Hi everyone,
I was student for 8 years and then EEA family member for 2 years, altogether I completed 10 years
And applied for ILR(10years) now I have it. when applying for British passport 1 year from now do I still need my EEA family member or I am self sufficient as I have ILR and I didn't follow 5year residency route?

By acquiring ILR(LR), you are back under the UK Immigration Rules and are self-sufficient for the purposes of applying for citizenship.

You can apply after 1 year on ILR, provided you meet all other requirements, such as good character, etc.
