Can anyone help please. I am worried how brexit will affect applying for naturalisation after March 2019. I am due to apply September 2019. Will I need to aplly for settled status or I can still apply for naturalisation just like before brexit? Thanks.

Brexit has no effect on citizenship, which is controlled by domestic provision.

Citizenship is something you'll be able to apply for regardless of Brexit, as long as you've had PR for the past year.
However, after Brexit, all EU citizens will stop having PR and will start having settled status instead. No change to your rights as far as I can tell, just a change to the name of the document. You'll be able to apply for it very easily and for free on 30/04/2019 if you've already got PR.
