British Citizen Eligibility

Post by narasa » Wed Nov 20, 2019 9:41 am

Hi,
Quick question?
Case History:
• My wife initially came to the UK to as a dependent on my visa (HSMP) in 2010 and she went back to India in 2012 because she became pregnant. Also, her visa expired when she was in India.
• In 2013 I got my British passport.
• In January 2014 she came to the UK with my daughter as a dependent
• In Feb 2019 she got her Indefinite leave to remain

The question is can she apply for British Citizenship now or does she has to wait till Feb 2020 (i.e., 12mths after the ILR).
Thank you for your answers in advance .

She could have applied as soon as she got ILR. Spouse of British citizen do NOT have to wait 12 months if they meet the 3 years spouse of BC requirements.
