Jersey ILR to UK naturalisation

Post by chllz03 » Tue Apr 08, 2025 8:03 pm

I currently have ILR and I live in the Channel Islands. I want to apply for naturalisation in the UK because the processing time is quicker compared to here.

Can I apply online and just use my sister's address in the UK?

But you don't live in the UK .... you sign that all details are correct ....

As you live in Jersey you need to complete a paper application. Can't declare you live somewhere else.

Thank you! If I move to the UK, can I apply there? I do not have a BRP, or an eVisa account. I only have a stamp on my passport. I would be able to use this right? Or convert it to a UK ILR somehow...

You need to apply for a NTL and get an eVisa status, even to keep living in the Channel Islands I think.

Read the follwing page https://www.gov.uk/guidance/online-immi ... atus-evisa especially the section "If you have another physical document" on how to obtain an NTL.
