Date eligible to apply

Post by milimolo » Mon May 11, 2026 12:45 pm

Hi all
Just wanted to check what date is best to submit the citizenship application.

- I entered the country on 3rd August 2021 on a GTV visa.
- I received my ILR on 27th September 2024.

Should I submit the application after 3rd August to complete the 5-year residency, or after 27th September?

I think the answer is the 3rd August, but I am not sure.

You can apply on 3rd August 2026, after five years of residence in the UK.
