Hey,

We are in the process of applying for naturalisation, my wife is an A8 national exercising treaty rights since 28/08/2007 WRS, we got married on 31/08/2007. we have follow all the steps up to achieving PR in December last year. My question is: Do we need to wait until December to send the application or we could have sent it on 28/08/2013 as that would be 6 years of her exercising treaty rights?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Jay

Hey Amber,

Thanks. if I understand correctly then yes we could send applications now, providing all the same information that we enclosed for PR.. is that correct?

1. Apply after 6 years in the UK. This includes 5 years of exercising treaty rights + 1 year with PR. You will need to provide proof of the 5 years (similar to what is needed in EEA3/EEA4 application). Form AN has a specific section (Q2.4-2.6) for such application.

Yes and providing you meet the other standard requirements (click) including being physically present in the UK 5 years before the Home Office receive your application, assuming you are not British.

Yes all good, not British but in the UK since 2004. We are also applying for our daughter naturalisation, she was born in the UK in 2007.. School teachers wont sign the reference form, not priest nor doctor would do that.. any advice on this?

appreciate your time
