Earliest to apply for Naturalisation

Post by Adykhan » Mon Aug 22, 2016 11:29 am

Hi i wonder if some one could help , I know for ILR we could apply before 28 days but can we also apply for Naturalisation before 28 days ,
I got ILR on 10 Nov 2015, through 5 years Tier 1 route.
I'll highly appreciate your valuable advice

Regards

Unless married to a British citizen you must have held ILR/PR a full year before applying. This isn't like a visa where you can apply X days early.

Citizenship is not a visa; different rules apply.

So no, you will be refused and will lose the not inconsiderable application fee.
