1 yr post ILR (apply for Naturalisation)

Post by plabo » Tue Oct 31, 2017 3:27 pm

Hello

This is rather an odd query but me and my wife applied for ILR through Premium service on 28th Feb 2017 and we were successful the same day and issued the approval letter.

Later when got our BRP, my issue date printed is 28th Feb 2017 and her for the followng day i.e is 1st March 2017.

Can we apply for naturalisation through NCS on 1st March 2018 then ???

OR

knowing that my wife's BRP states 1st March 2017, do we apply on 2nd March 2018 and on wards?

The reason I am asking this is I need to plan some travelling for a week in March and in my council, appointments are taking a long time and also in the nearby councils. So need to prepare things accordingly.

1st March is fine provided you each meet the requirements individually.

Thanks CR001.

So I will go by the 28th Feb approval letter date (i.e one year after it) and ignore what is on the BRP then?

For the sake of 1 or 2 days, apply in March.

Both of you can actually apply on Feb 28th. HO operate on calendar date. Your eligibility runs from February 28 2017 to February 27 2018 and your wife runs from March 1 2017 to Feb 28 2018.

As CR001 advised, March 1 2018 is ok for both of you to apply.
