PR status date to apply for British citizenship

Post by lucky16k » Mon Oct 01, 2018 1:07 am

Hi,

So I'm originally from Malta, a European country and been living in the UK since August 2008. After 10 years I've made my mind up to apply for British citizenship and get a dual passport.

So kind of started the British citizenship by naturalisation back in August but realised I realised I had to get the permanent residence status date confirmed first before I go ahead which I just did and received the PR status on Friday (1 month after the application). Here is the link of my PR status:

So I read the letter that I've received and I'm a bit confused but I'm sure it's me overthinking. The date stated on the PR is 11th August 2013 and I do not need to have to wait for another 12 months before I submit the British Citizenship application right? Those 12 months equate to 11th August 2014 so I should be fine!

I'm asking this because I do not want to get my application refused which would cost about £1,300 and lose all that money for something silly which I did not check.

Look forward to your replies and your help is much appreciated.

That should be fine. Don't forget that you also have to show that you satisfy the residence requirements, etc., for naturalization.
