Citizenship Application

Post by rext76 » Sat Dec 21, 2019 9:50 am

Hi,
I am about to apply for British citizenship and I was wondering if you could clarify something for me.
In April 2019 I got ILR/Settled Status as I am from EEA and I have been living in UK for the last 6 years.
This September I got married to a British citizen so as a result I could apply for British citizenship.
Do I still need to apply for British Residency / BRP ? Is the BRP required as document when yu make your Citizenship application?

Many thanks!

No.
Is the BRP required as document when yu make your Citizenship application?
You need proof of your PR/settled status only and your marriage cert if applying as the spouse of a British citizen.

You also need to make sure you meet the 3 year residence requirement including the absence limit and being physically present in the UK at the start of the 3 year period based on the date you apply online.
