Naturalisation Application Query

Post by AvtarDhillon » Thu Jan 12, 2023 10:02 pm

Hello All,

I have been following this forum for a long time now and your advice to others has previously helped me during our ILR application. We are now planning to apply for our Naturalization application and I would like you experts to check the below details if we are alright to apply for our Naturalization.

Tier 4
Main - 08/01/2015 valid until 29/11/2016.
Deps - 23/06/2015 valid until 29/11/2016.

Tier 4 extension visa application - 18/11/2016.

Tier 4 visa granted.
Main - 09/01/2017 valid until 29/03/2020.
Deps - 09/01/2017 valid until 29/03/2020.


Tier 2 visa granted
Main - 06/03/2017 valid until 23/03/2020.
Dependants did not have to re-apply and convert from Tier 4 - Dep to Tier 2 - Dep as per HO email.


Tier 2 visa extension (biometrics delayed due to covid as appointments were not available)
Main and deps - 23/06/2020 valid until 19/03/2022.

ILR approved for Main and Dependants
07/03/2022

During Nov 2016 and Feb 2020, we had applied for our visa extension before the expiry of our previous visa however, the decision was delayed in 2016 because we opted for standard service and in 2020 due to covid lockdown, I hope this will not become an objection for our Naturalization application.

Please advise.

Regards

You have ILR - the route to it is not relevant for naturalisation.

You need to be on ILR to be able to apply for naturalisation, and of course satisfy all the requirements.
The pathway to ILR (Tier 1,2,etc, dependent, EU citizen, etc) is not relevant for naturalisation, as long as it was legal.
