Application for wife citizenship, after obtaining British passport

Post by tarig_abu » Fri Mar 16, 2018 8:10 pm

Hi,

My wife and I lived in UK for more than 5 years now. I have got my British Passport just now. My wife had her ILR last week. I had the ILR through 5 yrs residence, and my wife the same as dependant of me.

My question is can I apply for citizenship for my wife based on being married to British, and lived with me more than 3 years ?

Thank you

Yes, assuming she meets all the standard requirements, including permitted absence during the 3 year qualifying period.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
