Assuming you are a British citizen:

If he entered UK for the first time in Feb. 08, then he cannot apply for naturalisation before the 3rd anniversary of the date of entry in Feb. 08.

Thank you for your quick reply, yes he entered UK in feb 08 and ILR was granted march 10' so think as long as he has been here for minimum of three years then we are safe to apply? I had it in my head that for some reason we had to wait for a year after ILR but think I'm just going crazy over dates, many thanks
