Hi All,
My wife applied for naturalisation on 7th march after completing the 5 year residence requirement on 6th March but she signed and dated the form on 29.02.16 I.e. Before the 5 year period.
Do you think this could be a problem? Only asking as someone was returned the form to sign and re-date recently

"Date original documents returned: 06/02/2016 (in next day delivery envelope I enclosed with my application for returning of my original supporting documents) with letter dated 04/02/2016 requesting me to re-sign and re-date the last page of my application form saying that I did not met the requirement of 5 years from date of application with 4 days which I TOTALLY do not understand as I have been living in UK for the past 8 years"


Thanks

I think the date of signed the form is not important. The important date is when you actually apply for your application. If it is after 5 years of qualifying period then you should be fine.

many thanks for the reply.
