Hi All,
I would like to apply for my partner Naturalization and would like to seek your advise.
1). First entered in UK on 10th July 2013
2). Received ILR on 25th June 2018
Can apply for naturalization after 26th June 2019 has completed 12 months after ILR?
or has to wait till 10th July 2019 to complete the six years?
Thanks and Best Regards, SK

Yes, if you meet all the standard requirements.
or has to wait till 10th July 2019 to complete the six years?
No. Citizenship is based on 5 years residence immediately preceding your date of application.

Hello,
I received the approval for naturalization and waiting for citizenship ceremony..i was wondering if i could apply for uk passport online while waiting ( ceremony appointment is on 3rd june)..
I tried online application and stuck on question to provide naturalization / registration cerificate number. I believe this number is same as poll / cover note number in approval letter.
Could you please advise if its same and i can apply for passport before ceremony. My intension is save time as i have plan to travel. I believe once applied it will take upto 6 weeks to recieve passport.
Thanks Sk

You cannot apply for a British passport before you have become a British citizen, i.e. at the ceremony where you'll receive your certificate.
