Hi,

Sorry if this question has been answered before and could not find any topic related to my scenario.

I am currently on ILR and my wife came as my dependent and now she has completed 1 Year after being granted ILR and now she is eligible for Naturalization.

My daughter is already British Citizen and I am not applying for Naturalization at this moment.

I am filling out the Naturalization as a British Citizen ( Form AN) online form just for my wife.

On the Naturalization form , there is a question i.e. " Do you have any dependants not applying with you at this time?". So how to answer this question ?

As my daughter is already British Citizen, and I am not dependant on my wife, as my wife came to UK as my dependent , What should be the answer to this question as I am bit confused ?

Please help me on this query.

Many Thanks

Raj

Say No. as there are no dependents that aren't British citizens already.

Thanks contorted_svy for your reply.

.1. So is my understanding right for this question , that even though I am still on ILR and currently not British Citizen and not applying for Naturalization, I am not consider as my wife dependent for her Naturalization application in the context of UK immigration ?

.2. Also I am suppose to give details of 2 referees i.e. One must be a British citizen, over 25 years old, And other must be a professional person for e.g. Manager or Director of Limited Company. So can we give details of both of this referees in any order on application form ? or it has to be in specific order i.e. professional person first?

Please help me with this queries.

Many Thanks.

Correct

makes no difference as long as the referees are suitable.

Please help me with this queries.

Many Thanks.
