hi

applied for ILR 10 years basis couple of month ago....
last week i got my visa with issue date of about 10 days ago,
the quesiton is my last visa expired about 1.5 month ago ( i send my applicaiton before then and home office recieved it on time, but there was problem with payment they sent it back and I resent it again, but this time it was 2 weeks beyond the old visas expiry and lawyer said this is not a problem as HO alredy aware.... )

I am planning to apply for the citizenship in 12 month time, will this be a problem?

i got my ILR long residency ( 10 years legal stay ) , and i undrestand that I need to wait for 1 year before I can apply for british citizenship.

I have friend who claims one of the lawyers submits applicaiotn to home office after 3 month of being on ILR and can get me british citizenship, I cant see any document online in regards to the 3 month law ... ( perhaps only applies to asylum seekers? or some sort of exception?)

any of you heard of this?

thanks

1. No.
2. Discretion to disregard immigration time restrictions during the last 12 months.
