That depends on what you want.

What do you want? The right to reside in the UK indefinitely? British citizenship?

Become a British citizen - How to apply
Were you physically present in the UK three years ago? What are your absences in the past three years and in the year gone by?

No you do not if your spouse is British. Remember that you have to be physically present in the UK 3/5 yrs prior to your application.

You can only apply for naturalization and passport together if you are using NCS or NDRS.

Hi RenuTimilsina12,
Yes you have to enter the details of all the application made from outside OR inside the UK. Please enter as much information as possible and by any chance of you're not sure just enter the approximate date and write in a cover note. Dont worry as they have all these details anyways.

Thanks

You still need to call the council or check if they have online services to book the appointment. Council operates different to each other. Some accepts weekend services some doesn't. If Southwark council is not picking up the phone, try another nearby council and see if that works.

p.s: The NDRS fee is different is every council. Unless you want to pick the one with cheapest option. Most of them will charge you separately for sending the documents to HO depending on the weight. However some doesn't separately charge you for it.
