Hello Gurus,

My Husband just got British Citizenship ( British Passport) a few days ago . I got ILR a few days ago. Now my question is , Do i have to wait like my husband for 12 months after ILR or can i apply right away for Naturalization as my Husband has got a British Passport. Thanks :?

You do not have to wait if you meet the 3 years residence requirements to apply as spouse of BC.

Yes, physically present 3 years ago on the same date you submit and apply online (not on holiday abroad even) as well as meeting the absence limits.
