Can we go out side the UK right after ILR approval

[Babuska]

Hi all,

Most of people looking for ILR also look for naturalization/citizenship once day. I have some questions not so clear on:
- Can we go outside UK, example for business trip or visit family at home country during the qualified period to naturalization?
- If so, how long we can out the UK country?
- If we go out country for any reason, then do that period counted to the time for naturalization or need to exempt from that period?
What is the safe option?

Thank you for reading and providing the suggestion.
