Hi

When applying for Citizenship, what kind of conviction is held against the applicant when applying.
My wife got a fine from court for using the wrong train ticket, would this go against her?
If so, what are the consequences, a delay in being able to apply?

Thanks

Hi
Once my wife has been granted her ILR after being in the UK for 2 years, what happens if she then lives with me abroad for more than 2 years but then wants to come back to the UK?

Need to re-apply for anything or does the ILR last for longer than 2 years

Thanks
