Thanks so much guys! He turns 65 in August so he won't have to do the LITUK bit. He has loads of British National friends and colleagues from when he used to live here so referees won't be a problem. I guess he'll just have to come and live here for 5 years before he can apply for Naturalisation :o ...
I was hoping someone might be able to help--my dad used to live in the UK in the 1970s and has ILR since 1976. He is now 64 and wants to come to live in the UK with me.
How long would he have to stay before he is eligible to apply for naturalisation?

I applied on 13th June as a spouse of BC.

Thanks!

For Vienna schengen visas aren't expensive so just carry on wit...
I applied on 13/6/15 for naturalisation (as spouse of a BC) and am still waiting for a decision. I wouldn't have cared how long it was taking except that I've booked a holiday to Australia for New Year's and was hoping to have a British passport by then. Now I'm thinking I should just apply for an A...

Stalem, there are mixed views now because of the changes in how Gerry's handles applications but ideally you would need to have your nikah nama attested.
