A possible advantage of naturalising as British on the basis of residency rather than (presumably?) registering on the basis of your mother is that if you naturalise you will be a British citizen otherwise than by descent, which means that any children born to you outside the UK will be automatically British by descent. Of course, depending on your circumstances and future plans, this may or may not be important to you, but it could be something worth putting into the balance.VictoriaS wrote:Can you hold off getting your citizenship for 5 months???
Yep...as long as her husband is British, she has ILR and has been in the UK for 3 years, she can apply for naturalisation.Siggi wrote:VictoriaS,
Thank you for your great bit of advice, so you are saying the moment I become a British National and my wife has her ILR she to can then become Naturalised, regardless of how long she has had her ILR?
Fantastic!! Yepy Yepy!!
Yes, the requirement for her, as the spouse of a British citizen, would be that she has 3 years' residence in the UK and that she has ILR on the day that she applies (plus the other requirements, of course). In particular, it's worth noting that she does not have to have been the spouse of a British citizen for the whole of the 3-year period (which is a common misinterpretation).Siggi wrote:... so you are saying the moment I become a British National and my wife has her ILR she to can then become Naturalised, regardless of how long she has had her ILR?

Only the fact that it demands a lot intellectually from the applicant (especially as the Home Office & Embassy are easily confused about the rules). Plus the travel costs, and in some cases, a visa to get to the Republic of Ireland.Siggi wrote:VictoriaS
What do you see as the pitfalls in the pporn method?
He means you have to be on your game to use this method. It is not for the faint of heart and unless you know the rules inside and out and are willing to discuss forcefully with all the parties involved, it will be mentally draining since you will have to keep track of all the moving parts in this methodology. The ppron method is not standard, they didn't envision issuing visas in this manner so they are not going to be inclined to issue it to you in this manner, only if you force their handSiggi wrote:JAJ
What do you mean by a lot of "Intellectuallly from the applicant"?
Why doe's one have to apply from the Republic of Ireland?
Please could you explain intelligently the whole ppron method?
