For naturalisation it is the 5 years immediately before the date of application for BC that is counted, this needs to included 12 months on ILR (unless married to a British Citizen).

As I have already advised, you can apply on or after 2nd August 2014 and the relevant residence period will be Aug 2009 to Aug 2014
