I am just confused on the link below regarding below;
https://www.gov.uk/becoming-a-british-citizen
It says
I am sure the residency requirement was 3 years and not 5 years??And you must usually have:
lived in the UK for at least the 5 years before the date of your application
spent no more than 450 days outside the UK during those 5 years
My wife got her ILR in January 2013 and she originally came on her settlement visa in December 2010. I always thought residency requirement was 3 years and I remember reading this a few times in the past. My wife's ILR qualifying period was about 2 years from getting her settlement visa as oppose to the 4/5 year rule as is at the moment.
Any advice because she was going to apply in the summer and now she may wait until December if the 5 year rule applies to her.
Please advise because I am confused!!!
Many Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
