CAN YOU PLS ADVISE ME , IF SHE SPENT 12 M WITH ILR CAN SHE APPLY NATURALISATION NOW? SHE GOT ILR BASED ON MY ILR.
Hi either you wait until you become British citizen to apply via 3 year root including atleast 1 year having ilr or let her spent a minimum 5
years in the country including atleast 1 year having ilr to apply via 5 year root.
Oops route* not root. it was talk and type
What is your route of naturalization and when(date) did your wife join you on that route?

Thanks both of you for reply.
she came in uk june 2011under my tire1 dependant and she got ILR through MY ILR and my son also got British citizenship through my ilr. can she apply now as she spent 12m on ILR???? or what route do u think would be?[/quote]
NO as I said wait until she has spent 5 years in total or 3 years if you get your British citizenship. Can't do anything about it until then...[/quote]
Hi, she can apply for naturalisation now as she came to the UK in 2011. Rules been changed in july 2012[/quote]
If you become British and your wife has moved to FLR (M) before 6 April 2014 then your dont have to wait for 5 years. you can apply under 3 years rules under 287(a)(i)(d).
