(thank you for looking at my post and also for any replies)
I am posting to find out the procedure (documents, how do I begin, etc) on securing the citizenship from having granted ILR status.
I obtained ILR status through long residency and currently in the qualifying period of applying for citizenship.
(1) can I apply for the British Passport the Same time as I submit the application for citizenship or does it have to be done as a separate application
(2) do i need a solicitor or a lawyer for this application or any parts of it, or am I able to do it myself
(3) what sort of information do I need or evidence do I provide
(4) what are the application ways and methods to apply and what is the usual time frame for processing
(5) does the year on ILR count from the day I first entered the UK or from the date the ILR was granted
Any additional information is gladly appreciated in advance and thank you for looking
P.S.
I do apologize in advance if I have posted this in the wrong topic, and I have also looked at the gov.uk website, but I need more clarity
