If you've been in the UK illegally at any point, then the 10 years criteria affects you. So if you got your permit in April 2015, you have to wait till April 2025.

This is also provided the you've not had any questionable issues since then. Like drink driving, court sentences and the works.

What is your UK immigration history before this?

There are multiple requirements for naturalisation in the UK. The time based requirements are;

You need to
(a) have been physically present in the UK exactly five years to the day before the date of naturalisation application.
(b) (because your spouse is not a British citizen) have been resident in the UK for at least five years, with absences of less than 450 days in those five years.
(c) have absences of less than 90 days in the year immediately preceding the date of naturalisation application
(d) not have been resident in the UK illegally or worked in the UK illegally in any of the 10 years preceding the date of naturalisation application.

No status, after 2005, no visa, just appeal process and wait..

I'd suggest applying on or after the 10th anniversary of your marriage to your French spouse (assuming that you married within the UK) or the 10th anniversary of entering the UK after your marriage to the French citizen (if you married abroad).
