Naturalization/Citizenship application after ILR SET (M)

Post by Sahasan » Sun Sep 10, 2023 12:01 am

I just got my ILR SET (M) last week. i had couple of queries regarding citizenship application. It would be great if someone could clarify it

- is it true that you can apply for citizenship right after you get ILR via partner/spouse route?
if yes then what documents are required for the application because i dont seem to find relevant information online. and what are the requirements?

many thanks

It's not the route to ILR itself - it's the fact that you're married to a British citizen. If that's the case you can indeed apply for naturalization straight away after getting ILR.

I see. And what are the requirements to make naturalization application if applying straight after ILR and married to a British citizen?

Thanks

Have you reviewed the AN guidance: https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... n-guidance
You'll need your spouse's British passport (personal detail pages) or naturalisation certificate and the marriage certificate. This will normally be shown on the list of required documents you will get when you submit your application.
