Hi David, I presume you applied via the postal route. How long did they take to process your ILR application? I have sent mine away about two weeks ago, and is still awaiting a response from them. On what basis did you get ILR?

David, I think they have stopped issuing any letter specifically addressed to you, and sometimes they neglect to even issue a standard unaddressed letter. Don't worry about it ... but might be an idea to photocopy your ILR sticker and keep that photocopy separate from the passport.

Naturalisation as British? Unless you are married to a British Citizen you need to have had your ILR for at least a year. Also, at the time of application, you must have been in the UK at least 5 years (or 3 years if married to British Citizen).

Actually before applying for naturalisation, you need to study, take and pass the Citizenship Test.
