Oh wow!! That is great News!!John wrote:As long as the ILR is eventually granted, and took more than 3 months from application to the issue date, the Naturalisation application can be made from 15 months after the ILR date of application.
John wrote:Actually I should have added, as long as the issue of the ILR was not delayed by the applicant, for example being asked for additional information and not responding to the request on a timely basis.
Apart from that, yes the Naturalisation can be applied for 15 months after the application for the ILR.
Thanks John!!John wrote:Yes, still good for 15 months.
But, and this is not you, say someone applied and then a bit later UKBA wrote and asked for more information, and the applicant took ages to supply that information, and that was why the ILR was delayed, then the 15 month rule would not apply.
how interesting. i was there too for appointment at 9am. finished with case worker at 10am and i got my passport at 12.kate123 wrote:Congratulations on ilr. I was also in Croydon on 5th of march. I had an appointment at 9 and I got my ilr/passport by 10:30.
I came to UK on 8th of February 2006 (HSMP). The case worker told me that I have got a backdated ilr. So the date stamped on my visa is 8th February.
Not sure how it works. is it because of JR?
Kamalin congratulations on your ilr. Really interesting, because I finished with my case worker by 10:15. May be they process by token number as my token number was 003. What was your number?kamalin10 wrote: how interesting. i was there too for appointment at 9am. finished with case worker at 10am and i got my passport at 12.
haven't seen anyone collecting from window 22 before that...
I never knew that! Do you have any links to their website to prove this? or is it just a rue.John wrote:Actually I should have added, as long as the issue of the ILR was not delayed by the applicant, for example being asked for additional information and not responding to the request on a timely basis.

It's a very long story. That involved many court cases, letters, and many, many people, it sounds like you weren't one of us. But in summary-n_sharma50 wrote:Ok, Thanks for responding people.
However, I do not understand why home office will have two process for ILR.
Why would HSMP JR get their ILR backdated and not people on WP and Tier 1 combination.
When I came to UK in Nov 2004, the residency requiremnts were 4 years and later on they became 5 years. I waited 5 years and due to what ever reasons If i am not able to apply ILR, that does not mean that I should be treated differently then HSMP JR cases.
Can any one throw more light?
I have asked UKBA also about this and waiting answer but I do not think that there should be two standards as at the end of the day , both type of applicant are going for same ILR and benefits.
Yeah i looked it up! Its is Official, its on UKBA website: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/briti ... trictions/joh118 wrote:I never knew that!

~you made a successful application for indefinite leave to remain more than 15 months before your naturalisation application but the decision on your application was delayed due to something that was not your fault~
