If you already have ILR, why are you asking about PR? Don't understand.

And if you do have ILR, why are you asking about the Life in the UK Citizenship test? How did you get ILR?

I assume you got ILR under HSMP which does not require LIUK test.

sonia jahan, now that you have ILR there is no problem you claiming any benefits that your circumstances dictate you are entitled to.

How did you get your ILR?

OK, understand. Get the Life in the UK Citizenship test out of the way, and then when you can pass the "applicant was physically in the UK exactly 5 years before UKBA receive the Naturalisation application" test, you can indeed make that application (assuming other tests passed as well).

Will have to wait for one year after ILR, to satisfy the one year, no restriction requirement .
