If you are spouse / partner of a British citizen, you may apply anytime you wish. Else, you may apply after 12 months of being granted settlement.

Well, all I can say is - what you heard is not correct.

You have already fulfilled the "10 years lawful stay" residential requirement and been granted settlement on that basis. You may now apply for naturalisation as mentioned above.
