Non-EEA.. Time to apply for Citizenship?

Post by mkshenley » Thu Dec 23, 2010 4:37 pm

Hi ,looking for advice about time to apply for naturalisation.

Could I use discretion to apply for naturalisation (which is 15 months after application for ILR) instead of waiting till August 2011?

Discretion to disregard immigration time restriction in last 12 months before naturalisation in case of:

-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;
or
-you had an application for asylum or leave to remain refused but later approved as the initial decision was incorrect. This initial mistake resulted in a delay in you being able to apply for indefinite leave to remain.
