Excess absences in the final year

Post by sudeepforu » Mon Feb 11, 2013 8:04 pm

Hi Guys,

I have ILR, However I might have to be outside UK for 4-5 months in the final year.

I know that I will not qualify for final year if I have absences more than 90 days.

Is it feasible for me to apply for citizenship after I come back and spend 12 more months for citizenship

or

Do I have to apply exactly after 1 year of ILR?

Thank You

You don't 'have' to apply for Naturalisation. You can apply at any point after 1 year on ILR. Of course, given that you meet all the standard requirements.
