I can't see how it would make any difference at all to his Naturalisation application. And of course you (and any children aged 18 or more) cannot apply for Naturalisation unless the Citizenship Test has been passed .... the same as for your husband.My husband has been thinking of us (me and five kids) getting naturalised together with him, and whether that would speed up or help in his application.
Your children will have certain rights as British citizens that they won't have as citizens of another EU state.virtual-writer wrote:My husband has been thinking of us (me and five kids) getting naturalised together with him, and whether that would speed up or help in his application.
I'm not very keen on the idea. We are European nationals and subsequently don't experience the problems he does with restriction of movement/travelling, etc.
Such as what?JAJ wrote: Your children will have certain rights as British citizens that they won't have as citizens of another EU state.
Are you sure about that?One fee (GBP200 now, GBP400 after 1 April) covers the registration of any number of children applying at the same time.
Yes, it does.Does it allow dual citizenship?
September 20061. When did your husband obtain his ILR?
We applied for ILR together as a family, so we all have it.2. If you arrived in the UK in August 2001, did you ever make any application for permanent residence (ILR)? If not, you would only have obtained PR/ILR automatically in August 2006 after 5 years of "exercising Treaty rights".
We've been told by the Home Office's Nationality group, that we can apply (by the earliest, for a chance to succeed) on 29th March, the date we applied for ILR (but that's just in his case, I think, we have it written on paper, addressed to my husband). We applied just in time before the change in required years of prior residence.you have to have permanent residence for 12 months before applying for naturalisation. You need to wait this time.

Yes I am. See:One fee (GBP200 now, GBP400 after 1 April) covers the registration of any number of children applying at the same time.
Are you sure about that?
Something here doesn't make sense. Are you saying you got your ILR on 29th March 2006, but your husband only got his in September 2006? But then you say you all applied together, so this is inconsistent information.1. When did your husband obtain his ILR?

...or a simpler explanation- they would have applied for the PR/ILR in March 2006, but the case was been decided in September 2006.JAJ wrote:Something here doesn't make sense.

Even if immigration control is not reimposed, it is possible that as the EU grows the current rules for EU nationals might be enforced much more strictly.JAJ wrote:- security of status should immigration control ever be reimposed on those from EU member states
