Neutralization application for wife and Document Requirement

[ILR_MN1]

Hi All,

I received citizenship in 2017 through Tier 1 General. My wife was my dependent on Tier 1 visa which was renewed in 2016 and received ILR this year (2019). I just wanted to know if she can apply for British Citizenship now or does she needs to wait for a year before applying.

Many thanks,

[CR001]

She can apply now if she meets all the requirements (absence limits, physically present 3 years ago) etc.

Many Thanks CR001,

I believe it doesn't matter what my status was or she has received ILR through Tier 1 dependent. As I am British Citizen now, she can apply for Citizenship?

[CR001]

Correct but she must still meet the 3 year requirements

Many thanks,

Are there any specific requirements for documents or should I only include the document required in the checklist as she never worked in UK.

[CR001]

Submit what the form asks for.

Employment is NOT required or mandatory for citizenship.

Dear All,

Apologies if this question is asked previous.

I acquired british citizenship through Tier 1 General Route in 2017. My wife got her ILR in May 2019. Just wanted to know if she can apply for neutralization now or does she needs to wait for 12 months.

Also do we need to provide all documents as we did at the time of ILR e'g' six address proof, my payslips etc or does she only need to send the basic documents like passport, marriage certificate with on proof of address etc.

many thanks,

[CR001]

Topics merged.

You were already advised last year that she could apply as soon as she got ilr if she met the 3 year requirements!!

No re ilr documents. You are not applying for a visa or ilr. Citizenship is different laws, minimal docs.

Thanks CR001 for merging and answering the query.

I have now submitted the online application and need your help with following questions.

They have only asked for six documents to provide including Proof of freedom from Immigration time restrictions. (What is this)?

Do i need to provide last three month bank statements (although not asked by them) or any other proof of residence in the UK e,g, council tax bill?

I believe no other document or bank statement is required to proof of living together?

Many thanks,

No!!

Not required, you are not repeating the ILR process.

Hi CR001,

In the document checklist, they have stated I need to provide "proof of living in the UK", will it be ok to cover this if I provide three month bank statements?

Thanks,

Thanks,

Provide scanned passport(s) covering the qualifying period, which will have entry/exit stamps.
