Nationality Help

Post by Junaidbinyasin » Sun Jun 12, 2011 7:34 pm

Hi everyone,

I need your help, As I have few questions? I got my ILR after 10 years legal residance last year in June. Now its nearly year, I have asked few solicitors and one of them said I have to wait for 5 years after my ILR so I can apply for British Nationality, and second one said no I can apply after one year of having ILR.

Now my quetions are hereunder,

When can I apply for Nationality after 1 year or 5....?

If its 1 year what form do I need to fill, is it AN or .......?

How much does it cost now if I apply at the end of June?

lastly how long will it take or I mean how long they are taking these days?

Bonus question, if you know what documents do I need to submit? (this is optional question)

I'll be very greatfull to you all for reading such a long list of questions. I'll be very thankful to you all for your replies.
