Hi: I also just got my ILR yesterday and have now called a checking service to make an appointment to send of my AN form (Naturalisation Form). This way i can keep my original passports and travel if need be. It shouldnt take more than 6 weeks to 6 months to recieve a reply for citizenship. Good Luck!

If you got your ILR yesterday, you have to wait 365 days to apply for British citizenship as you must have completed 1 year of ILR before applying for naturzlisation and you must have also been in the country for 5 years. For example some other visas (student, work permits etc) allow you to process further application 28 days advance. But for nautralisation, the earliest you can apply is on the 1-year-1-day th as far as I know.

Dear All
