Good Afternooni Have Been Living In Uk Since 2009 As Eu Citizen I Have Settled Status Since 2019 And
Good afternoon I have been living in UK since 2009 as a EU citizen. I have "Settled Status" since 2019 and would like to apply for Dual Citizenship as soon as possible but I have been abroad from 04 April 2020 until 17 July 2020 (more then 90 days) due to the uncertainty and the cancelation of many flights. Would you advise me to apply for Dual Citizenship before 17 July 2021 or after 17th of July 2021 because I have been out of UK more than 90 days (105 days to be more exact) ? Is there any consideration for the effects of pandemic when responding to applications or 90 days is set in stone?Kind RegardsEmma
