I Have British Citizenship Because My Father Was Born Here, But I Was Born In South Africa My Son,

  • Posted on

I have British citizenship because my father was born here, but I was born in South Africa. My son, also born in South Africa moved here with me in 2016 and was granted ILR immediately because he was 15 when we immigrated. He is now 20, has lived here for just over 4 years and is looking to commence his citizenship application. Does he need to have lived here for 5 years or can he apply now already? Thanks in advance.
