My filipina friend said to me that once you completed your 5 years here (workpermit visa) then applied for ILR and granted, you can apply for British citizen right away? I thought 1 year ILR then BC my african colleagues said that to me as well bec when she applied for her ILR the PEO told her that she can apply BC that day if she wants, she wants but she got no money anymore after paying £950 for her ILR.

Anybody can confirm this? Thanks
