Hi all

does it make any difference if applying citizenship for family vs individual. one of my friend told me that applying individually take less processing time.

applying family - just need to fill cit0002e for adults, cit0003e for minor kids and if online calc not used then cit0407e form need to be filled


TIA

I am separating it just to have better chances as we know that if there is any delay in adult's application will delay the whole family hence i am applying with my son and my wife will apply next month separately. This way one person can secure the citizenship soon and if we have any issues for other application it wont matter much and can be dealt slowly (at least without much anxious).

I applied as a family (2 Adults & Minor) I was eligible last year in Feb but waited for my family till this year. Anyhow due to COVID, travel is blocked so there is no rush.
