        let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
        return newLength <= 1
        }else if textField == self.cardTextFieldTwo{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }

            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length

        else if textField == self.cardTextFieldTwo{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }

            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            return newLength <= 1
        }
        else if textField == self.cardTextFieldThree{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }

            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            return newLength <= 1
        }
        else if textField == self.cardTextFieldFour{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }
            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            return newLength <= 1
        }
        else if textField == self.cardTextFieldFive{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }
            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            return newLength <= 1
        }
        else if textField == self.cardTextFieldSix{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }
            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            return newLength <= 1
        }
        else if textField == self.cardTextFieldMonth{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }
            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            return newLength <= 2
        }
        else if textField == self.cardTextFieldYear{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }
            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            return newLength <= 2
        }
        return true



    }

Thanks in advance !!

Update

 if textField == self.cardTextFieldOne{


            guard let text = textField.text else {return true}
            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length

            if  (string == "") || string.characters.count < 1
            {
                return true //This also allow you to backspace
            }else if  (cardTextFieldOne.text?.characters.count)! >= 1
            {
                cardTextFieldOne.resignFirstResponder();
                self.cardTextFieldTwo.becomeFirstResponder()

                return false
            }


            return newLength <= 1




        }

Try using textField's delegate method

   func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
    if textField == self.cardTextFieldOne{
        textField.resignFirstResponder();
        self.cardTextFieldTwo.becomeFirstResponder();
        return false;
    }else if textField == self.cardTextFieldTwo{
        textField.resignFirstResponder();
        self.cardTextFieldThree.becomeFirstResponder()
        // if this is last field then return true
        return true
    }
}

Try to respond manually while textfield fill with single text.

if textField == self.cardTextFieldTwo{
            guard let text = textField.text else { return true }

            let newLength = text.characters.count + string.characters.count - range.length
            if textField.text?.utf16.count==1 { // adjust your condition here
              textField.resignFirstResponder()
              self.cardTextFieldTwo.becomeFirstResponder()
            }

            return newLength <= 1
        }

Note do this for all textfield

Use textFieldDidEndEditing method, than just call becomeFirstResponder() on next textField

func textFieldDidEndEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
    textField.becomeFirstResponder()
}

Simple Solution

Create Method which called every time you change the textField text like below you can see in the Image, while you right click on textfield, you see the Editing change drag it and create method like

 @IBAction func editing(_ sender: UITextField)
    {
        if sender == yourFirstTextField {
            if sender.text?.characters.count == 1 {
                yourNextTextField.becomeFirstResponder()
            }
        }

    }
