Indefinite leave to remain (ILR) allows you to live and work in the UK. It’s also referred to as “settlement”. Once you’ve obtained ILR status, you are no longer subject to UK immigration controls – you can enter and exit the country whenever you like.
Gaining ILR through spending time living and working in the UK is the first step. Once you’ve achieved ILR or “settled status”, you can then apply for British citizenship.
Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK 2020 [Family Timeline to ILR from Tier 2 Visa] –
British citizenship or naturalisation gives you the right to a British passport and the full rights of a UK citizen.
Here are the requirements to apply for British citizenship:
1. Check that you’ve held ILR for at least 12 months.
After you’ve held ILR status for at least one year, you can apply for citizenship. For example, the date of issue on your Biometric card was 09/04/2020 as in my case, this means that I can submit my naturalisation application on 10/04/2021.
If you’re married to a British citizen, you don’t need to wait a year to apply.
2. Ensure you meet the residency requirements.
You must not have:
Spent more than 90 days outside the UK in any 12 months.
Spent more than 450 days outside the UK during your five years of UK residency.
3. Meet the “good character” requirement.
To become a British citizen, you’ll have to be of good character. During your time spent living in the UK, you’ll need to have followed the laws and respected its rights and freedoms. This means doing things like paying your income tax and National Insurance contributions, among others.
I would suggest that you read this book for more information. I’ll provide the link to the description to where you can get it.
