British Citizenship

To apply for British Citizenship you must be living (legally) in the UK for 5 or more years and have indefinite leave to remain status for at least 1 year.

If you have been legally residing in the UK for at least five years and have held Indefinite Leave to Remain status for a minimum of 12 months, you may be entitled to apply for British citizenship.
