Settlement In The UK

Immigration

Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR)

The UK allows migrants who have spent a sufficient period residing in the country to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR). This status grants permission to live in the UK indefinitely without time restrictions.

Key Features of Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR)

Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) is a highly sought-after immigration status in the UK, offering several key benefits for migrants. Once granted, ILR allows you to live and work in the UK without restrictions, making it an essential step towards permanent settlement and eventual British citizenship

1. No Time Limit

ILR grants the right to remain in the UK indefinitely, freeing individuals from the need to renew visas or meet further immigration requirements.

2. Freedom of Activities

ILR holders can work, study, or engage in business activities without any limitations. This flexibility enables individuals to pursue career advancements, educational opportunities, or entrepreneurial ventures freely.

3. Travel Flexibility with Restrictions

While ILR offers the freedom to travel abroad, it is essential to maintain ties to the UK.
- ILR holders must not spend more than two consecutive years outside the UK to retain their status.
- The UK must remain your main home, and extended absences could jeopardise your ILR.

Important Considerations

1. Impact Of Criminal Activity

Any involvement in criminal activities, including serious offences or breaches of immigration law, can lead to the revocation of ILR status. It is vital to maintain good character and adhere to UK laws to preserve your settlement rights.

2. Eligibility Criteria

ILR is generally available to individuals who have held specific visa categories leading to settlement, such as:
- Skilled Worker Visa
- Spouse or Partner Visa
- Innovator or Investor Visa
It is crucial to verify if your current visa qualifies for ILR before applying, as eligibility requirements vary depending on your visa type and length of stay in the UK
