Nationality

 

Becoming British can happen in a number of ways. You may actually already be British and simply need to have that entitlement recognised. You may have lived in the UK for many years as a child and that may lead to an entitlement. For most migrants, Naturalisation as a British Citizen happens after an acquisition of freedom from any time limits on a right to reside (most usually satisfied by the grant of ILR or Permanent Residence), which in turn requires a specified period of residence in the category in which you have been granted permission to enter or stay in the UK.We offer the following services with regards to nationality:
