CHANGE IN LAW MEANS MANY PEOPLE CAN BE GRANTED BRITISH CITIZENSHIP IN THE UK

The Government has introduced a new Citizenship law which will affect many people from other Countries. The new Act implements the Government’s proposals for a new ‘Path to Citizenship’.

Under the new Act a person can apply for Citizenship if they were born any time before 1983 and at some time before 1983 they would have been a Citizen of the UK and Colonies by descent either from its Mother or Father. This means many people living either in the UK or overseas will be entitled to British Citizenship.

Another part of the new Act affects people settled in the UK and who wish to become naturalised in to British Citizens. In the year 2011 people will have to earn their right to become a British Citizenship. That is why it is important all those people with Indefinite Leave to Remain and who qualify for Citizenship now ensure they apply this year before the change of law.
