Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) allows individuals to live in the UK without time restrictions. With ILR, you gain the right to work in the UK in any job or business, including self-employment, while still complying with relevant laws and regulations. Additionally, ILR grants you the freedom to pursue education in the UK.
It's important to note that if you hold ILR status and stay outside the UK for two years or more continuously, your indefinite leave may lapse. For those who have obtained settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme, this period is extended to five years or more.
Furthermore, ILR can serve as a pathway to British citizenship. To qualify for citizenship, you typically need to have resided in the UK for at least 12 months after being granted leave. Our immigration lawyers can provide further details on the additional requirements for British citizenship.
