Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) provides a pathway to permanent residency in the UK. It allows individuals to live and work in the UK without time restrictions and access public services on the same basis as British citizens. Applicants must meet specific residency requirements, including a minimum period of lawful residence and compliance with UK immigration rules.
The application process includes providing evidence of continuous residence and passing the Life in the UK test. Achieving ILR is a significant step towards obtaining British citizenship and securing long-term residency rights in the UK.
