Frequently Asked Questions
Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) is a form of permanent residence. If you are granted with ILR status, you will be able to remain in the UK without any restrictions.
Typically, you can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain after you have spent five years lawfully living in the UK. In some circumstances, you could be eligible for ILR after just three years of residence. Those who have been living under an Investor Visa or Innovator Visa will be eligible for ILR after three years rather than the usual five.
It goes without saying that you must not have breached any immigration conditions whilst you have been living in the UK in order to be eligible for ILR.
The main ILR requirements are as follows:
- No criminal convictions or breaches of immigration laws
- A pass in the Life in the UK test
- Ability to prove that you can understand and communicate in English to a level of B1 as set by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages
