Indefinite Leave to Remain (10 Years Lawful Residence)

If you have spent a period of 10 years living in the UK continuously and lawfully you may be able to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR). ILR provides the ability to stay in the UK indefinitely. Once you’ve been granted ILR, if you leave the UK for more than 2 years you will lose your ILR.

*Please note that this list is non-exhaustive and further information may be required and advised upon seeing our instruction*

• You must be 18 or over at the time of application.
