ILR Indefinite and further leave to remain
After you have lived legally in the UK for a certain length of time, you may be able to apply for permission to settle here.
This is known as ‘indefinite leave to remain’ (ILR). This sometimes includes cases in which a foreign-National spouse has been abandoned by his or her British spouse, is a victim of domestic violence or the Foreign-National has left the British Citizen because of divorce and is now facing uncertainty regarding their immigration status.
This is usually done if an authority abroad has asked you to provide a document that must be legalised.
We can help you get any document legalised for a fixed fee, contact our offices to discuss your requirements.
