The British Government has published the country’s new Immigration Bill. If you wish to stay in UK you will have to prove that you are committed to the country. Only then can you earn British citizenship. According to the Government the new Immigration Bill will establish an immigration system that is ‘firm but fair’.

With the introduction of this bill you can notice a whole new approach to British citizenship. An immigrant who has stayed in UK for five years can apply for either British Citizenship or permanent resident. Someone who wishes to become a British citizen must be able to speak English. If one fails to meet these criteria his or her request for citizenship can be denied.

In order to know about the law in detail you should hire an immigration attorney. If you are wondering how to get the contact details of UK lawyers visit any immigration attorney directory to get details about lawyers.
