Hiya, Im a BNO from Hong Kong. May I ask if you have any nationality other than BNO? Do your parents and sister have BC since they have obtained ILR long time ago?

Hi There, I try to give you an idea about working and living in Switzerland. I am not sure about things in France but have been living in 2 cantons in French Switzerland for a few years.
