Many people have been asking this question. Please use the search function, as there is already a thread started only a few weeks ago on this very issue.adviceseeker wrote:I have read that the new bill will be introduce by January 2009..My question is, will people that already have ILR(permanent residency) will be affected with this new rules? or this only affect to someone that still hasnt got one?
Just a bit confused because they are not talking to someone that already have ILR.
Thank you.
This thread and this one both talk about the bill timeline (with links).adviceseeker wrote:thanks Sakura I was looking for that but sad to say I coudnt find it.
If u look at the draft bill its clearly mentioned ILR /PR will be issued after the probation period residecny and Probation citizen is time limit but ILR/PR are no time limit they can swicth into British Citizeship later dates. The only differnce is usuly people gets ILR after tmeporary residency but now people will qulify for ILR/PR/BC after probation citizenship period. So basicaly u dont need to worry becase u wont go back to probation period coz you already have no time limt residency which cant be revoked once its issued untill you committ some serious crime.adviceseeker wrote:I have read that the new bill will be introduce by January 2009..My question is, will people that already have ILR(permanent residency) will be affected with this new rules? or this only affect to someone that still hasnt got one?

That was purely for the 'theoretical' impact assessment. The new Bill will be speedly passed through and applicable by the end of this year!rg1 wrote:From other thread
Citizenship bill January 2009
New bill implementation date mentioned as : December 2010
I agree that it will be applicable by the end of the year. However I don't think that the Government will have a particularly easy ride with this Bill. It has started life in the House of Lords and no doubt lots of technical amendments will be passed there, and also some more substantive ones, even before it gets to the Commons.The new Bill will be speedly passed through and applicable by the end of this year!
Sorry, I totally disagree! Knowing what I do about the way the voluntary sector works I have a strong suspicion that there already are those in the voluntary sector who will be planning to organise themselves specifically to utilise all this "free labour" that is going to become available ..... and will be advertising their availability and making it very clear that a reference will be available on completion of the alloted number of hours.It will be quite embarassing at the end, if the authority finds that you have done this volunteering work with the expectation for reference.
Easy! Do the voluntary work at the weekends! Something no doubt the voluntary organisations alluded to above will take into account.Imagine that you are contracting self employment work far away from your home, how can you do an hour's work without being away from your work for the whole day.
Thanks John. This is comforting!there already are those in the voluntary sector who will be planning to organise themselves specifically to utilise all this "free labour" that is going to become available ..... and will be advertising their availability and making it very clear that a reference will be available on completion of the alloted number of hours.
well not realy clear about that but ofcourse if some one want to take PR then he/she need to renew it once its get about to expire in order to main the stay. but its intersting question for knowledge many things not clear in the bill there will be debate on it in the hose of common and then house of lords these matters will appear and might some changes will occure in the bill( techniqally correction )Jk2007 wrote:The new bill says that after one year of probationary citizenship one can apply for citizenship. And those who want to take PR should spend 3 years of probationary citizenship.
Question: When probationary citizenship is issued, will it be issued for 3 years or issued for one year to be renewed annually?
If they are not trying to contribute and are just there for the 12 hour certificate I'll personally be happy for them to fail in their application.merely being a member of parents-teacher association may not be enough, whta you have actually contributed matters.
