Hello folks
has anyone heard about any plans to scrap the 10 years law for settlement?
anything about that in the new immigration bill?
Regards

hmmmm there was no mention of any changes to the 10 years rule under the new immigration bill. please correct me if i am wrong. otherwise just confirm that you are sure you read it somewhere under the new bill.

Regards

I've read it on another thread, might be the long immigration bill thread -- that it's not on the bill because it will just cease to exist. There will be no 10 year or 14 year long residency avenue to settlement once the bill comes into effect.

I am not sure if they plan to scrap it or not but if they do i dont think it would be in the bill. they would just deal with it the same way they did when they increased the the ILR for WP/HSMP/Ancestor etc. Remember the '10 year rule' and the '14year' one for that matter are not about citizenship but about getting ILR and as far as i understand, issues for for ILR (lentgh and what qualifies for ILR) can be dealt with using 'secondary legislation'.
