It's in my Canadian passport and I was wondering - when my Canadian passport runs out if I decide to go for another Canadian passport would my IRL still be good in my old passport? Obviously the other option is just going for the British passport which I'll more then likely do but just wanted to know my options
Also if your have an ILR through marriage to a british citizen I know you can apply a year later but it's ok to wait right? That's probably a really stupid question but if there's one thing I've learned from this process it's that it's best to be informed!
Oh and you can go to university here with an ILR right?
if i understood your questions correctly ( the ones you did not answer yourself) it is ok to wait, there is no requirement for you to get a citizenship. in fact a lot of people whose domicile country does not allow dual citizenship decide not to pursue a UK citizenship route. However, keep an eye on immigration news as the government frequently changes the relevant legislation and it may become more and more difficult to obtain naturalization in the future
Yes, you can go to a University with an ILR, you can work, etc. An added bonus is that you shall be paying lower fees than international students ( however, i am not 100% sure about the latter, so please check with the university in question)
Hope it helps) Good luck x
