Hi All,

I have British Passport for myself and my family and now i wanted to go back to India with my family to settle for sometime.

I may return to Britian in 10 years time. Please tell me:

1) Can i come back and settle in UK without applying for VISA

Regards

Yes once you have British passport you can come back at any time without any visa but you won't get any benefits you receive now and once you cone back you may have to re register for services like nhs etc

Hi RNR79,

Thanks for your swift reply...

Do i need to come once in two years?

What do you mean, i wont get any benefit? Is that Child Benefit/Tax credit and so on?

Do I not been considered as a British Citizen then?

All British citizens have the right of abode in the United Kingdom.

As noted above, as a British citizen you have a right of abode in the United Kingdom, and so you can enter (and leave) the UK whenever you like.

There are certain benefits, though, that derive from being resident in the UK rather than being a citizen of the UK, and others that you would have to re-register for on your return after a protracted period away: that's what rnr79 was talking about.
