A Practical Guide to Long Residence Applications Under the Immigration Rules - Paperback
by Rajiv Sharma (Author)
Immigration is a fact of life. There are a variety of reasons why one may wish to relocate including to seek safety, to seek further education, for work or for family etc.
A natural consequence of relocation is the upheaval of an established life and the establishment of new roots. It follows therefore that the longer an individual remains in one place the deeper their roots in that place will have settled. This natural consequence is recognised within the Immigration Rules which set two alternate criteria for those wishing to settle on the basis of roots not set out in other categories (i.e. those who cannot apply on the basis of family life, for example).
This book considers the proper interpretation of the rules concerning lawful residence in the United Kingdom and how an applicant can successfully navigate those rules in order to obtain indefinite leave to remain based on lawful residence. It provides an insight into issues that arise whilst making an application as well as providing guidance on how to resolve issues for those looking to make an application in the future.
