    Well here's a warm welcome back aboard the good ship Filipino UK

    Maybe you've completed your immigration and are already a British Citizen and a member of the exclusive club of dual nationals ??

    Do share more of your journey

    For me to become a British citizen I need to live here for 6 years. I came here in 2010 so I am half of the years I need for me to have one. Coming here has been very difficult. I need to pass an English exam, apply for a visa and the long wait for having one. I first join this forum asking of the things I need to expect coming here. And now I've been here for 3 long years and still counting. Life in the UK is different and challenging. I am loving it but I still misses home at times.

    Why 6 years satchuna?

    Did you arrive on a spouse/fiance visa?

    Have you obtained ILR? (indefinite leave to remain)

    Because if you have then you only have to be ordinarily resident for 3 years to be nationalised as a British Citizen, and as you say you have been here 3 years already then you would qualify.

    Anyway would like to welcome you back to our friendly forum...
