Naturalisation is the most common route to British citizenship for adults. You must usually have Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) or settled status, have lived in the UK for at least 5 years, and meet residency and good character requirements. GMS Immigration helps ensure your application is complete, compliant, and accurately reflects your personal journey.
Processing times can vary, but on average, it may take 3 to 6 months after submitting your application. We help you avoid delays by preparing a strong, error-free application and tracking progress at every step.
Yes, children may be eligible through registration, particularly if they were born in the UK to non-British parents who have since obtained settled status or citizenship. GMS Immigration handles family applications with care and ensures your child’s future in the UK is secure.
Yes, you can apply after 12 months of holding ILR or immediately if you have settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme and are married to a British citizen. GMS Immigration ensures your timeline, documents, and eligibility are perfectly aligned before you apply.
You may be eligible for British Nationality if you have Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) or Settled Status, have lived in the UK for a qualifying period (usually 5 years), passed the Life in the UK Test, meet English language requirements, and are of good character.
