What is Indefinite Leave to Remain?
Indefinite Leave to Remain grants permanent residence in the United Kingdom and removes immigration time restrictions.
ILR allows eligible individuals to live, work and study in the UK without ongoing visa renewal requirements.
Applicants usually qualify after completing a lawful residence period under an eligible immigration category such as Skilled Worker, Family Route or Long Residence.
Legate Hub provides professional immigration assistance including eligibility reviews, residence calculations, evidence preparation and Home Office application management.
