Rejected petition Retain current rules for Skilled Worker while applying for British citizenship

We call on the UK Government to retain the current requirement allowing individuals to apply for British citizenship one year after being granted Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) especially for those who have come to the UK on the Skilled Worker route .

More details

We also urge the Government to ensure that any future changes do not apply retrospectively to people who are already in the UK.
