The industry’s most lovable couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma welcomed a new member of the family on 15 February. Their son Akay was born in London, hence the discussion is whether Virat-Anushka’s son will get citizenship, India or London. So let us know today what are the rules regarding citizenship in UK i.e. becoming a UK citizen.
What are the rules regarding citizenship in UK?
Born in London, Akay’s parents Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma also have property there. Well, getting citizenship in UK is not that easy. Actually, according to UK rules, to get citizenship there, one of the parents i.e. father or mother must be a citizen of UK. Even if the parents have been living in that place for a long time, their child can still get UK citizenship. At the same time, if someone has gone to UK for better hospitality and better medical resources, then he cannot get citizenship there. Something similar is the case with Virat and Anushka’s son Akay. Although he can definitely get a UK passport.
How can one apply for citizenship?
The rule to get citizenship in UK is that a person should stay there for five years on a valid visa. If a person does this then he can apply for citizenship. After this, that person has to pass the test of English and general knowledge related to common life. However, after changes in the rules, people are now given temporary citizenship even after staying on a valid visa for five years.
Whereas if someone wants permanent citizenship of UK then he has to go through the point system there. In which that person is given some points on different issues. However, if he fails in something then his points are also deducted. If he is successful in this point rule then he gets permanent citizenship.
This is also a rule
There is also a rule of permanent citizenship in UK that if a person marries a girl or boy from UK, he can still get permanent citizenship. However, there are some different rules for this also.
