Big News! UK Immigration Update ILR Route Could Change from 5 Years to 10 Years

📢 Big news for migrants in the UK! On 8 September 2025, the UK Parliament debated the controversial proposal to extend the Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) route from 5 years to 10 years. In this video, I break down what was said in Parliament, why it matters for care worker visa holders, skilled worker visa holders, and Hong Kong visa holders, and most importantly—what this could mean for you and your family’s future in the UK. Many migrants are worried: 👉 Will we have to keep renewing visas for 10 years? 👉 What does this mean for visa fees and the NHS health surcharge? 👉 Will this delay settlement, citizenship, and getting a British passport? 👉 How does this affect families who are already separated by visa restrictions? I also share the positives that came out of the debate, the concerns MPs raised, and what you can do now: from lobbying your MP, financial planning, to exploring other settlement options in countries like Canada, New Zealand, and Australia. This debate isn’t law yet—but it’s a turning point. Let’s unpack the reality, the risks, and the opportunities together. 💬 Drop your thoughts in the comments: Do you think the government will stick with the 5-year ILR route, or will they push migrants to 10 years? 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe and turn on the notification bell so you don’t miss future updates on UK immigration changes, migrant life, and diaspora opportunities. --- Timestamps: 00:00 – Big news on ILR debate 02:10 – Why the 10-year route is being discussed 05:45 – Costs, NHS surcharge & family impact 09:20 – MPs’ arguments and concerns 14:00 – What migrants can do right now 18:30 – Alternatives: going home or relocating elsewhere 22:00 – Final thoughts & call to action --- #UKImmigration #ILR #MigrantLife #CareWorkers #SkilledWorkers #BritishCitizenship #Diaspora #LifeInTheUK
