The UK’s Minister for Immigration, Liam Byrne, has announced a new levy for people applying for Citizenship and it isn’t as high as many were expecting – just £60.
The levy has been introduced to counter the rising level of expenditure that public services, such as the police and councils are having to raise to cope with the impact of current immigration policy.
At the same time, other changes were announced including the plan to knock up to two years off the time it takes to qualify for citizenship for migrants who take part in community work and charitable endeavours.
The UK is currently suffering from a skills shortage. Perhaps you can help? If you have skills and experience in areas deemed to be in demand, you may be able to migrate to the UK very easily. Check out www.workingin-uk.com for information and advice.
