Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps she is taking to ensure BNO visa dependents are offered routes to British citizenship.
The Hong Kong British National (Overseas) (BN(O)) route allows BN(O) status holders and their eligible family members to apply to come to the UK to live, study and work. After five years’ residence in the UK, BN(O) status holders and their eligible family members will be able to apply for indefinite leave to remain, followed by British citizenship after a further 12 months, where they meet the other statutory requirements for that.
