Relocating to India

Post by Rashmi01 » Wed Jul 05, 2023 4:30 pm

Hi, I am currently on Skilled worker visa and planning to relocate to India for good this month. Is there anything I need to do before I leave UK? Do I need to inform UKVI or HM Revenue & Customs that I am leaving the country ?

No you do not need to do so.

Any intention of getting ILR or British Citizenship in the near future?

Its useful to know what I need to do If I have to get ILR in future. I have completed 3 years 11 months in skilled worker visa. I am not sure if we can return to UK in near future. if we return, It will be useful to understand the rules.
Thank you in advance.

With what you outline above, you will have to start the process afresh by securing visa on a route that will culminate in ILR.
