Will my ILR be taken away if I divorce?

Post by Bobby40 » Fri Sep 16, 2011 4:22 pm

Hi,
I have been here in UK for 2 years and obtained a ILR in March 2011. This was through my husband who has been working here for longer. We originally had dependent visas.

We are both Chinese. My child also came here in March and has an ILR also.

I have recently split with my husband and we intend to divorce but I would like to ask two questions;

Is it possible to divorce in the UK if we were married in China?

If we divorce, will my childs and my ILR be revoked?

Many thanks for any information you can give.

Yes you can divorce in the UK; no, your ILR will not be affected by this.
