In UK since 10 Years - Illegaly

[jinder]

Hi,

I landed in UK 10 years back through illegal means and has been staying here since.

- I have not claimed any benifits ,
- Did hot jobs for first 4 years
- Since last 6 years , self employed and paying tax,I am a builder,

I do understand I need to have a solicitor but thaught should first try here for advice.

Please can someone guide me on below
- Can I apply for citizenship?
- If yes then under what category my case comes ?
- What aspects I should prepare to make my case comperhensive ?


Please help!

Thanks,
Jinder

10 years illegal residence doesn't enable you to apply for British Citizenship.
Even if it did, you would need ILR first....and unfortunately you don't qualify for that either.
