I hold an Indian passport. I work for a US company reporting to U.S office, but I am in U.K for last 3 years as a US expat. I am in the last stage of my American green card process. I have been in U.K for last 3 years on work permit.

I am wondering if I can somehow manage "dual green card" in both places.

Disadvantage of US green card is if I get married (to Indian) after green card, life is tough, because current waiting times are 5 to 6 years.

If a U.K permanent resident marries someone from India, is there a similar waiting time ?

If a U.K Citizen marries someone from India, is there a similar waiting time ?

Thanks.
 
GC in UK?

My brother will start working in UK soon. He is going there from India. Is it possible to a permanent residence (like US Green Card) in UK?
What is the criteria and/or procedure to get Perm status in UK? Please share your experiences, knowledge, and other resources that give details on UK perm res.Thanks
 
UK laws seem straightforward. You stay here 4 continuous years on a work permit and you can get a P.R (permanent residency). One more year and you get a British passport. Period. U.K also has the "highly skilled migrant progam" a.k.a HSMP which gives you authorization to stay without necessarily having a job per se. So its kinda like a green card. Check out http://www.valuevisas.com and he mentions all these.

Even Canada, Australia also seem to have straightforward laws. Basically these countries allow good, decent, hardworking people to settle down and be productive.

It is only U.S.A that seems to have all kinds of draconian laws ... But then again, maybe the demand for immigration to U.S is probably so high ...
