Grant British citizenship after 8 years of marriage to a British Citizen

Petition Details

There have been cases of British citizens being blackmailed, bullied and forced into marriage to obtain British Citizenship. Stronger laws should be placed to stop sham marriages.

Additional Information

British citizenship should only be granted to foreign nationals after 8 years of being together. A temporary British passport can be granted however, the temporary British passport could be terminated if separation takes place before 8 years. The foreign national will be expected to return home if a divorce takes place before the 8 years.
