Limitations of Permanent Residence

Although permanent residence has many advantages, there are a few limitations to consider. You cannot stay outside the UK for more than two years. After that time, your pre-settled status may be void. Also, you should note that your PR status can be revoked if you are found guilty of a crime or do not meet the financial requirements to remain a PR. Finally, it is important to remember that permanent residence UK does not guarantee British citizenship. To become a British citizen, you may need to make an additional application and pass the Life in the UK test.
