Proposed changes could new residents waiting longer for indefinite leave to remain
The Isle of Man Government has not had specific discussions with the UK Home Office about a separate pathway for migrants in the Isle of Man.
Proposed changes in the UK could see new residents having to wait 10 years instead of five before being able to apply for indefinite leave to remain.
In this week's sitting of the House of Keys, Treasury Minister Chris Thomas was asked whether the Island would be looking to establish its own arrangement.
Mr Thomas confirmed the Island's policy is to align with the UK, but that the changes are yet to be implemented across:
500% increase in immigration arrests on the Isle of Man
More taxpayers' cash could be spent on 'cleaner heating'
RAF veteran says assisting blind climber will be 'massive honour'
Financial leaders from small countries visiting Island
New liquor licence proposed to support private events sector
