Can Irish status come to live in the UK?

Can immigrants to Ireland go to the UK to settle down?

In fact, applicants who have migrated to Ireland and have been granted only permanent residence status – a stamp4 visa – instead of Irish citizenship will still need to apply for a corresponding UK visa to go to the UK. But then again, if you become an Irish citizen and become an Irish citizen, you can live in the UK as an Irish citizen. This is the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands as a common tourism area, with a CTA agreement. Citizens of Ireland, which is a common territory, automatically have the right to be legally settled in the UK.

What are the advantages of CTA?

1) Irish citizens do not have to apply for new EU status before the deadline, as other EU citizens do;

2) Citizens of the United Kingdom and Ireland are free to enter and reside in each other's countries without prior application for any visas or status, and in addition to this, they can work, study, enjoy medical and social benefits, and enjoy the right to vote in each other's countries;

3) Irish citizens residing in the UK are automatically deemed to have the right to remain in the UK from the moment they reside in the UK. It is worth mentioning that once an Irish citizen has lived in the UK for a continuous period of 5 years, he or she can further apply for British citizenship. This is far less time than applying for British citizenship by investment in the UK!
