Why would you apply for it in the first place? Only real benefit is to vote in elections, apart from that it's just wasted money.Originally posted by Eirikur View PostI'm so glad I turned down British Citizenship, so I could keep my EU citizenship
Have now got settled status in the UK so can work and live in 28 countries in stead of 2

I applied because it felt like the right thing to do so at that time. I started applying before the referendum was announced. It was approved just after the brexit referendum. As it was uncertain (and still is today) what is going to happen I decided not to accept it as the my country of origin doesn't allow for dual citizenship.Originally posted by PCTNN View PostWhy would you apply for it in the first place?
