Long-term squatter here, applying for citizenship is expensive (almost 2 grand) and it’s a bloody awful process. It involves taking a test that I’m sure the vast majority of actual citizens would fail. I’d rather put the money towards a house deposit.
I get that, but consider getting a house deposit requires paperwork and financial testing. Skipping or ignoring that paperwork may not serve getting a house deposit.
But it does seem like the person in the article did their paperwork and still ended up being rejected.
Then I’d argue you’re refusing to integrate and you shouldn’t be there. You’re talking about a house, which means even longer term roots. If you’re going to take advantage of their system, you should become willing to integrate.
