<p><a href="../../gu/legalhelp/leaflet21_1.html">1. Introduction</a></p>
<p><a href="/">2. Do I need permission to come to the UK?</a></p>
<p><strong>3. How is entry to the UK controlled?</strong></p>
<p>There are four situations in which you may need to show that you are allowed to come to or stay in the UK. They are:</p>
<ul>
<li>at a British embassy or other consular post overseas, when you apply for a visa (or other kind of entry clearance);</li>
<li>at a British airport or seaport when you arrive in the UK, or when you are getting on a Channel Tunnel train;</li>
<li>at the Home Office after you have arrived in the UK, when you apply to extend your permission to stay, or to change the reason for your stay; and</li>
<li>if you are questioned by immigration officers or the police in the UK to check that you do have permission to be here.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can also be asked about your immigration status when you apply for certain things in the UK, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>social security benefits;</li>
<li>a bank account;</li>
<li>hospital treatment;</li>
<li>housing from your local authority;</li>
<li>a school or college place for yourself or one of your children;</li>
<li>a marriage licence; or</li>
<li>a job.</li>
</ul>
<p>For these things, you may have to show papers such as your passport or a Home Office letter to prove that you have permission to be here. These are not immigration controls. But getting the service (for example, benefits or a job) may depend on your immigration status, and the organisation invloved (for example, a Jobcentre or employer) may pass information about you to the immigration authorities.</p>
<p><a href="/">4. What sort of permission do I need to come to the UK?</a></p>
<p><a href="/">5. What if I want to work in the UK?</a></p>
<p><a href="/">6. What restrictions are there after I´ve arrived in the UK?</a></p>
<p><a href="../../gu/legalhelp/leaflet21_7.html">7. What if I want to settle in the UK?</a></p>
<p><a href="/">8. What if my application is refused?</a></p>
<p><a href="/">9. What if I stay longer than I am allowed to?</a></p>
<p><a href="/">10. Who has a right to British nationality?</a></p>
<p><a href="../../gu/legalhelp/leaflet21_11.html">11. How can I become a British citizen?</a></p>
<p><a href="/">12. Where can I get help with my immigration application?</a></p>
<p><a href="/">13. Terms used in immigration and nationality matters</a></p>
<p><a href="/">14. Further help</a></p>
