    Why did Adam have to take a citizenship test if he had permanent leave to stay?

      Permanent residency is different. A path to citizenship. Another 2 years and he would have to take a citizenship test I believe? Well that's how it is here in Australia.

      Permanent residency and citizenship are not the same thing. Also, you don't have to "change" nationality. Most countries, including the UK and Australia, allow dual citizenship.

      I wondered the same thing. I know a few EU nationals who got permanent residency just by asking for it, no test required. Would it have anything to do with him being a non-EU national?
