    I hope that I would be able to keep my British Passport Virgin Islands until the day that I die. I may have leave the United States of America and live somewhere in London, England UK at some point in time in life.

    Here in the USA I have been homeless with no where to live and jobless and penniless for 23 years. I have been poor and needy and downtrodden for 23 years. I slept outside on the sidewalk of Orlando Florida with no where to live for 8 long years. 23 years have gone and I do not have a US Permanent Resident Card and I am still struggling and having extreme difficulty and hardship to complete my Bachelor Degree in Nursing.

      Only BVI Islanders who support the sovereignty of the UK should get British Passports. No concessions to those who consistently put down the UK!

    What is needed is a quicker turn-aeound time for work Visas. The process is way to long. Before they went on line you could of get a work Visa in a week now it is 1 month plus. that time frame is not Business friendly
