I want to join the british army.
however there may be a problem.
I was born in the uk and lived there until i was 14, then i moved out of the country because my dad got a job over here. Now ive been living here for 3 years now and ive heard that if i go back to the uk to join the british army i may have to live there for 5 years before i can join.
Does anyone know if this is true. Ive been on the armyjobs website and it does say that if you are from a commonwealth country u may need a period of residency, but im not from the commonwealth.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks
