Ancestry Visa UK

Any experience with an Ancestry Visa? I read that if you can prove your grandparent was born in the UK you can apply for an ancestry visa which will allow you to live in the UK for up to 5 years. Not sure how difficult it is to get.

Monte's grandfather was born in Scotland.......just thinking about it makes me smile!

From a very quick search it looks like it's not for US citizens, only for citizens of Commonwealth countries.

Dang! I missed that. I was thinking you needed to have one of the requirements not all of them. I figured it was too good to be true!

Thanks for setting me straight :-(
