羅列諸多條件 英媒爲準王妃如何'移民'英國操心
How do you become a British royal? Well, you could be proposed to by a prince - and Meghan Markle already has that covered.
如何成爲一名英國王室成員？讓王子向你求婚即可--梅根·馬克爾已經做到了。When it comes to becoming a citizen, Kensington Palace says Markle will be treated like anyone else.
肯辛頓宮稱，在入籍英國的問題上，馬克爾不會得到特殊照顧。First, she will have to apply for a family visa to remain in the country.
首先，要想留在英國她必須申請家庭團聚簽證。
Since 2012, UK citizens have had to meet a minimum income threshold of 18,600 pounds a year, or have cash savings above 16,000 pounds, to bring a partner into the country.
2012年起，英國公民必須滿足最低年收入1.86萬英鎊或現金儲蓄超過1.6萬英鎊的門檻，纔可以將伴侶帶到英國居住。We don't know precisely how much Prince Harry earns, but he shouldn't have any trouble with that.
雖然我們不清楚哈里王子的具體收入，但這對他來說應該不是問題。
If someone comes to the country as the fiancée of a British citizen, they must marry within six months.
如果持英國公民未婚妻簽證進入英國，那麼雙方必須在6個月之內結婚。With their engagement last month and the wedding planned for May 2018, they should just tie the knot in time.
馬克爾和哈里已於上月宣佈訂婚，並計劃在明年5月完婚，結婚的時間剛剛好。After coming in on a family visa, individuals must wait five years before permanent residency is granted. Only then can they apply for citizenship.
個人獲得家庭團聚簽證5年後纔可以獲得永久居留權，到那時纔可以申請成爲英國公民。At this point, Markle will have to take a test with questions on life in the UK. It could include multiple-choice questions such as "Who is married to the Queen of England?" and "What is the relationship between the monarch and the government?"
屆時馬克爾將需要參加一項關於在英國生活的測試。測試中可能出現“英國女王的配偶是誰？”、“君主和政府的關係是什麼？”等多選題。
