    Applying for permanent residency

    Hello! I have lived in Hong Kong for 7 years and I am interested in getting permanent residency here. How do I go about it? Are there any requirements? Do I need to learn Chinese for this? My husband is a HK national but we always speak English so I don't know Chinese well at all.

    Also, 4 years ago I overstayed my dependant viza by 1 months before realizing that I have to renew it. I did not leave HK during this time. Will this affect my chances of getting PR?
