New blog post examining the progress of EU Settled Status Scheme in the UK to date.
Today the Home Office will publish a report, produced by Chief Inspector of Borders and Immigration David Bolt, on the EU settlement scheme (EUSS) on how the settlement scheme for citizens living in the UK is working. At first sight, the answer is well. As the Home Secretary, Priti Patel, has said, there have been more than three million applications by EU nationals living in the UK to EUSS.
This is a huge number but it masks the other important (and completely unknown) number – those who haven’t applied. And as the deadline in which to apply approaches, this group becomes more and more important.
Even for the group who should find the EUSS application ‘easy’ (those who have the correct equipment (a smart phone), relevant documentation, and English language skills) it hasn’t always been straightforward. In this blog we ask- EU Settled Status- what's occuring?
