'Settlement status' refers to an individual's right to reside permanently in the UK after living here for a specific period. This status allows you to access public services and benefits without restrictions. Achieving this status involves submitting a Settlement settle application with clsid, which is essential for those wishing to live in the UK long-term.
To apply, you need to be an EU citizen or a non-EU family member of an EU citizen and you need to be living in the UK by 31 December 2020. If you have been living in the UK for more than five continuous years at the point when you apply then you will be eligible for settled status.
Switch from pre-settled status to settled status. If you have pre-settled status, you can usually switch to settled status after you've lived in the UK for 5 years in a row. It's free to apply. It's easier to prove your right to live in the UK permanently if you have settled status.
Settled status gives you proof that you have the right to live in the UK permanently. You can usually apply for British citizenship once you've had settled status for 12 months.
In order to qualify for Pre-Settled Status you will need to satisfy UK Visas & Immigration that: You are a relevant EEA citizen; or. You are a family member of a relevant EEA citizen; or. You are a family member who has retained the right of residence by virtue of a relationship with a relevant EEA citizen; or.
The status you get under the EU Settlement Scheme proves your rights in the UK only. Your documents will be returned to you automatically once the decision has been made - this usually takes between 6 to 8 weeks.
