The gov.uk guidance says the deadline for applying to the EU Settlement Scheme was 30 June 2021 for most people. Those who need to apply get settled or pre-settled status, depending on how long they have been living in the UK.
Who may need to apply
The EU Settlement Scheme page says you may need to apply to keep living in the UK. It names three groups for whom the guidance sets out what to check:
- Not a citizen of the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland
- Holding indefinite leave to remain or permanent residence
- Applying for a child
Settled or pre-settled status
The gov.uk page says the status you get depends on how long you have been living in the UK. It also says this may affect when you choose to apply.
Deadline for most people
The Home Office deadline for applying for most people was 30 June 2021, according to the gov.uk page. That date has passed.
The full steps are on the gov.uk page for settled status (opens in a new tab).
