EU Settlement Scheme Advice and Guidance

As part of an additional 2 year funding package provided by the Home Office, Migrant Help will work to assist in reaching and supporting vulnerable or at-risk EU citizens and their families to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme. This programme will allow us to support vulnerable and at-risk citizens to make their applications over the next two years, with coverage across England.

Migrant Help continues to provide advice and support with the applications to the EU Settlement Scheme.

The deadline for most people to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme was 30 June 2021.

If you or your family are from the EU, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein, you can still apply if you or a family member were living in the UK by 31 December 2020. You must also either:

• meet one of the criteria for a later deadline to apply
• have ‘reasonable grounds’ for not applying by 30 June 2021

You can also apply if you already have pre-settled status and you’re applying for settled status.

Do I qualify for support?

Our service is available to Gypsy/traveller and Roma communities and vulnerable people, including those who are:

• homeless
• elderly
• suffering with disabilities/serious health conditions
• victims of domestic abuse
• victims of modern slavery and human trafficking
• adults who have left care

How can I receive support?

Migrant Help offers this service in Sussex, Surrey, Kent, Birmingham (West Midlands), Stoke-on-Trent, Leicester, Coventry, Liverpool and Lancashire.
