Product Information

If you have a family member in the UK with pre-settled or settled status, you might be able to apply to join them in the UK under the EU Settlement Scheme. There is some evidence that non-EU migration is more likely to be temporary than in the past. The cohort of non-EU citizens issued visas in 2014, for example, is less likely to have permission to stay in the UK at the end of the fifth year than those who were granted their visa in 2004, for whom 60% of visas had expired after that period of time (Home Office, 2020). If you were living in the UK on or before 1 January 1973, you might not need to apply to stay in the UK. You might have been given indefinite leave to remain without applying for it. There is no single definition of a ‘migrant’. This briefing examines data on people with non-UK nationality and non-UK country of birth depending on the dataset. When examining immigration inflows, nationality and country of birth lead to very similar results. However, when examining the population of people living in the UK, the number of non-UK nationals will generally be lower than the number of non-UK born because of naturalisations, particularly among non-EU citizens. For more discussion, see the Migration Observatory briefing, Who Counts as a Migrant.

EEA or Swiss citizens coming to the UK who are intending to remain in the UK for longer than six months should have a valid visa, and have paid the surcharge, and therefore won't be chargeable for relevant services (except assisted conception services) in the same way as third country national surcharge payers. Students starting a course after the end of the transition periodEU migrants have traditionally been much less likely to become UK citizens than those from non-EU countries. For more discussion of citizenship, see the Migration Observatory briefing, Citizenship and naturalisation for migrants in the UK. People who are exempt from immigration control do not need to apply for settled status, but they can do if they want to.

Copies of OS maps from the 1840s onwards can generally be found at county record offices and local studies libraries. The deadline for most people to apply for pre-settled or settled status through the EU Settlement Scheme was 30 June 2021. You might still be able to apply if you’re in one of these situations: That was how I learned that this had been her home. Once upon a time. The boss’s late father used to work for the old woman’s husband. During the riots, the boss’s family had sheltered the old woman’s family. “As long as we’re here, no one can touch you,” they had promised. Numerous houses all around had been burned to the ground, but the solid walls of this house were only slightly grazed. But the old woman’s father and grandfather did not return to their home. The boss’s family members had said the situation had gone beyond the pale, they could give them no guarantee now, they must flee. And they fled. Handed the house over for a song. But the old woman survived. She still came.

A person may be considered as having CSI if they have a comprehensive private health insurance policy.

Evidence gaps and limitations

Close family members of UK citizens returning from the EEA or Switzerland after 31 December 2020 will have until the 29 March 2022 to return to the UK and to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme ( EUSS), where that relationship existed on 31 January 2020 and continues to do so. Some studies have used the Labour Force Survey or Annual Population Survey to examine emigration patterns, by looking at how the size of a given cohort of migrants (e.g. those arriving in 2006) changes over time (e.g. how many are still living here in 2007, 2008, and so forth). For example, Migration Watch (2017) uses the LFS to estimate how many migrants arriving from 2008-2014 were still in the UK in 2010-2016. For non-EU citizens, the patterns are roughly as expected: the estimated size of a given year-of-arrival cohort decreases over time, presumably due to emigration. For EU citizens, however, the cohort sizes mostly do not decrease and in some cases actually increase over time. This is quite different from the picture provided by IPS data, which show EU national emigration of 75,000-140,000 per year since 2008. While one should not expect a perfect match between the two data sources due to differences in measurement and methodology, the difference between the two results—one of which suggests substantial EU emigration and one of which does not—is surprising and makes it difficult to make conclusive statements about what share of EU citizens emigrate. As this group is exempt from paying the surcharge, the charging regulations have been amended to provide a specific exemption to eligible family members of the people of Northern Ireland, to ensure they are not chargeable. To be exempt, an eligible family member must have been granted pre-settled or settled status under the EUSS as the family member of a relevant person of Northern Ireland or as a person who has retained a right of residence by virtue of a relationship with a relevant person of Northern Ireland (unless they fall into one of the other exemption categories) and be ordinarily resident in the UK. An eligible family member will not be required to have indefinite leave to remain (settled status) for the purpose of the ordinary residence test, however they must hold pre-settled status, if they do not. OVMs will therefore only need to consider the 'properly settled' criterion of the test. Further information of what it means to be 'properly settled' in the UK for the time being can be found in chapter 3 of the main guidance. The definition of an accredited provider is set out in the introduction of the Immigration Rules. ↩ Some visas allow a person entry to the UK to marry or become a person's civil partner, but they do not allow that person to live here. This will usually be marked as a visit visa and they must leave the UK by the end date of that visa. Such persons are therefore chargeable, unless an exemption applies (for example they are covered by a reciprocal healthcare agreement between the UK and their country of residence).
