EU Settlement Scheme | Eligibility & Application Guide

The EU Settled Status Scheme is the UK’s new immigration status under the Immigration Rules for EU citizens and their family members following Brexit.

Under the EU Settled Status Scheme, pre-settled EU residents have up to the time when their pre-settled status is no longer valid to submit an application for settled status.

If you are able to demonstrate that you have “settled status,” then you will be permitted to live in the United Kingdom forever. An immigrant may submit a petition for citizenship after holding their status in the country for a period of 12 months.

Hi! Can I get some headcanons for Denmark and Sweden having feeling for the same darling?

For the short version: shit is gonna hit the fan. For the long version.

Yandere Sweden vs Denmark

This would be a scenario that would get the blood of both men boiling. The present day status of being EU countries would encourage them to remain cordial on the surface, that it wouldn’t solve the pre-existing problems, only freeze said dilemmas or make them resort to more covert methods. When they would both find out that they’re eyeing the same person, then matter could very well spiral out of control. They would be both be running high on emotions and their mutual unwillingness to share along with the emotional baggage both carry would mix together to be the most explosive cocktail.

There was a loud knock on the door, interrupting the awkward silence that had settled between Matthias and you. You were thankful for it, because you had already started to feel nervous under the intense stare of your surprisingly silent guest.

A key twisted in the hole and Matthias hissed: “Who did you give your spare key to?”

He was angry, (of course he was angry – you had just rejected his proposition to move into his house; it was simply too early) and he got even angrier when he saw who stepped in and neatly took off his shoes.

Berwald froze when he glimpsed your guest and you could feel your anxiety rise, making your heart hammer in your ears and making you feel oddly floaty. While the taller man was a calming presence with his stoic attitude, he was the last person you needed here. Matthias was hot-tempered and without somebody to respond with adequate empathy, his emotions would flare.

“What are you doing here?”, Berwald all but snarled. It shocked you, because it was the most emotion you had ever witness from the man. Your first guest narrowed his eyes at him, mirroring his anger.

Your “you know each other?” was promptly ignored, as Matthias stalked forward, seizing up the man he had deemed to be his opponent.

“Oh, you know – visiting. That you really have a concept of it, seeing how you barged in here unannounced. You own the place or something?”

“And what if I did? I bet your face is yearning to meet the pavement outside. Don’t worry – I’ll help you.”

These two would be antagonistic towards each other, right off the bat, especially considering that the circumstances where they would learn of their shared interest would leave little room for misinterpretation. It would lead to vicious plotting as they immediately contemplate ways to get rid of the competition.

Denmark balefully glared at the closed kitchen door. From where he was sitting at the table, he could hear your soft voice as well as the hideous low rumble of that ogre. He wished he could be in their instead of Sweden, to caution you against allowing that emotionally constipated mess of a man continue to see you.

Without the shadow of a doubt, Berwald was doing exactly what he intended to do, only that he warning you to stay away from him, good mood personified. That was an underhand thing that he couldn’t allow.

Seriously, they would probably devise schemes that would end with one in hospital and the other possibly in prison. Trying to reason with them wouldn’t work, blinded by their emotions as they would be. They both know of the others stubbornness and was aware of the full extent of the other’s feelings, they would know that they could never fully enjoy you as long as the other would be free and yearning for your touch.

There would be people hurt and eventually lives ruined, if their “disagreement” would go on for long enough. They would use this fact against one another, using it to point out how the other is so reckless and violent and inconsiderate. Could they possibly be a good husband to you if they are already like this before the deal is sealed? This would probably be a point that Sweden would bring, seeing as out of the two, he would be more in control of his emotions.

Sweden would try to attract you to him by presenting himself as the more put together option, as the man that would listen to all your worries and treat you like a princess in opposition to the stormy Denmark.

Denmark would try to present himself as the more open-minded option, as the guy that can understand the emotions of himself and others, of the fun guy that would ensure your happiness.

Both would do their best to depict the other as a monster that you would do your best to avoid, and they wouldn’t shy from hitting below the belt line here. Thus, sharing would absolutely be out of the question. They would dig up blackmail on the other, throw blocks in the road, drag up unresolved and resolved issues to fight over them all over again.

It would escalate into kidnapping which would then turn into a tug of war as you would be stolen and re-stolen and re-re-stolen. If anything, there would be a high chance that you would die in one of their scuffles. Or just end up hating both of them. Time to move to New Zealand!

The only way everybody would stay alive would be if they would decide to duel for your hand in marriage. A fair share of pride would force them to respect the outcome, especially if a ref would be there to rule out any foul play. And, by the way, your feelings wouldn’t be considered in all of this aside from how they can be used to manipulate you.

"Under the current EU settlement scheme, EU citizens who had been in the country for less than five years before Brexit and who had “pre-settled status” are obliged to reapply to upgrade their status to “settled status” after being in the country for five years.

If they did not, they would automatically lose their rights to reside, work, rent property or access services including the NHS, under Home Office rules.

But in a ruling handed out on Wednesday in the high court, Justice Lane described the rule as “wrong in law and that the EU settlement scheme is accordingly unlawful” as it “purports to abrogate the right of permanent residence”."

"The Home Office minister Lord Murray said ..."

“We are disappointed by this judgment, which we intend to appeal.”

"The campaign group the3million said: “We strongly welcome this judgment, which stands to protect vulnerable citizens who are granted pre-settled status under the EU settlement scheme, and who could lose their right to work, rent, travel, benefits, healthcare and more – just for not making a further application in the years ahead.

“We are pleased that the judge agrees with the3million that the point of the EU settlement scheme is to create a clear distinction between those who are beneficiaries of the withdrawal agreement and those who are not. Once a beneficiary, people cannot lose their rights just by forgetting to make a second UK immigration application – the withdrawal agreement does not allow it.”

The group, which supported the case, said such a rule would impact some of the most vulnerable in society including children and elderly in care, victims of domestic abuse who did not have paperwork and those who for one reason or another led chaotic lives."

UK Residency: Your Guide to Applying for Permanent Residence (PR)

Obtaining permanent residence (PR) in the UK allows you to live, work, and study without needing to reapply for a visa. Known formally as Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), this status offers a stable path for those who have made the UK their home. Generally, UK PR requires a continuous stay of at least five years, though some visa types may reduce this to three years.

Paths to Permanent Residence in the UK

Permanent residence in the UK can be achieved through various visa categories, each with unique requirements. Here are some of the most common pathways:

Family Visa: 5 years

Work Visa: 5 years

Business Visa: 3 to 5 years

Long Residence to ILR: 10 years

Note: This list covers the primary paths to UK PR, but other options are available for both EU and non-EU nationals.

PR for Family Members of UK Residents or Citizens

If you're a family member of a settled individual in the UK, such as a spouse, child, or dependent relative, you may qualify for PR. Here are common visa types for family members that lead to PR:

Spouse Visa: PR after 2 or 5 years

Child Visa: PR as soon as the parent gains PR

Adult Dependent Visa: PR once your UK-based caregiver is settled

To apply for PR as a family member, you must:

Have resided in the UK for the required period (usually 2-5 years, depending on the visa type).

Fulfill relationship requirements (e.g., spouses should still be living with their partners).

Meet financial criteria, which vary depending on the visa route (e.g., a minimum combined income for the 5-year spouse route).

Pass the Life in the UK test.

Satisfy English language requirements.

PR via Work Visas

For many non-EU nationals, a work visa offers a straightforward route to PR. Typically, PR is granted after five years on a qualifying work visa. The Skilled Worker visa is a popular choice, but there are others, such as:

Scale-up Visa

Health and Care Worker Visa

Global Talent Visa

However, not all work visas qualify for PR. For example, the Senior or Specialist Worker visa under the Global Business Mobility route, or the High Potential Individual (HPI) visa, do not directly lead to PR. However, holders of such visas can often switch to other visa types that do.

To secure PR on a work visa, you must:

Complete the required years in the UK on a work visa (usually five).

Maintain sponsorship from a UK employer.

Continue working in a qualifying job.

Meet income thresholds for your position.

Pass the Life in the UK test.

Demonstrate proficiency in English.

PR Through a Business Visa

For those with innovative business ideas, a business visa can be a great option. The Innovator Founder Visa provides a direct path to PR in just three years. Other business visas, like the Start-up Visa, do not provide a direct route to PR, though it is possible to switch to a qualifying visa.

To qualify for PR on an Innovator Visa, you must:

Hold the visa continuously for three years.

Obtain a new endorsement for your business.

Pass the Life in the UK test.

Meet English language requirements.

PR for EU Nationals

Post-Brexit, EU nationals must apply for PR through the EU Settlement Scheme if they began living in the UK before January 31, 2021. Those who have lived in the UK for less than five years can obtain pre-settled status. After five years, settled status (PR) is granted. EU nationals arriving after this date must apply through other visa routes.

Application Process for UK PR

Applying for UK PR involves several steps:

Complete and submit the online application form, selecting the form specific to your visa type. Eligible family members can be included.

Pay the application fee.

Book an appointment at a UKVCAS office for biometric data (photo and fingerprints).

Submit requested documents, such as your Life in the UK test certificate.

The decision usually takes up to six months. Priority services are available for faster decisions (5 days for £500 or 1 day for £1000).

Additional Routes to UK PR

Other options to gain PR in the UK include:

Discretionary leave to remain

ILR following domestic violence

The 7-year child route

The 10-year long residence route

The private life route

Serving in the armed forces

Permanent residence offers long-term security and access to opportunities in the UK. With the right guidance and planning, obtaining UK PR is an achievable goal.

Hungarian Government Confirms Decision to Pull Out of Sanctions-hit IIB

The Hungarian government has confirmed media reports that it will withdraw from the International Investment Bank (IIB) after US sanctions were imposed on the Budapest-based, Russia-controlled development bank on April 12.

The decision to withdraw by the bank's second-largest shareholder implies that Hungary will refuse to take part in any attempt to rescue the IIB, which had been rumoured to be in crisis even before the imposition of sanctions. Western financial institutions such as the Belgium-based Euroclear network, which settles securities transactions, have reportedly refused to deal with it. The IIB's bonds have been downgraded to junk status by ratings agencies.

The withdrawal of Hungary ends Moscow's dream of building a European-focussed international financial institution such as the EBRD or EIB, leaving it as the last significant shareholder.

The decision also marks a humiliating defeat for Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's project to attract the IIB to Budapest in 2019 and thereby forge closer financial ties with Moscow and strengthen Hungary's role as an international financial centre. Hacked documents sent to the investigative CEE media network VSquare showed how Budapest had desperately tried to lobby inside the EU for the bank not to be frozen out of European financial networks, and had schemed to hide the bank's Russian dominance by keeping Moscow's stake under 50%.

Hungarian Economic Development Minister Marton Nagy said the government had come to the conclusion that participation in the bank no longer made sense, as US sanctions have rendered the bank's operations meaningless. The government hence decided to withdraw its representative from the board, although IIB has played an important financing role in Central and Eastern Europe, Nagy told state news agency MTI on Thursday afternoon, a few hours after the news first leaked by pro-government business website Vilaggazdasag. Hungary is the last EU member state to leave IIB. The Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Slovakia and Romania announced their decision to quit both the IIB and the International Bank for Economic Cooperation (IBEC) following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Poland already quit the IIB in 2000. The IIB has refused to repay the equity capital invested by the exiting countries.

As of Thursday afternoon, the Hungarian government had not officially reacted to the announcement made by US Ambassador to Hungary, David Pressman to sanction IIB, along with three executives resident in Hungary, Nikolay Kosov chairman, Georgy Potapov deputy chairman and Imre Laszloczki, deputy chairman in charge of strategy and policy. The 62-year-old banker, a former ambassador to Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, is the only Hungarian national on the list.

The US diplomat, some nine months in office, told the international press at the Budapest embassy that Washington had repeatedly raised concerns concerns about how Russia could use the bank to expand its influence in the region, but that these had been ignored.

“Unlike other Nato allies previously engaged with this Russian entity,” Pressman said, “Hungary has dismissed the concerns of the United States government regarding the risks [the IIB's] continued presence poses to the alliance.”

According to the statement released by the US Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), the IIB's presence in Budapest enables Russia to increase its intelligence presence in Europe, opens the door for the Kremlin’s malign influence activities in Central Europe and the Western Balkans, and could serve as a mechanism for corruption and illicit finance, including sanctions violations. The US has accused the bank of co-ordinating its policy with the Kremlin.

At the end of the press conference, Pressman struck a conciliatory tone, leaving the door open for talks with the government. "The United States is committed to a close and constructive relationship with Hungary, our valued Nato ally", he added.

While Orban has reluctantly approved sanctions against Russia and acknowledged Ukraine's right to territory integrity, he drew criticism from its allies for his pro-Kremlin narratives during the war and for strengthening economic ties with Moscow in the face of bloody conflict.

Budapest has done little to reduce its dependence on Russian energy imports, and just this week Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto signed new energy contracts earlier in Moscow that will cement Russian influence for decades to come.

Hungary's isolation among its regional allies, the Visegrad Four, has also deepened since the outbreak of the war and regional cooperation is now all but dead.

At the time the US ambassador was providing details of sanctions against Russian interests in Hungary, the country's foreign minister hosted his Belorussian counterpart in Budapest "to keep the channels of communication" open for peace. A day earlier in Warsaw, US Vice President Kamala Harris and Polish PM Mateusz Morawiecki discussed the “importance of a shared commitment to democratic values” and the two country's strategic partnership.

Hungary, together with Turkey, is also still blocking Sweden's application to join Nato, to the frustration of its allies

“We have concerns,” Pressman said, “about the continued eagerness of Hungarian leaders to expand and deepen ties with the Russian Federation.”

The IIB was originally established in 1970 as the Comecon bank serving the then Soviet bloc’s economic area and third-world countries and was revitalised in the early 2010s under Putin.

Hungary renewed its membership in IIB in October 2014 after a decade-long absence, and four years later IIB member states unanimously voted for the proposal to relocate the bank's HQ to Budapest from Moscow.

According to the blog of a leading Hungarian geopolitical analyst, this was proposed by Orban's former chief foreign adviser, Janos Balla, a former career diplomat, born in Moscow.

The government argued that moving IIB's seat to Budapest will strengthen Hungary's role as an international financial centre and it fitted into the government's Opening to the East policy, which aimed to bolster economic ties with Russia, China and other emerging markets outside the EU.

The United States expressed reservations over the relocation from the onset. Washington successfully blocked the lender to have its HQ established alongside the US Embassy in Hungary at the landmark Freedom Square, close to the Parliament building. It also successfully pressured Hungary to reduce the number of officials at the bank with diplomatic immunity.

In an interview on Wednesday, the Hungarian government’s delegate to the board, Imre Boros raised eyebrows when commenting on the latest sanctions on IIB, saying "the US was trying to strike at Russia while attacking one of Russia's allies, Hungary". This was the first time that a leading public figure close to the government called Russia Hungary’s ally.

The 75-year-old former minister in the first Orban cabinet also said that Hungary is the number one shareholder in the bank, a claim that is not backed up by official data from IIB.

The latest data shows that Russia is currently the largest owner in the bank, holding 45.44% of the shares, followed by Hungary with 25.27%, while Cuba holds 2.83%, Mongolia 1.8% and Vietnam 1.26%.

Don't Apply for EU Settlement Scheme Without Reading This First

The EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) was introduced in 2019 by the UK government as a way for European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA) and Swiss citizens to apply for settled or pre-settled status in the UK. This scheme is open for applications until June 2021, so if you are an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen living in the UK, it is important that you apply before the deadline. However, before you do, there are a few things you should know about the EU Settlement Scheme.

Firstly, it is important to understand the difference between settled status and pre-settled status. Settled status is granted to EU, EEA or Swiss citizens who have been living in the UK for at least five years. It allows them to stay in the UK indefinitely, access public funds and services, and apply for British citizenship. Pre-settled status is granted to those who have been living in the UK for less than five years. It allows them to stay in the UK for a further five years, after which they can apply for settled status. If you are unsure which status to apply for, the UK government has a helpful online tool to assist you.

Secondly, it is important to note that the application process for the EU Settlement Scheme is entirely digital. This means that you will need access to a smartphone or computer to complete your application. You will also need to provide evidence of your identity, residence in the UK and your relationship to any family members who are also applying. The UK government has provided a list of acceptable documents to use as evidence, including passports, national identity cards and utility bills.

Thirdly, if you have already been granted permanent residence in the UK, you may still need to apply for settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme. This is because permanent residence documents are not considered proof of settled status under UK law. If you are unsure whether you need to apply for settled status, the UK government has a helpful online tool to assist you.

Fourthly, it is important to apply for settled or pre-settled status before the June 2021 deadline. Failure to do so may result in losing your right to live and work in the UK. Additionally, if you are not able to provide evidence of your right to remain in the UK after the deadline, you may be at risk of being detained or deported.

Fifthly, if your application is refused, you have the right to appeal the decision.
