EU Settlement Scheme Public Test Phase Now Open

EU citizens and their family members may now apply under the EU Settlement Scheme as part of a public test phase, running from 21 January 2019.

Register now for our Brexit Immigration webinar on EU Settlement and the White Paper at 12.30pm on Thursday 24 January for practical guidance on how to support your affected employees through the application process.

Applicants for this part of the test phase must be either:

• a resident EU citizen (but not a British citizen) with a valid EU passport
• the non-EU citizen family member of an EU citizen with a biometric residence card

Applicants will need to have access to an Android device with a near field communication function to use a Home Office app to confirm their identity as part of the process.
