If you are an EU, EEA, or Swiss citizen who has not yet lived in the UK for five years, Pre-Settled Status is your first essential step toward securing your future here. Our experts simplify the application process by ensuring it meets every Home Office requirement, providing clear and confident guidance for your journey.
Pre-Settled Status is a temporary immigration status granted under the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) to EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens who have lived in the UK for less than five years. It provides the legal right to live, work, study, and access the NHS in the UK for a period of five years. This status acts as the first stage on the path to permanent residence. It allows you to remain in the UK and build up the five years of continuous residence required to apply for Settled Status (indefinite leave to remain). It is a critical step for anyone who started living in the UK by 31 December 2020 but does not yet qualify for permanent rights.
