EU Settlement Scheme appeal rights introduced
The Immigration (Citizens’ Rights Appeals) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 come into force on Brexit day — tomorrow, 31 January.
They create a right of appeal to the immigration tribunal for people refused pre-settled or settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme.
Note that this only applies to applications “on or after exit day”, which is 31 January 2020, but does allow people to appeal a grant of pre-settled status up to full settled status.
There are also appeal rights for various scenarios where settled status is being cancelled or revoked.
Appeals go to the First-tier Tribunal, unless certified as a national security issue for the Special Immigration Appeals Commission.
