EU citizens have to apply for settled status.

Doncaster Council is encouraging people to ensure they are signed up before the June cut off point.

A spokesman said: “Are you an EU citizen living in Doncaster and are you aware of the Government’s EU Settlement Scheme?

“There’s still time for EEA and Swiss citizens and family members who were resident in the UK before 31 December 2020, to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme to continue to live and work in the UK.”

The deadline is 30 June 2021.

Citizens also have to register their children if applicable as they will not automatically be included in the application even if you’ve registered yourself.

For more information, please visit Apply to the EU Settlement Scheme (settled and pre-settled status) website which is available HERE and where applications can be made.
