Bishop urges European citizens who have made their homes in the UK to apply for Settled Status

Exactly a year before the government's deadline for EU, EEA and Swiss citizens living in the UK to apply for Settled Status, a bishop who has gone through the process is urging people not to delay in making their application. Bishop William Kenney, auxiliary Bishop of Birmingham and himself a Swedish national, says those who are eligible should apply well ahead of 30 June 2021. The government requires European citizens who have made their homes in the UK to make an application or risk losing their fundamental rights to live and work here. Everyone, including children, needs to go through the process.
