Please note: earned settlement is confirmed government policy but is not yet in the Immigration Rules; no commencement date or transitional terms have been published. Applications are decided under the rules in force at the time, and this tool will be updated when the Rules are published.
Results are a guide only, not legal advice. Eligibility depends on the GOV.UK rules and an assessment by a UK solicitor.
