Give UK citizens' family equal immigration rights to that of EU citizens' family

Petition Details

EU citizens' family can settle after 5 years' continuous residence (no other requirement); the application is free.
UK citizens' family have to meet additional requirements of visa type and financial means; the application is £2,389. They should be allowed to settle under the same conditions above.

Additional Information

Under the EU Settlement Scheme, EU citizens' family can settle after 5 years' continuous residence (no other requirement), and the application is free. In contrast, UK citizens' family can only settle after 5 years' continuous residence with a family visa, providing they meet certain financial thresholds (at least £18,600 a year), and the application costs £2,389.
UK citizens' family should be treated equally, and allowed to settle after 5 years' continuous residence with no other requirement.
