Settled Status for EU citizens who contributed as key workers during Covid-19.

Petition Details

Extend Settled Status to all EU citizen with Pre-Settled Status who contributed to our national effort against Covid-19.
Many EU nationals decided to remain in the UK and have tirelessly worked in healthcare, the food industry, logistics, and beyond, in service of the public good.

Additional Information

We call upon the government to recognize their service.

France rewarded frontline immigrant workers with fast-track application procedures; https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-55423257

It is time we, too, show appreciation by offering EU citizens, who have not met the 5-year residency requirement for Settled Status, the opportunity to apply for Settled Status after:
-3 years of continuous residency in the UK.
-Being actively engaged in the national effort during Covid-19 as a key worker.
