Client Success Story: Settled Status Granted Under EU Settlement Scheme

14.04.2025
Co-author: Mykola Koval
Our client, a dual citizen of the Czech Republic and Ukraine, first arrived in the UK in September 2015 and was granted pre-settled status in February 2020.
Due to personal circumstances, serious health complications, and extended COVID-19-related travel restrictions, the client spent significant time outside the UK. This made her path to settled status challenging, with the Home Office questioning her eligibility.
Despite these complexities, our experienced and dedicated legal team worked tirelessly on her case. We carefully reviewed her situation, gathered extensive evidence (including medical records), and responded to four separate Home Office evidence requests between November 2024 and April 2025.
Thanks to our professional expertise, strategic approach, and unwavering commitment, we were able to prove our client’s continuous residence.
Timeline:
- 22/11/2024 – Application submitted
- Nov 2024 – Apr 2025 – Home Office requested further evidence 4 times
- 07/04/2025 – Settled status granted (Indefinite Leave to Remain) under paragraph EU2 of Appendix EU to the Immigration Rules.
This successful outcome was only possible due to the skill, persistence, and high-quality representation provided by our legal team.
