Clarification on pending EUSS applications, travel and study

Article summary

The Home Office has provided clarification on certain matters for EEA citizens and family members who have made an application to the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) by 30 June 2021 or after that date.  By way of a letter to stakeholders, circulated by the UK Council for International Student Affairs (UKCISA), the Home Office clarifies whether such applicants have a right to study in the UK. It also sets out the position on travelling outside/into the UK while their application is pending. The letter does not cover the position of 'joining family members' with a pending EUSS application.
