6 months pre settled status?
HI I have always been under the impression that pre settled status was always granted for 5 years but one of our support workers has told me that she has someone that was only granted 6 months. I havent seen any paperwork or details so it may be a misunderstanding of the issue but I would just like to clarify my own knowledge. thank you
That is probably a joining family member permit: one of the options under the settled status scheme is to get a six month family permit and then apply for settled status once you arrive, as opposed to applying for settled status in advance.
thank you for your help
