I am opening this topic thinking it might be helpful for the people living in UK for a period of less than 5 years so they qualify for pre-settled status. Please share as well your processing times.
I applied in the test phase, as an EU citizen with biometric passport and I have been living and working in UK for 2 months now. This was my timeline:
- Application submitted and online payment: 24/01/2019
- COA received: 24/01/2019
- Pre-settled status granted: 30/01/2019
I have to mention that because I haven't received yet my NINo, I had to submit a document from UK dated anytime in the last 6 months as a proof of residence. I submitted my plane ticket and letter from employer, but it is a very wide list of documents that you can submit.
My husband is an Indian citizen and he came here on EEA family permit, so we will wait for the settlement scheme to fully open by the end of March, to be able to apply for him as well. By the way, anyone knows if he will have to submit his biometric data at a center before or after applying for the pre-settled status?
Thanks.
