🗞 New blog on the 2 year extension of pre settled status, featuring data from our @eumigrantworker research partner @GyrosOrg; an organisation working on the frontline to respond in real time & communicate changes to their clients following updates to the scheme. @CSBarnard24 👇
📣 "This is important because there are significant differences between the rights & entitlements of those with pre-settled & settled status."
🚨 NEW: @CSBarnard24 & @fiona_costello unpack the issues with an automatic extension of EU pre-settled status.
