	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/02/2019 answer text <p><br>As my Rt Hon Friend the Prime Minister told the House of Commons on 21 January (col. 28) “that we have listened to concerns raised in constituencies, by Members in the House and by user groups, and when we roll out the scheme fully in March, the Government will not charge an application fee to anyone applying under the EU Settlement Scheme. Anyone who has applied during the private or public beta test phases, or who does so, will have their fee reimbursed. Details of the refunds process will be published shortly.”</p><p>It was a matter for individual organisations or employers to decide whether they wished to pay on an applicant’s behalf, give them the funds to pay, or reimburse the fee.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 20/02/2019 13:17:10 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

The​ ​UK​ ​will​ set ​the​ ​evidence requirements​ ​to​ ​suit​ ​the demands​ ​of​ ​this​ ​unique​ ​situation. ​For​ ​example, we will not ask applicants to account for every trip that they have taken out of the UK, nor will we require evidence of comprehensive sickness insurance.</p><p>For those who already hold a valid EEA permanent residence document, there will be a simple process to exchange this for a settled status document, subject to ID verification and submission of a photograph, a security check and confirmation of ongoing residence. The previous residence assessment will not be re-done.</p><p>The new system will be streamlined, user-friendly and will draw on existing Government data to minimise the burden on applicants to provide documentary evidence. Further, more detailed evidential requirements are being developed and will be published in due course.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 08/03/2018 12:40:26 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
