answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/05/2024 answer text <p>Under the existing student support regulations, Hong Kong British National Overseas (BNO) visa holders would not have access to student finance until they have acquired a settled status in the UK and meet the three-year ordinary residence requirement. As the BNO route only opened in January 2021, the earliest a person is likely to become settled (and have access student finance) is in January 2026. As such, all persons who have been granted leave under the BNO route, are not currently able to access student finance.</p><p>Home Office statistics show that 140,300 people have arrived in the UK on the scheme since it began. However, not all of these people will go on to study in higher education.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Thornbury and Yate answering member printed Luke Hall question first answered 01/05/2024 13:57:32 answering member 4450 label Biography information for Luke Hall
