However, to stay longer than three months, EU citizens newly arrived in this transitional period will need to apply for European Temporary Leave to Remain, which, subject to identity and criminality checks, will mean that they can remain here, including to work or study, for a further 36 months.</p><p>In either scenario, there will be no minimum salary threshold for those coming here to work.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 13/02/2019 16:44:54 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
