	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/03/2020 answer text <p>The latest published figures show that the total number of applications received up to 31 January 2020 was more than 3.1 million, with over 2.7 million granted status (58% granted settled status and 41% granted pre-settled status). <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/eu-settlement-scheme-statistics-january-2020" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/eu-settlement-scheme-statistics-january-2020</a></p><p>Figures reported in the statistical publications account for applications to the system, including individuals making applications on more than one occasion. For example, an individual who has been granted pre-settled status can make a new application at a later stage to apply for settled status. As these are separate applications with separate outcomes, they are counted as separate applications and outcomes in the statistics.</p><p>This is consistent with how applications are reported across wider Home Office statistics.</p><p>Our initial analysis of applications suggest that repeat applications currently represent less than two per cent of all applications. This is a small percentage of the over 3 million applications we have received. To continue to meet user needs, the Home Office is exploring options for identifying and reporting follow-on applications (i.e. those moving from pre-settled to settled status) as part of our regular statistical publications.</p> answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster question first answered 19/03/2020 16:16:47 answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster
