If you are thinking about leaving your partner (or have already left them) because of domestic violence or abuse, and you are worried about your immigration status in the UK, you should seek legal advice from a solicitor or an OISC adviser and collect as much evidence as possible.

Кандидатстване по Схемата за уседналост на граждани на ЕС (EUSS) след крайния срок 30 юни
Тези, които отговарят на условията за кандидатстване по Схемата на ЕС за уседналост, все още могат да кандидатстват за постоянен статут на уседналост или временен статут на уседналост дори след крайния срок 30 юни 2021 г. Тези, които са закъснели да кандидатстват обаче, са по преценка. Това означава, че кандидатите трябва да обяснят и докажат защо не са успели да кандидатстват преди крайния срок. В резултат на това, служителят на Министерство на вътрешните работи (Home Office) ще прецени дали кандидата попада в една от категориите за основателни причини за подаване на късно заявление и ще реши дали да приеме това заявление или не.

Proving your right to work in the UK
From 1st July 2021 UK employers face changes in right to work checks for EEA nationals. Until 30th June 2021, EEA nationals could prove their right to work by presenting a valid ID document but now, new employees must provide proof that they have been granted (or at least applied for) status under the EU Settlement Scheme. Without a valid confirmation of the right to work, employers cannot sign new staff. If they do, they can face a penalty up to £20,000 for employing undocumented workers.
