Extenuating Circumstances and Late Settlement Applications

In some cases, individuals may have missed the deadline to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme due to extenuating circumstances. These may include circumstances such as serious illness, bereavement, or technical difficulties with the application process.

If you believe that you have missed the deadline due to extenuating circumstances, you can apply for a discretionary grant of leave to remain. This grant would allow you to stay in the UK for a limited period of time and make a late application to the EU Settlement Scheme.

To apply for a discretionary grant of leave to remain, you’ll need to provide evidence of your extenuating circumstances, including any relevant documentation such as medical certificates or death certificates.

It is important to note that discretionary grants are only granted in exceptional circumstances and are not guaranteed. The Home Office will consider each case on its individual merits, and it may take longer to process an application for a discretionary grant.

If you have missed the deadline due to extenuating circumstances, it is recommended that you seek the advice of an immigration lawyer who can help guide you through the process and increase your chances of a successful outcome.

In conclusion, individuals who have missed the deadline for the EU Settlement Scheme due to extenuating circumstances may still have options available to them. If you believe that you have a valid case, consider applying for a discretionary grant of leave to remain and seek the help of an immigration lawyer if necessary.

NA Solicitors have been responsive and flexible... in their approach since the first day I contacted them. They were the only company I approached that replied straight away and agreed to help me remotely as during the period of our initial consultations I was abroad. Bodrul Amin is a professional and supportive solicitor and has in-depth knowledge of employment law. He guided me through all the documents I provided and suggested different possibilities. I recommend NA Solicitors Services.read more

It was very reassuring to have support and... guidance through my whole naturalisation application process. I had contacted many firms previously but to even have an initial Consultation proved to be far to expensive. After many bad experiences it was very refreshing to have the professionalism and personable touch provided by NA law. The company provided support consistently and reassurance. I would recommend them to everyone. I was successful in my applications thanks to the thoroughness and support provided by NA law.read more

I had approached NA Law, Najma Ali, for our... company's Tier 2 sponsorship application. She and her team were pretty professional, asking the right questions and answering the queries with due thought during the process. They supported us with all necessary documentation to file the application. There was a necessity to file the application a second time but they were not at fault. They helped us on it for no fee and we incurred no additional charges for the same which went through successfully. Overall, I would strongly recommend their services.read more

We are thrilled to have recently received our... Sponsorship License - all thanks to NA Law! Before working with NA Law, we had previously submitted an application, which was rejected. NA Law provided the guidance that we really needed, and held our hand throughout the entire process, resulting in a speedy successful application. They were extremely knowledgable, professional, thorough and clear. They certainly took the stress out of the process for us and we would highly recommend them to anybody looking for immigration-related help!read more

NA Law assisted with the extension of my wife's... British Residence Permit. This was a complex process, the outcome of which was in doubt. I contacted their principal, Najma Ali out of the blue from a Google search, and she gave us a good deal of help and valuable advice before I had even appointed her firm. Her quotation was more than reasonable compared with the previous solicitors we had used, and, although the amount of work turned out to be significantly more than originally anticipated, she stuck to her quote and achieved a successful result. Indeed, her presentation of the application was so comprehensive, that the Home Office granted the extension far more quickly than is the norm. Najma was patient, proficient, and professional. She contacted me on several occasions out of hours and at weekends in order to meet the deadline, and inspired confidence. She did everything that was promised. Even if, for reasons beyond her control, the application had not been successful, I would not hesitate to employ her again. In fact, I have since employed her on another matter, and envisage continuing to do so in the foreseeable future.read more

The first time we applied to employ a computer... scientist on a Tier 2 Visa we were rejected by the Home Office. It took eight weeks to get to that verdict. In hindsight, we really weren't clear on the amount & clarity of the documentation needed to get approval. With NA Law, though, we achieved acceptance in 6 weeks from our first phone call, plus an A rating from the Home Office, simplifying the process even further for us. The NA Law team was great to work with. No nonsense, trustworthy, proactive, super-efficient & excellent value for money. I wholeheartedly recommend them to you if you have immigration (or other) challenges you need to apply legal expertise to.read more
