The total number of applications for the UK's EU settled status scheme received by the end of 2019 was more than 2.75 million, according to Home Office statistics published on Thursday.

Of these, 58% of applicants have already been given settled status, which gives them indefinite leave to remain in the UK. But 41% have received the more precarious 'pre-settled' status, which only grants five years residency, after which they will have to apply again.

On Wednesday, MEPs expressed 'grave concern' about the scheme and called for the UK government to provide EU nationals with "a physical document as proof of their right to reside in the UK after the end of the transition period". ... MEPs also warned that the lack of a physical document as proof of residency increased the risk of discrimination against EU27 nationals by prospective employers or landlords "who may want to avoid the extra administrative burden of online verification or erroneously fear they might place themselves in an unlawful situation".
