Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the average length of time taken was for young migrants on limited leave to remain to achieve settled status in the most recent period for which figures are available.

The length of time required before settled status can be achieved by young migrants on limited leave to remain will vary according to the basis on which that leave was given, and is set out in the Immigration Rules. As these are fixed periods set out in the legislation, there are no average periods as such.
