Question to the Home Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of (1) the total number of people who are currently eligible for the five-year route to settlement introduced in 2022 as Appendix Private Life to the Immigration Rules, and (2) the number of those people who would meet the threshold to be granted a fee waiver for a limited leave to remain applications.

Eligibility for the Private Life routes is set out in the Immigration Rules. Each application is considered on its merits and on a case by-case basis taking into account the individual circumstances.

Any applications for a fee waiver are considered against published criteria on a case by-case basis.
