Settle Persons Definition (Extension Only)

Post by Mrchaany » Wed May 28, 2014 12:19 pm

Hi
I am now searching the Settle person status in the uk, because we need to Two full time or 4 Part time employees for extension. Although, it is very common that, settle persons are those who are british Nations, ILR All categories, and European Nationals, but in need please could you guys search the Spouse visa holders and asylum visa holder are the settle persons or not. I checked in the UKCISA website that those who have limited leave are not settle persons, such as, All Tier 1,2,5, Work permit holders, Business visa, investors are not settle persons.

Thanks

Settled

'Settled' means being both ordinarily resident in the UK and without any immigration restriction on the length of your stay in the UK. The regulations refer to immigration law for the definition of 'settled'.

For the purposes of the fees and student support regulations, you are settled if you have: the Right of Abode (including those people who have this by virtue of a Certificate of Entitlement to the Right of Abode); or Indefinite Leave to Enter/Remain (ILE/R), in the UK; or, for Scotland's regulations, the right of permanent residence in the UK. If your passport describes you as a 'British citizen', then you also have the Right of Abode and are, therefore, settled.

Some EEA and Swiss nationals, and their family members, will have acquired the right of permanent residence in the UK, under EC law. These people are settled in UK immigration law but will not generally qualify under categories which require settled status, except under Scotland's regulations. For England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, such settled people may qualify under an alternative category, if they meet all the appropriate criteria.

You do not have settled status if:

you have a time limit on the length of your stay in the UK, as shown by your current immigration permission, ie you have a 'limited leave'
you are exempt from immigration control, eg you are living in the UK as a diplomat or a member of their household/family

you have a type of British passport that does not give you British citizenship, eg British National (Overseas).

Just confirming. Are you sure Eu Nationals are settled workers? So their employment will count towards Investment as we will pay them a salary and creating jobs?

Yes as one of our mate mentioned above that EU Nationals are settle persons and can easily show the salaries we paid from our businesses to them as investment.
second if any one taking states funds i.e. social benefits this is kind of crime belong to the them we are employer and our responsibility is to check the working right in the uk and their status. How can we know they not taking social benefits we will give job with and will pay with NI and this is the HRMC and council responsibility to look after them. be safe and progressive

As a responsible employer, we need to get all of the relevant documents, we also can confirm that at the time of interview and job offer (job offer forms can have a tick box, where they declare this). Then we should be fine. After all these as well; If employees breach the system/rules, that's their part.
