EU Referendum Result – UK Votes to Leave the EU
On 24 June 2016 the result of the European Union referendum has been confirmed, and the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union. The result would have very important implications towards EEA nationals and their dependants that have been living and working in the UK and any future migration of EEA nationals and their dependants to the United Kingdom.
Uncertain Future Immigration Rules
At this moment, it is not clear when and what kind of restrictions will be implemented towards EEA nationals and their dependants in terms of UK immigration, but it is definite that there will be some serious implications.
How EEA Nationals Can Protect Their Status
EEA nationals and their dependants can contact us on applying for permanent residence/British citizenship if they lived and worked in the UK for 6 years or obtaining family permits for dependants of EEA nationals to avoid any future changes in UK immigration rules that could impact their status in the UK.
