Citizens of European Union countries who have applied for permanent residence status in the United Kingdom under the EUSS are threatened with deportation, despite previous assurances from the UK authorities that EU citizens who can prove that they have applied for such status until June 30.
In addition, such events are considered incompatible with the Brexit withdrawal agreement.
More than a month after the application deadline for the scheme, the accumulated applications have not been eliminated, while many people are at risk of being deported from the UK.
Currently, those who have applied correctly are being notified of the removal, despite promises from the UK authorities that all people applying for such a scheme will be protected.
In this regard, the charity Bail for Detained Immigrants (Bid) has previously addressed its concerns to the head of the immigration service, noting the refusal of the Ministry of Interior to recognize applications for status settlement in specific cases when it wants to deport European Union citizens.
A letter addressed to BID by the head of the UK Immigration Service in July stressed that if something is not done soon, Bid will file a complaint to the EU Commission, accusing the UK of violating the Exit Agreement.
Thousands could be harmed if the Interior Ministry continues to threaten EU citizens with deportation.
