More than 150,000 Hungarians apply for permanent UK residence by the deadline
By the end-June deadline, 154,100 Hungarian citizens had applied for a permanent residence permit in the UK, fresh Home Office figures released on Thursday show.
The British government has said that in justified cases, it will accept applications submitted beyond the deadline for an indefinite period.
The UK authorities have said the fact that an application has been made, in the period leading up to the assessment, guarantees EU citizens in the UK the rights they acquired before Brexit under British EU membership, even if their application for established status is submitted late.
After Brexit, Britain became Hungary’s biggest non-EU trading partner, the ambassador said.
Further, the UK has the biggest Hungarian-born population outside the Carpathian Basin and is the second or third largest destination for Hungarian students, the ambassador said, adding that Britain wants to strengthen bilateral relations.
