Version 0 of 1.

Since the referendum, around 28% of EU citizens have had their applications for permanent residency in the UK rejected, new analysis of government data shows.

The data, which includes figures from the last two quarters of 2016, showed more than 800 EU citizens had their permanent residency requests refused with a further 5,500 declared invalid. EU nationals need five years of continued residence in the UK to qualify to stay.

Have you had your application for permanent residency rejected? Why? Are you putting your application together now to stay? What are your big fears and concerns? How complex is the process? Or perhaps you are planning to leave the UK before Britain leaves the European Union? Why? What will you do next? How do you feel?
