Deadline is June 30 The city council is urging applicants to the EU Settlement Scheme to seek any support they might need in time for the June 30 deadline. Residents who are European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA) or Swiss citizens, or their family members, need to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) to protect their rights while living in the UK. If they do not apply by this deadline they could lose their existing rights to live, work, and access free healthcare in the UK. Oxford-based charity Asylum Welcome, working with the City Council, is now providing an independent and confidential service offering free support and advice to applicants.
