Earned settlement
2026-11-02 · finance · one of several topics in this statement
The UK government says it reviewed over 200,000 consultation responses and parliamentary committee recommendations, and has refined the settlement framework while keeping the principle that settlement should be earned rather than granted on time alone. It states the starting point for settlement rises from 5 to 10 years, with sooner qualification for sustained contribution and longer routes or ineligibility for those who break the law or immigration rules.
