Today (June 30) is the final day for Europeans to apply for settled status in the UK.

It's free to apply to the scheme which must be completed by the following groups:

Except in a few cases, you need to apply if:

:you're an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen

:you're not an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen, but your family member is (or is an eligible person of Northern Ireland).

The EEA includes the EU countries and also Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway.

This means you need to apply even if you:

:were born in the UK but are not a British citizen - you can check if you're a British citizen if you're not sure

:have a UK 'permanent residence document'

:are a family member of an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen who does not need to apply - including if they're from Ireland

:are an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen with a British citizen family member.

If you have children, you need to apply for them separately.

According to the BBC, nearly six million applications have already been received, but around 400,000 cases are still waiting to be processed.
