Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what proportion of people aged under 25 making an application for limited leave to remain under the private life route were granted a fee waiver in (a) 2021 and (b) 2022.

We do not capture data in a form that can link the age of a fee waiver applicant with their subsequent leave to remain application.

Providing the data would entail the manual scrutiny of each case within the scope of the question, incurring disproportionate cost.
