Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer to Question of 3 July 2019 to Question 269726 on Immigration: EU nationals, what estimate he has made of the number of applicants to the EU Settlement Scheme for whom HMRC holds tax credit records and not PAYE data.
Information on the number of applicants to the EU Settlement Scheme for whom HMRC holds tax credit records and not PAYE data is not held by HMRC. Producing estimates based on full administrative data would require setting up data sharing arrangements between the Home Office and HMRC which could only be achieved at disproportionate cost.
