Question to the Home Office:

What steps she is taking to support non-UK (a) veterans and (b) armed forces dependants with regularising their immigration status.

I am immensely proud that brave servicemen and women from around the world want to call the UK their home after their service.

The Government has launched a public consultation on how we recognise their contribution by not only smoothing the pathway to residency and citizenship, but also by waiving the fee for doing so after 12 years of service.
