Immigration: Syria
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department is taking to process the settlement protection ILR applications from Syrian nationals.
Answered by Mike Tapp
The pause on processing settlement protection applications from Syrian nationals has been lifted.
We are working through the outstanding cases in line with the relevant published policy guidance taking into account the latest published country policy information on Syria. Each application will be considered on its individual merits and some cases may require further consideration and evidence gathering.
We will not remove anyone to their own or any other country where they would face persecution or serious harm.
