Answered by Mike Tapp
Should individuals wish to remain in the UK beyond the initial 24 months, they can apply for further permission to stay under existing routes within the Immigration Rules, before their current permission to stay expires. Details about the criteria and how to apply are available on the GOV.UK website: Visas and immigration - GOV.UK.
The Home Secretary has agreed to grant leave to stay for up to two years with the ability to access public funds, including treatment and wraparound support in the UK.
