Children looked after and care leavers
Where a looked after child is from the EU, an application for settled status in the UK for the child will need to be made.
An application may need to be made by the allocated social worker where the child is subject to a care order or their parent where the child is accommodated under section 20. The EU settlement status procedures sets out details for social workers on both applying on behalf of the child or to support parents in making such an application.
