Government set up team to help 'Windrush Generation'

25 April 2018

Churches Together in England has circulated information about the resources available from the Home Office concerning those of the ‘Windrush Generation’ who may be in difficulties with their British citizenship status.

The Home Office has set up a dedicated web page to help Commonwealth citizens confirm their status in the UK, which can be found here.

The new dedicated team will work across government to help individuals identify and gather evidence to confirm their existing right to be in the UK. The team will include a dedicated contact point and aim to resolve cases within 2 weeks once the evidence has been put together. In addition, no one affected will be charged for the documentation which proves their right to be here.
