A GROWING number of people sought immigration advice towards the end of 2020, Citizens Advice Scotland (CAS) said yesterday.
In November, CAS centres provided 1,237 pieces of advice related to settled status, an increase of 16 per cent on the previous month.
CAS expects demand for immigration advice to rise further next year, with the approach of the June 30 deadline for citizens of the European Union, European Economic Area and Switzerland to apply for settled status.
