Crossing UK border with a pre-settled EU family member permit
Posted: Mon Jun 06, 2022 9:25 am
I have a pre-settled permit as a EU family member and non-EU passport.
I noticed that the way my documents are check when crossing the UK border is changed in 2022.
In 2021, the same documents would trigger a passport stamp and a fingerprint check. In 2022, none of these has happened so far. Recently I've been also asked a question for the first time ever while crossing the border with pre-settled documents: if I have any relatives in the UK - never happened before.
I was wondering if any procedures or legislation in relation to these border checks have changed?
