Advice NI has said Northern Ireland must follow new Debt Relief Orders (DROs) rules applied this week in England and Wales – transformative measures for those facing the burden of debt. In his spring budget, the Chancellor announced the removal of the £90 administration fee associated with Debt Relief Orders (DROs) and increased the maximum debt threshold from £30,000 to £50,000 – whilst also increasing the allowable value of retained motor vehicles from £2,000 to £4,000 - across England and Wales.

Advice NI in partnership with MCNI continues to offer EUSS advice to EU nationals and their family members and family members of NI relevant persons.

As part of refugee week Advice NI ran an advice session covering everything you need to know about UK government schemes available to Ukrainian nationals. Both for Ukrainian nationals aiming to arrive to NI and for those already living in NI.

During the last year, Advice NI in partnership with Migrant Centre NI, funded by the Home Office, continued to provide immigration advice and support to vulnerable EU, EEA or Swiss Citizens and their family members, family members of NI relevant persons and family members of frontier workers during the application process and securing the immigration status under the EU Settlement Scheme. 

Those who apply late, and joining family members, will have rights protected while their application is determined.

Welcome the new members to the EU Settlement Status team. Lets find out something more about them.
