You will most likely have Home status if:

• You are a British or Irish citizen who has resided in the UK, Republic of Ireland, Isle of Man, or Channel Islands for the three years immediately before the start of your course.
     
• You have Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), Indefinite Leave to Enter (ILE), or Right of Abode and have lived in the UK, Republic of Ireland, Isle of Man, or Channel Islands for three years immediately before your course begins. Different criteria apply if your indefinite leave is through the UK’s EU, EEA, or Swiss settlement schemes.
   
• You have been granted refugee status or humanitarian protection in the UK.
     
• You live in the UK, are the spouse, civil partner, or child of a British citizen, and have resided in the UK for three years immediately before the start of your course.
     
• You are a British citizen (or the child or spouse of one) who has lived in a British Overseas territory for three years immediately before your course begins, or in the UK, Isle of Man, or Channel Islands for part of those three years.
     
• You have been living legally in the UK for an extended period (typically half your life).
     You are the child of a Turkish worker, and you and your parent have been living in the UK since before December 31, 2020.

Generally, you will not be eligible for Home fees if your primary reason for living in the relevant area was to pursue full-time education (e.g., attending a boarding school or university).

You may also qualify for Home fee status if you would have met one of the above criteria but:

You have been living outside the UK because you or your parent, spouse, or legal guardian is temporarily employed abroad.

You usually live outside the UK but maintain ongoing connections and residency in the UK, thus being considered a resident in multiple places.
