Sources expect government to confirm move after one prefecture says cutoff date now 30 September
France appears likely to extend its 30 June application deadline for new post-Brexit residency permits, potentially allowing thousands of British nationals an extra three months to secure local healthcare, employment and other rights.
The Côtes d’Armor prefecture in Brittany said on Thursday the deadline for UK citizens legally resident in France before 31 December last year had been extended until 30 September and that the French government website for applications would stay open until that date.
