<p>The UK Home Office said it received 142,300 applications for the EU Settlement Scheme in November, compared to more than half a million submitted in the previous month.</p>
<p>This takes the total number received by the end of November to almost 2.6 million (2,592,800).</p>
<div data-google-query-id="CI758uHWvOYCFV3DuwgdlbADYw">
<p>Overall, the number of applications finalised in that time was more than 2.2 million (2,230,900).</p>
<p>Of these, 59% were granted permanent leave to remain in the country, called settled status, and 41% were granted pre-settled status &#8211; which means they have temporary leave to remain and would need to apply again for permanent permission at a later date.</p>
<p>Five applications were refused on &#8220;suitability grounds&#8221;, a Home Office report published on Thursday said.</p>
<p>Some 305,600 were processed in November alone.</p>
<p>This means there is a backlog of more than 360,000 applications where people are still waiting for a decision.</p>
<p>Polish (483,800), Romanian (411,000) and Italian (272,600) nationals have submitted the highest number of applications, according to the figures.</p>
<p>The majority of applications were received from people already living in England (2,372,700), with 127,900 from Scotland, 42,000 from Northern Ireland and 41,500 from Wales.</p>
