Updated to clarify how to consider cases where an applicant has spent time in detention following a conviction and to clarify that the requirement for a child applying as a dependent of a person on the private life route to have been born in the UK has moved from validity to eligibility.

This guidance has been updated to: include links to new guidance covering access to public funds; remove information relating to police registration; include guidance about consideration of compelling compassionate factors.
