Eligibility for Home-fees in The UK

I heard that students are eligible for home fees in the UK if they have been living there for a minimum of 3 years.I am a currently doing my A levels in the UK and just completed my year 12. I am born and brought up in India and shifted to the UK exactly 12 months ago. By the time I complete my A levels I would have lived in the UK for about 2 years after which I am planning to apply for medicine at University. My question is that if I apply for University this year and get an offer will I be paying the fees as an international student or will I pay the home fees? Cause I don't mind paying the fees of first year as an international student but after my completing my first year at University, I would also complete the 3 year threshold. So would I be eligible to pay the home fees from the 2nd year of my couse at the University?

Hi Graeme,
I am currently living here under a Tier 2 Dependent Visa, both my parents work in the NHS so I came as their dependent.(Original post by Graeme SFE)Hi there,

Can you please confirm your Home Office status?

Thanks, Graeme

Hi Jason
Yes, most probably by September 2024, if not then I might take a gap year to get some work experience and apply on 2025. Hope that helps.
