This is irrelevant because the offer is only for the 3 million people eligible. That group includes:
==About 350,000 UK passport holders, and 2.6 million others eligible, will be able to come to the UK for five years.==
==Under the government's plans, all British Overseas Nationals and their dependants will be given right to remain in the UK, including the right to work and study, for five years. At this point, they will be able to apply for settled status, and after a further year, seek citizenship.==
