Petition Please exempt students of EU nationality from the CSI requirement

Please exempt students holding EU nationality from the requirement of having comprehensive sickness insurance when applying for permanent residency document.
Most of us are in their 20s, healthy, and been living in the UK most of our life. No one really knew about this requirement until recently.

More details

Most of us, despite often speaking better English than our parents' language, realise that we are not eligible to residency documents because of CSI requirement only when our application gets rejected.
