Ers 2019, mae dinasyddion yr UE sy’n byw yn y DU wedi gallu gwneud cais am statws preswylydd sefydlog neu statws preswylydd cyn\-sefydlog drwy Gynllun Preswylio’n Sefydlog i Ddinasyddion yr UE y Swyddfa Gartref, i’w galluogi i fod â’r un hawliau â dinasyddion Prydain, ar ôl mis Mehefin eleni.


Mae ffigurau diweddaraf y Swyddfa Gartref yn awgrymu bod y mwyafrif o’r bobl sydd angen gwneud cais wedi gwneud hynny, ond credir bod rhai grwpiau, a all gynnwys pobl agored i niwed neu’r henoed neu bobl sydd wedi byw yma ers blynyddoedd maith, nad ydynt yn ymwybodol bod angen iddynt wneud cais, neu sydd â phryderon am wneud cais.


Yn ei lythyr, a gyhoeddwyd heddiw mewn un ar ddeg o ieithoedd, dywedodd Mark Drakeford:



> “Rwy’n ysgrifennu’r llythyr agored hwn i ddweud wrthych chi a’ch teuluoedd y bydd croeso ichi bob amser yma yng Nghymru.
> 
> 
> “Mae eich cyfraniad i’n cymunedau, ein gwasanaethau cyhoeddus a’n busnesau yn amhrisiadwy. Rwy’n deall pa mor anodd y mae’r blynyddoedd diwethaf wedi bod i chi, gydag ansicrwydd Brexit, ac yn awr gyda phandemig parhaus sydd wedi gwneud ymdopi gyda sefyllfa anodd yn anoddach fyth.
> 
> 
> “Hoffwn ichi wybod ein bod ni eisiau ichi aros yma, a pharhau i fwynhau’r rhyddid a’r hawliau y gall Cymru, fel gwlad groesawgar, eu cynnig ichi.
> 
> 
> “Mae Llywodraeth y DU yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i holl breswylwyr yr Undeb Ewropeaidd, yr Ardal Economaidd Ewropeaidd a’r Swistir, a oedd yn byw yn y DU erbyn 31 Rhagfyr 2020, i wneud cais i’r Cynllun Preswylio’n Sefydlog i Ddinasyddion yr UE, i sicrhau y gallant barhau i fyw a gweithio yma. Nid yw hyn yn berthnasol i ddinasyddion Iwerddon.
> 
> 
> “Y dyddiad cau ar gyfer gwneud cais yw 30 Mehefin 2021\. Mae’r dyddiad hwn yn prysur agosáu.
> 
> 
> “Gwyddom nad yw rhai pobl wedi gwneud cais i’r cynllun eto. Gall fod sawl rheswm dros hyn. Efallai eich bod chi wedi dod i fyw i’r DU sawl blwyddyn yn ôl a heb sylweddoli bod angen ichi wneud cais. Efallai eich bod chi wedi cael plant ers ichi fod yn byw yma, ac nad oeddech chi’n sylweddoli bod angen ichi wneud cais ar eich cyfer chi eich hun a’ch plant. Efallai nad yw’n hawdd ichi gael mynediad at ffôn clyfar neu gyfrifiadur. Neu efallai eich bod yn teimlo wedi’ch llethu gan y broses neu’n bryderus nad oes gennych y gwaith papur cywir.

> “Beth bynnag fo’ch sefyllfa, hoffai Llywodraeth Cymru helpu. Rydym wedi sicrhau cymorth arbenigol, annibynnol am ddim i’ch helpu drwy’r broses ymgeisio. Rydym yn gweithio gyda rhwydwaith o arbenigwyr cyfreithiol, Cyngor ar Bopeth, ac elusennau i wneud yn siŵr y gallwch droi at rywun i gael cymorth i wneud eich cais ac aros yma yng Nghymru.

> “Rwy’n annog holl ddinasyddion yr UE nad ydynt wedi gwneud cais eto i ymweld â gwefan Paratoi Cymru lle cewch yr holl wybodaeth angenrheidiol.

> “Rydym eisiau ichi aros yng Nghymru. Bydd croeso ichi yma bob amser.”

Since 2019, EU citizens living in the UK have been able to apply for settled or pre\-settled status via the Home Office’s EU Settlement Scheme, to enable them maintain the same rights as British citizens, after June this year.


Latest Home Office figures suggest the majority of those who need to apply have done so, but believe there are still groups, potentially including vulnerable or elderly citizens or those who have been here for many years, who may be unaware they need to apply or have concerns about doing so.


In his letter, published today in 11 languages, Mark Drakeford said:



> “I am writing this open letter to you and your families to tell you that you are, and will always be, welcome in Wales.
> 
> 
> “The contribution you make to our communities, our public services and our businesses is invaluable. I understand how hard the last few years have been for you, with all the uncertainty that Brexit has brought, and now, an ongoing pandemic which has made a difficult situation much harder to deal with.
> 
> 
> “I want you to know that we want you to stay here, and continue to enjoy the freedom and rights that Wales, as a welcoming nation, can offer you.
> 
> 
> “All EU, EEA or Swiss citizens who were resident in the UK by 31 December 2020 are required by the UK Government to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme, to secure their status to continue to live and work here. This does not apply to Irish citizens.
> 
> 
> “The deadline for applying is 30 June 2021\. This date is approaching fast.
> 
> 
> “We know there are people who haven’t applied to the scheme yet. There could be many reasons for this. You may have come to live in the UK many years ago and not realise that you need to apply. You may have had children whilst living here and not know that you need to apply for yourselves and your children. You may have problems accessing a smartphone or computer. Or you may simply be overwhelmed by the process or worried that you don’t have the correct paperwork.
> 
> 
> “Whatever your situation, the Welsh Government would like to help. We have secured specialist, independent and free support to help you though the application process. We are working with a network of legal specialists, Citizens’ Advice, and charities to make sure that there is someone you can turn to help you make your application and stay here in Wales.
> 
> 
> “I’m urging all EU citizens who have not applied to visit our Preparing Wales website where you will find all the information you need.
> 
> 
> “We want you stay in Wales, where you will always be welcome.”
