One moving into home gets settled (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

paid

'settled' is the definition.
(paying is a kind of settling)

'one moving into home' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'moving into' indicates putting letters inside.
'home' becomes 'pad' (pad can mean a person's home).
'i' placed inside 'pad' is 'PAID'.

'gets' is the link.

(Other definitions for paid that I've seen before include "Discharged a debt" , "Trite phrase" , "Settled the bill" , "Given money (for work)" , "Forked out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
