The way things stand, we are no longer in the EU from 29 March. That is the existing law. And without the EU's agreement to an extension (we've not even made a case for it yet, let alone have it considered), we crash out on that date.

I see no sign yet of an Act of Parliament to change UK law on the matter, so I wouldn't be so sure.

Why do you think Jacob Rees-Mogg has that smug expression on his face?
