Fee Waiver Support

Due to the ever-rising costs of applying for a visa in the UK, in some cases by as much as 35% – fewer people are able to afford the cost that come with applying to move to the UK.

However, applicants may be able to apply for a fee waiver, which means that if your application is successful, you can get a visa for free. Fee waivers are only available for applications for limited leave to remain. Generally, you cannot apply for a fee waiver if you are applying for Indefinite leave to remain.

Who is Eligible For a Fee Waiver?

In order to be eligible for a fee waiver if you meet any of the following:

  • You cannot afford the visa application fee
  • You are destitute
  • You are at risk of being destitute
  • Your income is not enough to meet a child’s additional needs

For instance, if you are on the 10-year path to indefinite leave to remain and applying based on family or private life, you may qualify for a fee waiver. If granted, this means you won’t need to pay the full application fee.

You can request a fee waiver solely for the Immigration Health Surcharge if you are able to cover the immigration/human rights application fee. If you’re unable to afford both the application fee and the Immigration Health Surcharge, you can apply for a fee waiver for both costs.

If you need support with your application for a fee waiver, get in touch with one of our immigration experts. They can help support you with your application to ensure the best chance of success.
