Adult Dependent Visa

Sponsor Parents & Adult Dependent relative to the UK

Apply for a UK Visa for your Parents / Adult Dependent Relative Visa

The Adult Dependent Relative visa enables a non-EEA migrant – under very specific circumstances – to come and live with their qualifying relative in the UK on a permanent basis. Parents, grandparents, siblings and adult children of qualifying UK residents can apply to join their families in the UK.

But, very importantly, for this visa the applicant must be able to show that they need long-term care, because of age, illness or disability, and it must be that such care or treatment is not available to them in their country of residence, either because it is not available or because it is not affordable for them.

This application must be made to the UK visa centre outside the UK: it cannot be made in the UK.  

However, if your parents or Adult Dependent relative are in the UK and there are reasons beyond their control for not being able to apply from their home country they can submit their application outside the Immigration rules. If the application is refused you can appeal the decision and UKVI decision of refusal can be overturned.

Requirements for an Adult Dependent visa

The sponsor in the UK must be either a British citizen, settled in the UK, or a person granted Refugee status or Humanitarian Protection status. 

The applicant must prove, with good medical evidence, that they need long-term care. This could be medical care because they have a medical condition or more general care because they are elderly or frail. 

They must also show that this care is not available to them in their home country, for example, because they require a specific treatment which is not available in that country or because they cannot afford to pay for the care they need, and there is nobody in that country who can or will provide it.

The sponsor in the UK must also show that there will suitable and sufficient accommodation and financial support available for the applicant.
