Visas: Families

Asked by Vikki SladeLiberal DemocratHome OfficeTabled Answered 30 April 2025UIN 47558

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when she expects the Migration Advisory Committee's review into the financial requirements for the Family Visa route to be published; and what plans she has for the minimum salary threshold for the Family Visa.

Answered by Seema Malhotra

The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) is an independent body, and their review of the financial requirements will be robust and transparent. It is expected the MAC will issue their report in the Summer. We will carefully consider the MAC’s recommendations before making any further changes.
