UK Implements New Visa Limits for International Students and Dependents
TL;DR
The UK government has announced new visa regulations for international students, aimed at restricting the number of family members they can bring into the country. The new policy will only allow family members of international students on postgraduate research programmes to join them in Britain. The move is part of a broader effort to curb a sharp rise in visas granted to dependents of students. The regulations will go into effect starting January 2024 and are expected to drastically reduce the number of postgraduate students who can bring their spouses or children to the UK.
