Information, not advice

This tool gives general information about the published UK immigration fees and rules — it is not advice on an individual case, and it does not decide whether anyone qualifies. Figures are summarised from GOV.UK and can change; always check the official pages before applying. For advice on a specific situation, find a regulated adviser via GOV.UK — Find an immigration adviser (the Immigration Advice Authority, formerly OISC).
