UK Government Reverses Course on Spousal Visa Salary Threshold Amid Backlash
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Financial Times
The UK government has decided to reduce the salary threshold for spousal visas after facing criticism. The move comes after concerns were raised that the previous threshold of £18,600 ($23,000) per year was too high and was causing unnecessary separation of families. The new threshold will be set at £18,100 ($22,500) per year, making it easier for individuals to bring their foreign spouses to the UK.
