The UK government has now confirmed that the Immigration health Surcharge (IHS) for migrants will increase from 27 october 2020.
Current Charges | From 27 October 2020 | Increased Amount | |
Students & Tier 5 Youth Mobility Visa | £300 | £470 | £170 |
Other visa and immigration applications | £400 | £624 | £224 |
All UK immigration applications made before the 27 October 2020 will be hundreds of pounds cheaper than those completed after that date and applicants are urged to consider this when making a decision when to apply.
On a separate note, Health & Care workers can now claim for IHS refunds and more details can be seen here.
