PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Visas: Married People (10 June 2020)

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, for what reason the phrase If you have experienced a loss of income due to coronavirus, you will not be disadvantaged was removed from her Department's advice for spouse visa applicants and their sponsors published on 8-9 June 2020.

On 10 June we updated the GOV.UK pages with guidance on the minimum income requirement. An early draft of the guidance was incorrectly uploaded to GOV.UK, which was then quickly replaced with the correct version, thereby ensuring our guidance is as clear as possible on how a spouse or partner will not be disadvantaged from an immigration perspective from the Covid-19 pandemic.
