PARENT OF A CHILD STUDENT VISA

PARENT OF A CHILD STUDENT VISA


The Parent of a Child Student Visa will allow one parent to come to or stay in the UK to care for their child (or children) where the child is studying at an independent fee-paying school under a Child Student Visa.


Requirements for a Parent of a Child Student Visa


In order to qualify for a Parent of a Child Student visa, you will need to satisfy UK Visas & Immigration that:

  • You are aged 18 or over;
  • You are the parent of a child who has, or is at the same time applying for, entry clearance or permission to stay as a Child Student;
  • The Child Student’s other parent is not in the UK and is not seeking to come to the UK;
  • The Child Student is aged between 4 and 11 years old and has, or is at the same time applying for, entry clearance or permission to stay, as a Child Student;
  • You intend to live with the Child Student during your stay in the UK;
  • You have enough money to support yourself without relying on public funds;
  • You do not intend to make the UK your main home and have sufficient funds to maintain your main home outside the UK;


Financial Requirement for a Parent of a Child Student Visa


Subject to the exceptions below, you will need to have £1,560 for each month of your intended stay in the UK up to a maximum of 9 months, plus £625 for each month of your intended stay up to a maximum of 9 months for any child other than the Child Student who will be under your care in the UK.

You will need to have held the money for at least 28 consecutive days ending not more than 31 days before the date of your Parent of a Child Student Visa application.

If you are applying for permission to stay and have been in the UK with permission for more than 12 months then you will be deemed to satisfy the financial requirement for a Parent of a Child Student Visa and will not need to show funds.

If you are applying together with the Child Student for either entry clearance or leave to remain in circumstances where you have both lived in the UK for less than 12 months then you will satisfy the financial requirement if the Child Student satisfies the financial requirement applicable to their application
