British new immigration policy

20 12 is a year to change the face of British investment immigration policy. Following the cancellation of the PSW visa and the change of the rule of changing the T2 work visa into a permanent resident, the British Home Office recently announced the relevant rules for the adjustment of the family reunion visa. The latest reform rules for family reunion visas announced this time are mainly changes in income and years, and restrictions are imposed on visa applicants. The previous spouse visa did not involve salary requirements, but the new policy raised the minimum annual salary of the spouse visa guarantor to 18600, or about 186000 RMB. For families with children, the minimum income standard is 22,400. For each additional child, the income limit increases by 2,400, and so on. In addition, starting from June 20th13 and 10, all family visa applicants must pass the corresponding tests and provide proof that their English listening and speaking ability has reached B 1 level, which is equivalent to IELTS 4.0~4.5 or above, otherwise they will be ordered to leave the country within a time limit. Although the visa requirements for British immigrants to change their permanent residence and reunite with their families have been raised again and again, Britain welcomes overseas investment immigrants. It is understood that if you invest 6,543,800,000 pounds in the UK, you can obtain permanent residency in the UK within two years. If you invest 5 million pounds in Britain, you can get permanent residency after three years. The previous investment of 6,543.8+0,000 pounds, and the policy of obtaining permanent residency after five years will still be maintained.
