According to recent United Kingdom government regulations, foreign students in Britain are not permitted to obtain visit visas for their family if they are enrolled in a postgraduate research study.
These rules also apply to students enrolled in a course sponsored by the British government.
Experts have confirmed that the United Kingdom government's decision will have a significant impact on private universities in Britain that they rely significantly on foreign student fees.
It is important to note that these judgements will have a significant impact on the United Kingdom's reputation as an international destination for students desiring to study.
For his part, James Cleverly, the British Home Secretary, stated that with the implementation of the new visa limitations, the government will be able to manage the unreasonable actions of foreign students and their families.
The British Home Secretary also stated that these limits will apply to foreign students in the UK, with the exception of those participating in postgraduate research courses and beneficiaries of government-funded scholarships.
It is highlighted that these policies will dramatically reduce immigration to the United States by tenfold.
It is worth noting that these visa procedures in the United Kingdom were announced in May 2023 by the previous government, who was represented by Suella Braverman, as official reports at the time showed that net immigration reached to 672,000 persons.
James Cleverly stated that the present British government has fulfilled its agreement with people in order by reducing immigration to Britain, and that his government is developing strict strategies to quickly reduce the numbers and prevent travellers from interfering with the immigration system to the United Kingdom.
