UK ADR Visa – Adult Dependant Relative | Expert Guidance
Navigating the complexities of the UK immigration system can be daunting, especially when it comes to securing a visa for an adult dependant relative. The Adult Dependant Relative (ADR) visa is designed to allow family members who require long-term care to join their relatives in the UK. At Primus Solicitors, we offer expert guidance to help you through this intricate process.
Understanding the ADR Visa
The ADR visa allows individuals who need personal care from a family member in the UK to join them. This visa is crucial for those who cannot receive the necessary care in their home country and whose needs cannot be met by any other means. The key requirement is that the applicant must be an adult relative of a person who is either a British citizen, a settled person, or has refugee status in the UK.
Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for the ADR visa, both the applicant and the sponsor in the UK must meet specific criteria:
Relationship: The applicant must be a parent, grandparent, adult child, or sibling of the sponsor. The relationship must be genuine and subsisting.
Care Needs: The applicant must demonstrate that they require long-term care due to age, illness, or disability. It must be proven that this care cannot be provided adequately in the applicant’s home country.
Sponsor’s Capability: The sponsor must be able to prove that they can financially support the applicant without recourse to public funds. They must also demonstrate adequate accommodation to house the applicant.
Sponsorship Requirements: The sponsor needs to be a British citizen, a person with indefinite leave to remain, or someone with refugee status. The sponsor must also show that they are willing and able to provide the necessary care for the applicant.
Application Process
The ADR visa application process involves several steps and can be quite detailed. Here’s a general overview:
Gathering Evidence: Both the applicant and the sponsor must gather and submit substantial evidence to support the application. This includes medical reports, financial documents, proof of accommodation, and evidence of the relationship.
Application Form: The application must be completed accurately, detailing the applicant’s personal information, care needs, and the sponsor’s ability to provide care.
Fees and Biometrics: There are application fees and biometric requirements that must be met. The applicant will need to pay the visa fee and provide biometric information as part of the application process.
Decision: After submission, the Home Office will review the application and make a decision. This process can take several months, depending on the complexity of the case and the completeness of the documentation provided.
