Dependants Visa Cost & Eligibility Calculator
Combined visa application, IHS, and maintenance-fund costs for bringing a partner and children — plus eligibility flags most people miss.
Most students can't bring dependants on this route. Since January 2024, only PhD/research students and government-sponsored students on courses of 6+ months can bring a partner or children on a Student visa. Taught master's, undergraduate, and diploma students generally can't — your family would need another route (e.g. the sponsor switching to Skilled Worker after graduation).

Application fees, IHS rates, and maintenance fund amounts are approximate published Home Office figures and change periodically — always confirm the current rate on gov.uk before applying.
