Background

When the MAC review is completed in June 2025, we want the government to lower the Income Requirement for family visas to £20,800 to reflect lower average earnings in areas outside London & the Southeast, including: Midlands & Southwest England Northern England & Wales Scotland & Northern Ireland

Additional details

The £29,000 threshold is unfairly high, breaching the human rights of UK citizens with overseas partners, and forcing families apart. This discriminates against working-class people, especially outside London. The MAC review must end this cruel policy. Labour inherited it—now you must fix it and support the families you represent.
