Equal visa rights for family members of British and non-British NHS workers

Petition Details

The government has announced that dependants of NHS workers are eligible for a free 1 year extension on their visas. Currently, such concession only applies to migrant NHS workers who are also applying. We believe it should be extended to the dependants of all NHS workers, both British and migrants.

Additional Information

One NHS, one treatment to all NHS workers. Nobody working in the NHS should have to worry about their dependants visas at this time. Their sacrifices and hard work are vital. They should all have the full support of the government.
