This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you want to see changes to eligibility for the adult dependent relative (family visa), but it's not clear how you want eligibility for this visa to be changed.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
