Petition Action

Scrap the IHS for taxpaying migrants and reduce unfair spouse visa fees.

Petition Details

Abolish the IHS for migrants paying NI/taxes. Reduce spouse visa fees. Redirect £140m from failed schemes to ease bills or slash fees.

Additional Information

The IHS forces migrants to pay twice for the NHS (£5,175 over 5 years + NI/taxes). Spouse visas cost £11,752, making family reunification unaffordable amid energy bills rising 129% and food inflation at 17%. Redirect wasted funds to prioritise struggling families.
