Review the 2026 visa brake: Publish evidence & create transitional arrangements

Petition Details

Publish evidence & methodology for the 2026 visa brake, review the country and route list, and create transitional arrangements for applicants with confirmed university offers, scholarships, sponsored specialist roles, and women facing severe restrictions on education or work in their home countries

Additional Information

The visa brake can refuse overseas Student and Skilled Worker applications by nationality. The Government should publish the evidence, thresholds and comparative data used, explain in more detail why some countries and routes were included while others were not, and protect genuine applicants, including women facing severe restrictions on education or work in their home countries.
