IHS Spouse visa how much!!

Post by pg2353 » Fri Dec 25, 2015 1:13 pm

Hello,

Can anyone please tell or guide me on the IHS fees for the spouse visa? I'm making an spouse application from
Nepal. Now according to UK gov. website the fees is 200 pounds for all visas for a year except for students. (https://www.gov.uk/healthcare-immigrati ... w-much-pay). The spouse visa will be for five years (probation period) so she will be paying 1000 pounds. Now, idk if this is a rip off but when i;m making an application online its coming to whopping 1900 pounds :shock: :cry: My questions is as below?
1. Is that the amount correct? OR is this VFS global is a trying to rip us applicants :oops: :cry: ?

2. Say i pay the IHS amount and how long it will be valid during her stay in the UK"? Does she has to pay again of IHS during her stay in the UK.

This is great platform to help each other out and I would appreciated to you all that if I can get the answers
to this question please. I thank you all in advance for this and all the contribution you all put in this forum which have helped me a lot to process my application.

1) I don't think you pay for 5 years worth of IHS upfront.

This case may give a clue:

2) I think you pay in 2 halves; one payment per visa / visa extension

The first payment is £600 (33 months) and a further £500 when the visa is extended for 2.5 years.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
