Costs of family reunion

Costs of family reunion

This guidance provides an overview of the likely costs of refugee family reunion. This is to help sponsors and their advisers plan for the costs in advance and not face unnecessary delay due to lack of funding at crucial parts of the process. We understand that many sponsors will not be able to fund the entire process and have also included some sources of support. An additional checklist has been produced to cover Covid-19 related costs.

Please feel free to reproduce this information where needed to support sponsors.
