Coronavirus Communication (31 January 2020)
Dear Members
UKVI are preparing some short term interim guidance on the implications for immigration of the Coronavirus outbreak. The aim is to issue the guidance by the end of next week (7/2/20). Any members with Chinese clients whose leave runs out today (31/1/20) and cannot return to China because of the Coronavirus do not need to take any action and should wait for the interim guidance to be published.
Members will be aware that all the VACs and Test Centres in China are currently closed.
UKVI are working on the following scenarios:
- People in the UK whose leave is expiring but they cannot return to China due to the Coronavirus.
- Sponsors with people who are still in China and cannot return to the UK. The guidance will also look to reassure sponsors of the pragmatic approach that will be taken by UKVI in the current circumstances.
- For other countries where travel bans apply can individuals exceptionally apply to the UK from those countries.
- Given that all the VACs are closed in China how will “in-flight” applications be dealt with.
UKVI would be very grateful for feedback from members on whether there are any other scenarios that they should consider covering in the interim guidance. They are keen to ensure that the guidance that is issued covers all the possible scenarios at this point. At this stage all the guidance is being prepared as short term interim measures. Should that position change than UKVI will be in touch again.
If you have any feedback for UKVI at this point please email [email protected]
