The United Kingdom is set to announce new restrictions that will most likely stop Nigerian students, and other nationalities studying in the UK from bringing their families over.
According to the report, the crackdown, which will see all masters students and many other postgraduates banned from bringing family over, will be announced this week.
The new UK Immigration policy will see all master’s students and many other post-grads banned from bringing family over.
However, the UK media House reported that the ban will not apply to Ph.D. students, whose courses usually last between 3 and 5 years and are highly skilled.
This follows the reports that net migration into the UK has skyrocketed to 1 million with Tory MPs asking the Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, “to get a grip on the rocketing numbers.”
To get a hold of the climbing numbers, UK ministers are expected to announce the immigration clampdown on Tuesday or Wednesday.
It reports that “Rishi Sunak is expected to come out fighting on immigration – pointing out they are figures he inherited as they date back to the year ending December 2022 – two months after he became PM.
“There has been an explosion in the number of people coming to Britain piggybacking on their relative’s student visa.
“Students brought 135,788 family members to Britain last year – nine times more than in 2019.
“Last year, 59,053 Nigerian students brought over 60,923 relatives.”
“We have got to get a grip,” a Tory MP told The Sun on Sunday.
