We assist you in demonstrating dependency, gathering medical and financial evidence, and ensuring your application meets all Home Office requirements for a successful outcome.
The UK's Adult Dependent Relative (ADR) visa allows a person to bring an adult relative to the UK who requires long-term personal care.
The UK's Adult Dependent Relative (ADR) visa allows a person to bring an adult relative to the UK who requires long-term personal care. The relative applying can be a parent, grandparent, sibling, or child over 18. This route is intended for individuals who, due to age, illness, or disability, cannot perform everyday tasks and require a level of care that is not available or affordable in their home country.
To sponsor a relative, you must be a British citizen, have settled status (Indefinite Leave to Remain), or hold refugee or humanitarian protection status in the UK.
The requirements for the ADR visa are extremely strict, and successful applications result in the relative being granted immediate indefinite leave to remain, allowing them to settle permanently in the UK.

Answers That Make Things Easy
You can sponsor a parent, grandparent, sibling, or child over 18 who requires long-term personal care due to age, illness, or disability.
This means the applicant is physically unable to perform daily tasks for themselves, such as washing, dressing, and cooking. This must be confirmed by medical evidence.
You must provide independent evidence from a doctor, health authority, or social worker in the applicant's country confirming that the required care is non-existent, inaccessible, or not affordable.
You must prove you can support the relative for at least five years without accessing public funds. This involves providing detailed evidence of your income, savings, and accommodation.
No. The Adult Dependent Relative visa application must always be made from outside the UK. It is not possible to switch to this route from within the UK.
Yes. A successful application grants the relative Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) immediately upon their arrival in the UK. They do not need to apply for extensions.
The most common reason for refusal is failing to provide sufficient evidence that the required care is genuinely unavailable or unaffordable in the applicant's home country.
Yes, a brother or sister in the UK can sponsor you, provided they are over 18, a British citizen or settled, and can meet all the financial and care requirements.
You need a letter or report from a doctor or health professional detailing the applicant's condition and explaining why they cannot perform everyday tasks for themselves.
Standard processing for applications made outside the UK is typically up to 24 weeks. The timeline can vary depending on the complexity of the case and where the application is made.
