Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether immediate family members of people with a Tier 2 Visa working in the NHS will be given leave to remain if that person dies of covid-19.
The Home Secretary confirmed, in a letter to the Home Affairs Select Committee on 29 April, families of eligible frontline healthcare workers who sadly pass away due to contracting the COVID-19 virus, will be granted immediate Indefinite Leave to Remain free of charge.
