Understanding Private Life VISAS

If you have established your life in the UK, a Private Life Visa can help you remain in the country legally. This visa is designed for individuals who have built a significant private life in the UK and want to secure their right to stay. You may be eligible to apply for Leave to Remain in the UK based on the length of time you have lived here, regardless of your immigration status.


Eligibility Criteria for Private Life Visas

Under 18 Years Old

If you are under 18 and have spent more than seven years living in the UK, you may be eligible to apply for Leave to Remain. This acknowledges the formative years you have spent in the UK and the impact relocating might have on your life.


Under 25 Years Old

If you are under 25 and have spent at least half of your life in the UK, you can apply for Leave to Remain. This criterion recognises the substantial portion of your life you have spent integrating into UK society.


18 or Over, Less Than 20 Years in the UK

For individuals aged 18 or over who have spent less than 20 years in the UK, you may qualify if you can demonstrate that you would face significant problems living in another country. Examples include not speaking the local language or being unable to learn it, which would severely impact your ability to integrate and live there.


Over 25 Years Old

If you are over 25 and have spent 20 years or more in the UK, you are eligible to apply for Leave to Remain. This reflects your long-term residency and deep-rooted connections to the UK.
