In the coming days, it will become more challenging for international students to bring their families to the UK. The government of the UK is planning to put restrictions on the dependent visas in the coming months.

This is almost nine times the number of dependent visas issued to candidates in 2019.
People have mixed reviews for this new strategy of the government of the UK.

The economy of the UK benefits by £96,000 from one non-European student. Going into the data, one can easily calculate that the European economy takes ten times more from international students than it can give back.
