This planner does not store applicant information in browser storage. Changing a valid input updates the URL so you can reopen or share the same fee comparison.
This planner adds each applicant’s visa application fee and published IHS amount for the selected term. It does not estimate the separate six-month maintenance and accommodation evidence requirement, decide who qualifies as a family member, or predict an application outcome.
Use the UK BN(O) family, extension and settlement guide for route categories, family application rules and the settlement boundary. The guide links back here for the household fee comparison.
These amounts are a dated planning estimate. The application portal and live GOV.UK pages determine the amount payable for an individual application.
