Closed 149 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to this pandemic Covid-19 thousands of families are out of pocket due to no jobs and work. Many families are in debt because of the ongoing pandemic. The Government should review and reduces fees for spouses of UK citizens applying for Indefinite Leave to Remain or citizenship this year only.
The covid 19 pandemic has put many families in financial difficulty. In many households only one family member might be working and many households are out of work entirely and there are no guarantees who will survive this pandemic. This is causing significant stress, which the Government could help reduce by reducing the ILR and citizenship fees this year only.
