HI Dino99

The news says
The new rules will apply to anyone applying as the husband, wife, civil partner, unmarried partner, same-sex partner, fiance(e) or proposed civil partner of a British citizen or a person settled in this country. They will be compulsory for people applying from within the UK as well as visa applicants from overseas.
IMHO this is only for partners of people already settled in the United Kingdom.

Experts please advise...

Please Read on

  • Will this requirement apply to spouses/partners of migrant workers or students?
    No. It will not apply to spouses and partners of those in the UK on a temporary visa such as students or workers under the points based system.
So confirmed that its not required for any PBS
