Rejected petition Stop extorting immigrants! NHS surcharge £500 to over £1500 for 2½ visa.
The government should look into the extortion. Immigrants work so hard to get the economy running and gets nothing in return from the government. Every immigrants pays NI and Tax, yet every 2½ you have to pay the Nhs. Over the period of 10 years that is a total of over £6000. That is unfair!
More details
Covid has affected everyone in the country and it is unfair for the home office to take out on the immigrants. Knowing fully well how they contribute to the economy through their Taxes and NI. This is not the time. Lives and jobs have been lost and home office decided to frustrate people into depression.
