Closed Extend Visa extensions for health workers during coronavirus (COVID-19)

Closed on

At the height of the coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic the Government determined that all health workers were crucial to the fight against the pandemic and declared this: - if you are a health worker, you may be eligible for a 1-year extension to your visa for free

At the height of the coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic the Government determined that all health workers were crucial to the fight against the pandemic and declared this.

Now that the pandemic has returned and health workers are again being called upon to commit themselves, it would only be prudent to again give those who were not covered in the first period the same opportunity to get an extension on their visas free for a year.
