If your child lives in the UK and is British or has Indefinite Leave to Remain, you can make an application to live in the UK based on your relationship with your child.
To be eligible to make this application you cannot be in a relationship with the other parent of your child, and you must be unable to make an application as a partner with anyone else who is settled in the UK. If the child isn’t already living with you, you have to show that the person with whom your child lives is either British or has Indefinite Leave to Remain.
Just having a child living in the UK isn’t enough – you need to show either that you have sole responsibility for your child, or that you have the right of access to the child (this can either be a formal arrangement, through the courts, or an informal arrangement, between you and the child’s other parent).
You also need to be able to demonstrate that you take an active part in your child’s life.
This application can be made from the UK or from overseas. You can apply for settlement after five years.
Maintenance and accommodation
You are free to take any employment you like on this visa, but not to access public funds. You must show that you are able to maintain yourself in the UK, and that you have suitable accommodation arranged, when you apply for your visa.
English language requirement
If you are not a national of an English speaking country, and don’t have a degree that was taught in English, you need to have passed the Speaking and Listening elements of an approved English test at level A1 CEFR.

Mexit, or Max as he is called, is a man who believes in living dangerously, so though he had sought our advice over a period of about three months, it was not until the day that his visa was due to expire that he came into our office and instructed us to act for him in an application to remain in the UK on the basis of his relationship with his son, Arion, who is a British citizen.
Has your Rights of Access Visa been refused?
Appeal rights have changed
Since 06 April 2015 the right of appeal has been severely limited, so that while you can still appeal if your visa is refused, you can only do so on human rights grounds. Human rights law itself is in the process of changing, with the government’s stated intention to repeal the Human Rights Act and replace it with a British Bill of Rights.
You can read more about the appeal process, and how we can help you with your appeal, on our Appeals page.
