A report citing Home Office figures says the number of visas issued to family members of health and care workers remains high despite recent government efforts to tighten related immigration rules. For the year ending March 2026, the Home Office grants 12 health and care visas to workers from Cameroon. Over the same period, 180 visas are issued to family members associated with people from Cameroon. The coverage contrasts the low count of direct work visas with the much larger number of family visas, suggesting that family migration linked to the health and care route continues at a substantially higher level than worker visas alone. The figures reflect visa grants during the specified period and are presented as evidence that policy changes have not led to a proportional reduction in family-related visas for Cameroon. The reporting does not indicate whether all family visas are for dependants of those exact workers or how the visas relate to individual cases, but it highlights the disparity between worker and family visa totals in the published data.
