0:58 - Seconnd Lockdown: How it affects your travel and visa application

Strict new coronavirus rules are now in place as the second national lockdown begins.

The measures were introduced starting 05 November after Boris Johnson announced them last Saturday evening.

It is believed the lockdown will be in place until December 2 when different areas of the country will be back into the three-tier system.

But as we mentioned then, it is highly likely that the current lockdown will last a couple of months.

This idea was also echoed by Michael Gove, MP and member of the Cabinet.

Additionally, just today, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rishi Sunak, has made financial arrangements to protect workers and businesses until March 2021.

It, therefore, looks increasingly likely that the lockdown will last beyond the December 2nd date that has been set as the end of this second lockdown

It can be confusing following the constantly changing rules so we gathered the information below to help fill in the blanks.

02:20 - How this affects travelling

You must not leave or be outside of your home except for specific purposes.

Exceptions include work that cannot be done at home, essential activities such as shopping for food or medicine, and to collect a takeaway.

If you live in England, you cannot travel overseas or within the UK, unless for work, education, or other legally permitted reasons, and you should look to reduce the number of journeys you make.

You must not travel if you are experiencing any coronavirus symptoms, are self-isolating as a result of coronavirus symptoms, are sharing a household or support bubble with somebody with symptoms, or have been told to self-isolate after being contacted by NHS Test and Trace.

and the workforce are observed as key workers therefore should remain completely functional.

UKVCAS Service Points are essential services and will remain open throughout the UK so customers can continue to book and attend appointments to progress their visa applications.

Service and Support Centres (SSCs) are also considered as essential services and will remain open.

Whilst lockdowns and regional restrictions are in place, UKVI confirmed that Secure English Language Testing (SELT) is considered as an essential service so testing centers are open during lockdown.

You must not attend your appointment if you are experiencing any coronavirus symptoms or you were asked to self-isolate.

You can contact the government hotline to reschedule your appointment.
