What is a property inspection report?
A property inspection survey is a document required by the UK Border Agency (UKVI) to demonstrate to the Entry Clearance Officer that you have obtained an assessment of the proposed accommodation for the applicant.
The property inspection survey for immigration purposes will be required for all applications for the purpose of settlement.
Spouses and civil partners;
Fiancé(e)s and proposed civil partner;
Unmarried and same-sex partners;
Children; Parents, grandparents and other dependent relatives.
As independent surveyors, HAD can inspect the accommodation and provide an Immigration Accommodation report that will fulfill the UKBA Immigration requirements.
We inspect the sponsors accommodation and write a report detailing the property layout, size of rooms, number of occupants, any defects etc. The accommodation inspection will involve our surveyor assessing that the property:
1) Is free from Category 1 and 2 Hazards under the Housing Act 2004,
2) Is in a reasonable state of repair,
3) Is not statutorily overcrowded under the Housing Act 1985, Part X and shall have sufficient space to accommodate both the current occupiers and the appicant.
4) Is free from conditions that may present a public health nuisance.
The following information will be required to support the inspection in order to process the Report:
1) Name, Sex, Date of Birth, Current address of the applicant
2) Name and address of the sponsor
4) Name and Date of Birth of other occupants in the property to be inspected
How long does the property inspection survey last?
The letter lasts for 3 months from the date it is issued.
How long will the process take?
From the point of submitting the form or the surveyor visiting the property to receiving the letter should take 3-4 working days for a standard service and 1-2 working days for the fast track.
What happens when I submit my forms?
