Free UK Visa Eligibility Test: Check Your Eligibility in 2 Minutes
Are you considering applying for a UK visa but unsure where to start? Our Free Visa Eligibility Test provides an immediate assessment of your potential eligibility for various UK visa categories. Developed by immigration solicitors in Manchester, this tool helps you understand your visa prospects before investing time and resources in the application process.

Why Take Our Free Visa Eligibility Test?
Instant Results Without Commitment
Our online assessment takes just 2 minutes to complete and provides immediate feedback on your potential visa eligibility. There’s no need to navigate complex government forms or wait weeks for a basic understanding of your visa prospects.
Expert Designed Questions
The test has been developed by experienced immigration solicitors who understand the key factors UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) consider when assessing applications. Each question targets specific eligibility criteria used in official visa assessments.
Clear Next Steps
Based on your results, you’ll receive tailored guidance on what to do next, including when professional legal advice could significantly improve your chances of success.
How Our Visa Eligibility Test Works
Simple 8 Step Process
Our assessment consists of eight carefully designed questions covering essential aspects of visa eligibility:
- Your age group
- Purpose of your UK visit
- Passport validity
- Previous visa history
- Employment status
- Financial situation
- Criminal record status
- Intended duration of stay
Comprehensive Scoring System
Your answers generate a personalised score based on current UK immigration rules. The system evaluates multiple factors simultaneously, just as UKVI would during an actual application assessment.
Three-Tier Results
You’ll receive one of three possible outcomes:
- High Chance of Eligibility: You appear to meet key requirements for a UK visa
- Moderate Chance of Eligibility: You may qualify but certain factors need attention
- Low Chance of Eligibility: Significant challenges may exist, requiring professional guidance

Common Factors Affecting Visa Eligibility
Financial Requirements
Most UK visa categories require proof of sufficient funds to support yourself during your stay. The exact amount varies depending on the visa type, your circumstances, and whether you have dependents.
English Language Proficiency
Many visa categories require proof of English language ability through approved tests or qualifications. This requirement varies depending on the visa type and your circumstances.
Immigration History
Previous visa refusals, overstaying, or breaches of immigration laws can significantly impact your current application. Full disclosure of your immigration history is essential.
Criminal Record
Certain criminal convictions may lead to visa refusal. The impact depends on the nature of the conviction, sentence received, and time elapsed since the offence.
Why Professional Legal Advice Matters
Complex and Changing Rules
UK immigration law is notoriously complex and subject to frequent changes. What was true last year may not apply today. Professional immigration solicitors stay current with all regulatory changes.
Personalised Assessment
Every case is unique. Online tools provide general guidance, but only a qualified immigration solicitor can assess your specific circumstances and identify potential issues or opportunities.
Maximising Success Rates
Professional guidance can significantly improve your chances of success. Immigration solicitors know how to present your case effectively, address potential concerns, and ensure all requirements are met.
