Recent proposals by the UK government suggest that refugees fleeing conflict may soon have to pass English language tests to reunite with their families. This regulation could impact those escaping war and persecution, like Afghan women under Taliban rule, who may lack the resources to learn English proficiently. Under the Prime Minister's immigration white paper, alongside work visas and citizenship reforms, a new family policy is expected to clarify the immigration process for refugees by year's end.
Refugees fleeing war zones could be forced to pass tough English tests before they can join their families in the UK, raising concerns from charities.
The prime minister's announcement on work visas and citizenship highlights the need for policy reform on refugee family reunification, which lacks current English requirements.
