Our editorial policy
How VisaEvo creates, checks, and updates UK spouse visa guidance — and what we never claim.
Key takeaways
- 01Every public guide and FAQ is source-checked against official gov.uk pages — not legally reviewed unless an OISC adviser is named.
- 02We re-check monitored gov.uk sources weekly and publish material changes in the guidance changelog.
- 03VisaEvo is self-service software. We do not provide immigration advice or tell you whether you qualify.
- 04When gov.uk updates its guidance, we update our copy and log the change with the date and affected pages.
Authoritative source
The only authoritative source for UK visa rules is gov.uk. VisaEvo summarises publicly available guidance in plain English and links back to the official page on every guide. We monitor 24 gov.uk URLs — see the source methodology for the full list.
Weekly review process
Check monitored gov.uk pages
Every week we re-fetch the gov.uk pages in our allowlist and compare thresholds, fees, and requirement text against VisaEvo guides, FAQs, and in-app copy.
Update affected content
When gov.uk changes, we update the relevant guide, calculator defaults, checklist items, or FAQ — and record the change in the guidance changelog with the date and sources checked.
Publish the changelog
Material changes are logged publicly so you can see exactly what changed and when. See the guidance changelog for the full history.
What we do not claim
VisaEvo content is source-checked against gov.uk. We do not describe it as “legally reviewed,” “reviewed by an immigration solicitor,” or “approved by OISC” unless a named, regulated adviser has contracted to review a specific page — which is not the case today.
For immigration advice on your situation, consult a regulated adviser at gov.uk/find-an-immigration-adviser.
