What is the purpose of a property inspection report for a UK visa application?

Applicants for settlement as a partner, parent, or dependent child, and applicants under an adult dependent relative must provide evidence that they will have adequate accommodation in the UK, without relying on public funds, for their family. This includes other family members who are not included in the application but who live in the same household.

Accommodation is not considered adequate if it is overcrowded. Overcrowding is defined as the meaning in the Housing Act 1985, the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987, or the Housing (Northern Ireland) Order 1988 (as appropriate).

“Obtain an independent assessment of the number of rooms and occupants of the proposed accommodation. A report from a suitably qualified body certifying that a personal inspection has been carried out and giving details of accommodation inspected is usually acceptable for this purpose. Above all, the Entry Clearance officer must be satisfied that the accommodation will not become overcrowded within the definition of the relevant Housing Act or that it will not contravene public health regulations.”
