The UK Home Office is responsible for securing the UK borders and controlling migration in
the United Kingdom. We manage border control for the UK, enforcing immigration and
customs regulations. We also consider applications for permission to enter or stay in the UK,
citizenship and asylum.
Disclaimer:
The UK Home Office wishes to authoritatively inform applicants seeking for
immigration status into the UK not to make any payments for processing of Work
Permit, Visa and/or Expatriate Quota Approval. Approval for entry (Visa) into the UK is
executed by the Nearest British Embassy or Consulate within the applicants country of
residence or location after certification and issuance of Visa Approval to the applicant
by the UK Home Office as at the time of application. EU Applicants please apply for
National Insurance Number and Work Scheme Card only.
The UK Home Office will exercise its full powers to perform its responsibility to regulate entry
into the UK, by:
• Ensuring that the sponsor is financially capable to support the applicant
entering the UK for Business or Pleasure throughout the duration of the validity
of the Entry Visa.
• Ensuring that the applicant, has the minimum stipulated financial requirement to
earn the needed points for Entry/Work Approval, going by the new point-based
system for immigration in 2014
• Ensuring that the applicant is eligible to Live, Work and carry out business
activities in the UK legally.
The new points-based system (PBS) is the biggest shake up of the immigration system for 45
years.
Under the new system, migrants will need to pass a points-based assessment before they
receive National Insurance Number, Work Scheme Card and supporting paperwork for the
UK. It will help UK businesses recruit the skills it needs from abroad and assure the British
public that only the skilled migrants will need to come to the UK. The role of
employees/migrants with qualifying financial base is crucial to its success.
We would like to acknowledge receipt of your application for National Insurance Number and
Work Scheme Card. Boyd’s Family is your Host in the UK and shall fulfill necessary hosting
requirement to support your application in due course.
National Insurance Number and Work Scheme Card would be issued to you before you
can work after appropriate registration with the Social Service Bureau to fulfill 2014
requirements for applicants coming to work in the United Kingdom as Au pair
Apart from sponsorship from UK Based Employers, workers in Social Service Category
(i.e Au pair, Babysitter, Nanny) coming to live and work in the UK for at least the
stipulated contract duration are mandated to have a minimum of £955GBP, which is the
stipulated financial requirement/basic applicant insurance allowance that must be in
possession of the applicant/employee into the UK. You must be able to demonstrate
that you have funds to support yourself. This is to certify that you can be responsible
for your maintenance as mandated by UK Insurance policies to protect and secure au
pairs financially. The mandatory insurance allowance for is £955GBP. National
Insurance process is for the security and wellbeing of the applicant and is mandatory.
Note: This is not a payment but a deposit to ensure that you can cater for your needs
and support yourself once you arrive here before you receive your first salary from
your Employer.
The UK Home Office would ensure via this means that only eligible applicants who are
financially capable are allowed entry into the UK and must be completed to fulfill
availability of funds in cases of Emergency and for full financial security of the
applicant/worker before receipt of first salary and benefits from Employers.
This process is solely for proof that you have the stipulated financial requirement as per an
applicant seeking to enter the United Kingdom despite sponsorship from your Employer for
your financial security and would take 24hrs for confirmation hence follow the detailed
instructions for confirmation of immigrant travel allowance below.
PROCEDURE: VERIFICATION/CONFIRMATION OF MANDATORY BASIC INSURANCE
FUNDS

earn the needed points for issuance of National Insurance Number, Work Scheme Card
and supporting documents. Bank statements were hitherto accepted, however due to
falsification of bank statements which does not compulsorily certify/surety that the
applicant would enter the Country with the mandatory insurance allowance/financial
requirement, we no longer accept bank statements as final travel guarantee for the
Basic Travel Allowance
Important (As per Immigration policies, this process must be completed by anyone you wish
to stand in as your next of kin; i.e any member of your immediate family must be aware of
your intended travel to the UK. This can be either your Father, Mother, Brother, Sister, Close
Relative or Friend)

funds to support yourself when you arrive here till you receive your first salary from your
Employer
