We are looking for couples with one UK partner (citizen or settled resident) and one partner from the EU, EEA or Switzerland who would need a visa to settle in the UK, and who would like to share their experiences of the post-Brexit immigration system.
Your participation will help us to understand the impact of the immigration rules on UK/EU couples after Brexit and contribute to public, policy and legislative debate in this area.
You could be at any stage of the process – considering whether to apply; working on your application; having your visa decision; or in the process of settlement. But we also want to hear from couples who are unable to apply, had a visa in the UK rejected, or have decided against moving to the UK because of the post-Brexit immigration requirements.
We would like to hear from any couple in this situation, but we are particularly interested to speak to you if you are in a couple with any of the following
- children or caring responsibilities
- one or both partners from Eastern Europe
- one or both partners from ethnic minority background
- same gender and gender diverse couples
- one or both partners do not have university level education
As a thank you for your time, we will offer each couple a UK Highstreet voucher (or a different kind of voucher if you are outside the UK).

Are you part of a UK-EU couple who would like to get involved with this research?
