Corrections policy

How we fix an error on this site

Immigration rules change, and mistakes can happen. This is what we do when a page is wrong, and how to tell us. Last updated 10 September 2026.

The short version

If a figure or rule on this site looks wrong, tell us. We check it against the official source, and if the source supports the change, we correct the page and update its checked date.

What we correct

What counts as a correction?

Two kinds, handled differently.

Minor fixes

  • Typing and formatting errorsFixed without a notice.
  • Broken linksReplaced with the current official page.
  • Clearer wordingWhere the meaning does not change.

Major corrections

  • A threshold, fee or document listCorrected in the data, so every page using it changes.
  • A step or rule we got wrongRewritten against the official source.
  • A new checked dateShown at the top of the country page.

When a government changes a threshold, the change is dated and linked to its source on the income requirements page, next to the figure it replaced.

Routine reviews happen anyway. Every country page carries a review date no more than 90 days after its last check, and the site cannot be republished once a review date has passed. See our editorial guidelines for how that works.

Reports

What happens when you report an error?

Three steps, in this order.

Step 1

We find the official source

We review your report within a reasonable time and read the government or embassy page that states the fact in question.

Step 2

We correct what the source supports

If the source confirms the error, we correct the page. If it does not, the page stays as it is, and we can tell you why.

Step 3

We tell you what changed

If you left contact details, we let you know the outcome.
