It's all about Shelter

The question is when is accommodation overcrowded. This is an important question when it comes to immigration and depends on a persons per room allowance given in the 1988 Housing Act. Examples of adequate accommodation could be for instance, in a 3 rooms could accommodate 5 persons; 4 rooms 7.5 persons ( I am not sure what the half a person represents) but hey! 5 rooms 10 people etc. For the purposes of the UKV decision maker - there are responsible for ensuring there is adequate accommodation to house the incoming migrant, alongside the Sponsor (if there is one) and their family.  For these purposes a living room can be counted as a sleeping room. An example being a couple with one child over the age of one in a one bedroomed flat. An argument that the accommodation is adequate is possible. It is always wise to have accommodation inspected for the purposes of immigration to alleviate or lessen the risk of a refusal on the basis of insufficient evidence of adequate accommodation or inadequate accommodation. Also remember that age and gender are also considerations.
