I am a Nigerian doctor working in Saudi Arabia. I have visited the UK twice on a visitor's visa. Now I want to go for PLAB2 in September And I want to take my wife and my 4 year old son with me. All three of us are in Saudi Arabia. What visa should I apply for? Do I need to apply separately for each of us please?
A Standard Visitor visa https://www.gov.uk/standard-visitor-visa is the appropriate visa for this scenario. You will need to apply separately for each of you, cross-referencing your family members’ applications to your own as the main applicant.
The PLAB exam is a permitted activity for visitors https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-appendix-v-visitor-rules
