Is my wife entitiled for free NHS services?

Post by ref786 » Mon Mar 03, 2014 11:45 am

Hi There,

I have a quick query. I have an ILR status and brough my wife to the UK from India on 1sep 2013 now she is expecting a child and due date is around 20th of September 2014. I am wondering if NHS services will be free to her? Please reply.

Many Thanks,
Ref

If she has a valid spouse visa, then yes it is free. NHS is not free for people in the UK on a visitor visa.
