British Nationals (Overseas) citizens can apply for this new BNO visa together with family members from the same family. Under special circumstances, the Ministry of the Interior may exercise its discretion to grant the visa to other family members who are highly dependent on the same family. Family members must belong to the same family as the citizen BNO. If a person usually lives at the same address and intends to live together during their stay in the UK, they will belong to the same family as a BNO citizen.
