An immigration Property Inspection Report is required depending on the type of visa application being made and your living arrangements. A settlement application where the Applicant is subject to immigration control should show adequate accommodation as they are not eligible for public housing. 

Here are a few situations where a property inspection report might be requested:

Family Sponsorship: When sponsoring a family member for immigration, some countries require the sponsor to provide evidence of suitable and adequate accommodation for the sponsored individual or family. In such cases, a property inspection report may be required to assess the living conditions and confirm that the accommodation meets the necessary standards.

Investor or Entrepreneur Visas: Some countries have investor or entrepreneur visa programs that require applicants to invest a certain amount of money in the country. As part of the application process, a property inspection report may be required to verify the existence and value of the property or business premises where the investment will take place.

Employer-Sponsored Visas: In certain cases, an employer sponsoring a foreign worker for a work visa may be required to provide evidence of suitable accommodation for the employee. A property inspection report may be requested to ensure that the accommodation meets the requirements set by the immigration authorities.

It’s important to note that the specific requirements for a property inspection report can vary greatly between immigration applications and how a property is owned. Therefore, it is advisable to consult the official immigration website or contact the relevant immigration authorities of the specific country you are interested in for accurate and up-to-date information on their requirements for property inspection reports in immigration applications.

However, here are some general considerations when your property is being assessed for Immigration Purposes that will potentially be considered:

Size and Space: Immigration authorities may require that the accommodation provides sufficient living space for the individuals or families involved. This typically includes considerations such as the number of rooms, square footage, and overall liveable area.

Safety and Sanitation: The accommodation should meet basic safety and sanitation standards. This can involve aspects such as functioning utilities (water, electricity, heating), proper ventilation, adequate lighting, and compliance with local building codes.

Adequate Facilities: The accommodation should have suitable facilities to support the occupants’ needs. This may include a kitchen, bathroom(s), and appropriate storage space.

Privacy: Immigration authorities may consider the level of privacy provided by the accommodation, particularly for families or unrelated individuals sharing a living space.

Local Housing Standards: The accommodation should meet the minimum housing standards set by the local authorities in terms of habitability, health, and safety.
