Estimate additional maintenance funds for dependants using selected current UK, Sweden and Canada source-backed rules. The useful output is not just the number: it is the number together with the assumptions and eligibility checks that can change what you should do next.

No account required.

What this calculator uses

The inputs on this page are Destination / rule, Accompanying adult dependants, Accompanying children, Months to model where monthly rules apply. The calculation uses the values you enter for Destination / rule, Accompanying adult dependants, Accompanying children, Months to model where monthly rules apply and returns the planning output described by the tool.

How to read the result

This calculates funds only. Whether a student is permitted to bring dependants is a separate eligibility question and can depend on course level, sponsorship or date.

What the number does not prove

Cost results are scenarios based on the values you enter. Keep official visa financial minimums separate from realistic tuition and living costs, and recheck current fees before committing funds.

Best next step

Replace planning defaults with your real tuition, city, funding and one-off expenses; then verify any legal financial threshold against the current immigration authority.

Verify the governing ruleThis page explains a planning method, not a universal licensing rule. If your credential has a mandatory total, category, provider, or reporting rule, use the issuing authority as the final source.
Important: This is a planning aid. Universities, scholarship providers, immigration authorities, recognition bodies and professional regulators control their own decisions and changing requirements.
