Employing a Filipino family member as Nanny/domestic help?
Hi.
Does anyone know whether it is possible to employ a family member from back in the Philippines as a nanny or domestic help here in the UK? If yes, what type of visa would this be?
I suspect it will involve ensuring the 'employer' is paying NI/a fair wage etc. Maybe even creating a registered limited company specifically for this purpose?
Any experiences or knowledge welcome.
Thank you.

I doubt very much you'll be able to do this. If memory serves me correctly you'd have to prove that the job was only capable of being done by your relative and that a British citizen wasn't qualified to fulfil the role.
I'm sure someone who knows the rules will post soon.

Maybe get them here on a visit visa and give them "gifts" ?

Thanks for the replies, I guessed it might not be possible. Wishful thinking...

I don't think you can employ the family member of your mrs who are from the Philippines. I have a work colleague who brought his sister-in-law her to look after their 2y/o son(2009). She was on a student visa at that time so she just had to study 2days a week. But now,he can't afford to pay the £9k/yr for her to study so she went home last 2014.
I hope this will help.
