Lowering UK family visa income bar may raise net migration; says advisory panel
A threshold of £24,000 to £28,000 would prioritise economic concerns and reduce burden on public funds. A threshold of £23,000 to £25,000 would help families remain self-sufficient without exceeding the minimum wage. Live Events The UK's Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) has recommended that the government lower the minimum income required for a British citizen or settled resident to sponsor a partner's visa. The committee said that a threshold between £23,000 and £25,000 could support families without forcing them to live apart, but it also warned that such a move could slightly raise net migration, according to a report by The Guardian As of April 2024, the income requirement for sponsoring a foreign partner was raised to £29,000. The MAC's new report suggests the increase to £38,700—planned by the previous Conservative government—should be dropped. It found the policy would likely conflict with international law, especially Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which protects the right to family committee offered several options:(Join our ETNRI WhatsApp channel for all the latest updates)If the threshold drops to £24,000, the report estimates that net migration could rise by 1% to 3% in future per the Guardian report, committee chair Professor Brian Bell said, 'While the decision on where to set the threshold is ultimately a political one, we have provided evidence on the impacts of financial requirements on families and economic wellbeing.'The MAC also advised that the threshold should not be higher for families with children, despite their higher living costs, due to the severe impact separation has on children. It recommended maintaining the same threshold across all regions of the reacted with mixed feelings. Caroline Coombs, co-founder of Reunite Families UK, said: 'Any threshold even at minimum wage would still separate many groups of people who just want to be a family here in the UK.'She added: 'We are calling on the home secretary to have the political courage to change a system … destroying the lives of British and settled residents and their children for over a decade.'The Home Office confirmed it is reviewing the MAC's findings. A spokesperson said, 'The home secretary commissioned the independent migration advisory committee to undertake a review. We are now considering its findings and will respond in due course.'

iPhone 17 series display and performance upgrade tipped: Here's what to expect
The Apple iPhone 17 series launch is just a few months away, creating curiosity about what the new generation model will look like. As we wait to get a glimpse at the new iPhones, rumours surrounding the smartphone have started to circulate rapidly, showcasing the design, feature upgrades, camera, and other crucial features. In a new leak, the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air are tipped to offer higher refresh rates. However, there is a catch. Well, reportedly, the standard iPhone 17 models may not feature the ProMotion technology as earlier expected. Additionally, the leak also gave us a glimpse of a performance upgrade by revealing the chipset. Therefore, if you have been planning to buy the iPhone 17 series, here's everything you need to know about what's coming. Also read: iPhone 18 Pro likely to ditch Dynamic Island for under-display Face ID- Details For the past few months, we have been hearing about the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air display upgrade with a 120Hz refresh rate. This upgrade was previously speculated due to the inclusion of ProMotion technology, but this may not be the case. While the base models are slated to get an upgraded display refresh rate, they may not support ProMotion displays. This display technology offers iPhone Pro models with an LTPO screen, offering a refresh rate of 120Hz to 1Hz. While standard iPhone 17 models may not come with ProMotion display, but they are slated to come with a 90Hz display. This will eventually make the smartphones run faster in comparison to standard iPhone 16 models. Therefore, we can speculate that the ProMotion display is still reserved for the iPhone 17 Pro models. Also read: iPhone 17 Air likely to come with optional accessories for lasting battery life- Details Alongside the display, the iPhone 17 series is also slated for a major performance upgrade. In a new leak, the Geekbench 6 performance scores of the A19 Pro chip were tipped. The scores showcased a better performance than the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra with the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. Reportedly, the A19 Pro achieved more than 4000 points in Single core and more than 10000 points in Multicore, which is quite impressive. Furthermore, the smartphones are also expected to get 12 GB of RAM, a desired upgrade from 8GB of RAM, even for the Pro models. Therefore, this year's iPhone model could really come with worthy upgrades that may sway buyers to upgrade.

iOS 26 Brings Exclusive AI-Powered Features to iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Series
Apple's iOS 26 is finally here, bringing a sleek new design and several powerful features. But not all users will get to enjoy the full experience. While every supported iPhone benefits from the new Liquid Glass interface, the most advanced tools are limited to Apple's newer devices—specifically the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 16 lineup, and the upcoming iPhone 17 series. These premium features rely on Apple Intelligence, the tech giant's AI platform that demands advanced processing capabilities found only in the latest hardware. Here are eight standout iOS 26 features that are exclusive to these models: 1. AI-Powered Order Tracking in Wallet The Wallet app now intelligently pulls order information from your emails—even if the merchant doesn't support tracking. Apple Intelligence automatically scans your messages, updating your Wallet with order details for a smoother, smarter experience. 2. Smarter Reminders with AI Suggestions The Reminders app has evolved. It can now suggest tasks by reading through your messages and emails, and even auto-organize lists into sections without needing user input. These time-saving features are exclusive to devices that support Apple Intelligence. 3. Enhanced Genmoji and Creative Image Playground Customization gets a major boost. You can blend two emojis or create detailed Genmoji based on descriptions—including outfits, hairstyles, and moods. The Image Playground also introduces new styles like anime, oil painting, and vector art, all powered by on-device AI. 4. Advanced Messaging Tools with AI Support iOS 26 introduces new Polls and Backgrounds in Messages. While polls are universal, only newer iPhones offer AI-generated poll suggestions. Similarly, custom AI-generated backgrounds are exclusive to supported models. 5. Visual Intelligence Beyond the Camera Previously introduced on the iPhone 16, Visual Intelligence now extends its capabilities to your screenshots. Whether it's a product image or event detail, your device can offer suggestions like shopping links or calendar reminders—another perk limited to Apple's newest iPhones. 6. AI Shortcuts for Faster Actions The Shortcuts app in iOS 26 now integrates AI to generate images, summarize content, and offer intelligent responses. However, these actions require Apple Intelligence, available only on iPhone 15 Pro and newer devices. 7. Live Translation Across Calls and Chats Breaking language barriers in real time, Live Translation now works during calls, video chats, and text conversations. Whether via captions or spoken translations, this feature ensures seamless global communication—but only for the latest iPhones. "In Messages, Live Translation can automatically translate messages. If a user is making plans with new friends while traveling abroad, their message can be translated as they type, delivered in the recipient's preferred language, and when they get a response, each message can be instantly translated. On FaceTime calls, a user can follow along with translated live captions while still hearing the speaker's voice. And when on a phone call, the translation is spoken aloud throughout the conversation," Apple said. These features reflect Apple's clear shift toward a smarter, AI-driven mobile experience—one that's increasingly dependent on cutting-edge hardware. For users of older iPhones, it might be time to consider an upgrade to take full advantage of what iOS 26 has to offer.
