## FAQ
**Do I need to invest a fixed amount?**
No. The old £50,000 requirement was removed in 2023. The endorsing body judges whether your funding is enough for the plan.

**Who are the endorsing bodies?**
A small list on gov.uk, each charging its own fee and running its own assessment. The Lifeset Overseas guide lists them with current fees.

**Can my family come?**
Yes. Partner and children can apply as dependants, each paying the fee and the surcharge.
