New testimonial on fast UK passport renewal service for a British citizen residing in the USA

By 1st 4Immigration - #1 UK Immigration Experts -

"An unexpected business trip needed to happen with 2 weeks notice, the UK passport processing time for overseas passports was roughly 8 weeks, the prospect of making the trip seemed bleak. I contacted the local consulate to make an appointment for Emergency Travel Documents, I was pointed to the appropriate website to book an appointment, the earliest available time was in 29 days, this seemed to contradict the meaning of 'Emergency' as I had known its meaning to be. I made two queries to Multi Travel Visas, the replies were precise and helpful and a few days later they received my application form for a passport renewal. The passport photos I supplied which I was assured by the establishment where they were taken were well within all the requirements turned out not to be. 

Harpreet contacted me swiftly and asked me to supply him with new photos and supplied a better photo requirement guide, and astonishingly said that I could email him the photos and they would have them printed out (which meant I wouldn't have to wait up to 3 days for them to arrive via mail). With my urgent need of a passport this was very helpful. I sent in my application on Friday and it was on its way back to me by Tuesday, would have been sooner if there was not as much of a time difference on my end, as my day started, theirs had already ended.
Personally I would like to thank Harpreet and Sebastian as between them both they have managed to get my passport back into my hands in time, which is a lot more than what can be said for these consulates all over the United States that are in place to assist British Nationals abroad. Bypass the bureaucracy and get the process done right and in a time frame that is better suited to people living in the real world."

This came from Alan, a British expat who resides in California in the United States.

Updated May 2020: UK visa work continues - latest update

By -
UK immigration authorities continue to process visa applications, albeit not as fast as they normally would. The visa centres are beginning to gradually re-opening from 1 June 2020 in the UK and abroad. Regardless of when your particular centre re-opens, it is still possible to submit your application online. If your visa expires soon, you can apply for your next visa "on-time", i.e. before your current visa expires, by making such an application online and then waiting for the further steps. This keeps you within the Rules and does not make you an overstayer.  Even better, the actual documents (supporting evidence) can be submitted later, thus giving you even more time to prepare while remaining within the Rule on visa expiry dates. We usually have 45 days to provide the documents (ie upload them online to the Government portal) after the online "submission" mentioned above. This is extended for as long as it will take to clear up the backlog.  If you

How long can a visitor stay in the UK? 6 months from each entry? In a year? In a calendar year?

By 1st 4Immigration - #1 UK Immigration Experts -
Visitors can come to the UK for purposes of tourism, visiting friends, business visits and similar. Visitors can stay for maximum 6 months in each 12 months . Not 6 months from each entry to the UK. Even if your visitor visa is for 5 or 10 years you can still stay for maximum 180 days in each of those years. How to count ‘6 months in 12 months’? A 12 months period starts from ‘now’, date in question or date of entry etc and you need to count backwards (not a calendar year). If you stayed in the UK for the whole 6 months then you have to stay away for the whole 6 months. If you come and go several times during a year then the total must be 180 days cumulatively in the last 12 months. Visitor rules are the same for all. Visitor visa rules aren’t. Visitor rules include: purpose of visits, no right to work, no right to use the NHS, no right to use the public funds (benefits), no right to switch to more serious visas inside the UK, ie no right to switch to a Spouse

💸 10 common mistakes when meeting the Financial Requirement £18,600 for a UK Spouse visa

By -

#1 Most common - submitting “everything I have’.  Some payslips, a tax return, some savings plus a property deed for good measure. Surely, should work? It may sound logical to provide as much as possible, this is often a nightmare scenario for immigration lawyers and often a direct path to a visa refusal. Financial Requirement is strictly based on the ‘rules’: what income can be used, how various sources can be combined and what documents are needed. We often say there is 75-page office guidance just on the finances: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/636618/Appendix_FM_1_7_Financial_Requirement_Final.pdf  #2 Savings - it’s not £18,600 and not £16,000.  The real amount (for this purpose) is calculated using this formula: threshold you need to meet (such as £18,600) x 2.5 plus £16,000. If you are using savings alone, it would be £18,600 x 2.5 + £16,000 = £62,500!  #3 Employment -  the minimum is 6 months for the sa
