Changing from one UK visa type to another is one of the most popular subjects in our immigration work. It is what we call ‘switching', ie changing without leaving the UK.   Normally, the answer lies in the Immigration Rules for the category you are switching into. For example, until December 2020 the work visa rules didn’t allow switching from most categories. Now, however, it is possible to change from almost (but not all) every UK visa under the post-Brexit Points Based Immigration System. Other useful examples:  If you have a Visitor visa, you cannot, normally, switch to a Skilled Worker or a family visa. However, at the moment, it may be possible to do so under Covid-19 concessions, albeit in limited circumstances. You still have to meet the rules, such as having a Sponsor for a work visa, or meeting the Financial Requirement £18,600 for a visa as a spouse/partner of a British citizen, but may be able to secure your status without leaving the UK. The latest Covid-19 p...

  #1 Priority visa services are up and running, and are very popular!  Priority and Super Priority services allow to obtain a visa decision within 5 working days or on the next working day respectively, for an additional Government fee. These are for in-UK applications. Eligible categories are visas for spouses/partners of UK citizens, workers including Skilled Worker and Health and Care Worker visa, Ancestral visa, Long residence 10 years and some business/investment categories. Available when you are switching from another category (Student to Spouse; Student to a Skilled Worker etc), extension in the same category and settlement / Indefinite Leave. More can be found here on the Government website.       #2 Graduate visa started on 1 July 2021. Great for international students, UK employers looking for graduates. And also for … unmarried partners of UK citizens who cannot (yet) prove 'living together for 2 years’. So, graduates from UK universities can now sta...

This is one of our most popular posts of all times: child born in the UK, does he get British Citizenship? This updated post was partly inspired by the Guardian article about 100,000 of undocumented children in London. If you are interested in that subject, of how a child’s status can be legalised, you can read on our blog here .  In this message we are considering more common situations when a child is born in the UK to migrant parents.  Child born in the UK: A child born in the UK is not automatically British since the law was changed in 1983. Instead, their status is based on the parents' status: - If a parent is British, then a child is British by birth.  - If a parent has settled status, such as Indefinite Leave, then a child is British by birth.  - European citizens gain settled status automatically, which may be earlier than the date of Settlement Scheme registration, in this case please contact us.  If, however, a parent is not settled but settles later...

Graduate visa has finally opened on 1 July 2021! Those of us working in immigration law for a long time still call it by its predecessor, Post-Study Work visa. International students, who are in the UK on a Tier 4 or Student visa, can remain for 2 years after completing their course (3 years for PhD graduates).  The highlights: #1 Graduate visa allows to work in the UK in almost any job. No need for sponsorship (no job offer is needed), no minimum salary, no limit on places etc.  #2 You can apply once your university has confirmed a successful completion of your course. You cannot apply before that (such as while waiting for the results) but don’t have to wait for the formal graduation either. Qualifying courses are Bachelor, Master, PhD but also some professional courses, please contact us for details.   #3 You can only apply inside the UK, i.e. switch from a Student visa.  #4 Digital application process with an eVisa. The immigration process has been moving on...
