Immigration advice session by email, book in February to save money!

Our advice session is often the 1 st step in the immigration process and is useful to assess your eligibility or to advise on the visa requirements. We have 2 options of offering a consultation: over email and at our office in the City of London.   At the moment you can save the money on having an email advice while the current advice fee is still £70 and is cheaper than a face-to-face appointment, which costs £100. From 1 March 2015 our email advice fee will be brought in line with the office appointment fee of £100.   Whether you are approaching your visa expiry date or not, it is never too early to have a consultation. You don’t have to be eligible to apply for a visa now, however, by having an advice session in February 2015 not only can you save the money, you can also benefit from knowing early on what to expect in the future. Many applicants find they should have started preparation in advance, such as keeping or ordering the bank statements. Self-employed people often

New successful case and testimonial on EEA Residence Card as an Unmarried Partner of an EEA citizen.

"I wanted to say big thank you for help with our case, your service was smooth and professional, even though we were short of time and documents. Our questions were always answered and we were informed of everything that was happening, great communication. Pleasure to deal with you.” This came from Gabriela, a Polish citizen who asked us to help with a visa application for her South African partner. Gabriela’s partner spent 5 years in the UK on an Ancestral Dependant visa, based on the marriage to a pervious partner. Gabriela spent several years in the UK too, so for the past 2.5 years the couple did live together in the UK. We advised to apply for a Residence Card as an Unmarried Partner because both Gabriela and the applicant were still married to their respective spouses at the point of application, yet Gabriela’s partner’s visa was expiring very soon, so they had to act fast!

New successful case and testimonial on British Citizenship application for an Australian citizen.

"1 st 4Immigration understand what good quality client service is all about. My application to become a British citizen became a step closer today when I received my invitation to attend the Citizenship Ceremony. My application was a complex one which required me to go back as far as 1986 for records before electronic data existed! Joanne Wilson guided me through the process; her knowledge of the application process was invaluable as she knew how, where and who to contact for documents dating back so far. She also diligently recorded 5 years worth of travel ….given that I travel sometimes as many as once or twice a week this was a testament to her perseverance, having eye for detail and recording it accurately. She was extremely responsive and diligent in all that she carried out and I would not hesitate to recommend anyone to her who will be going through the same process. As I said, she exemplifies excellent client service! Many thanks Joanne.” This came from Sally , citiz
