UK Visas and British Citizenship

European / EEA citizens:  at the moment there are no changes in the rules, so EU citizens have the same rights as before the Brexit vote.   If you have been living in the UK since before 29 March 2017 (when Article 50 was triggered),  you are likely to retain your residency rights and eventually apply for British Citizenship.  If you relocated to the UK after 29 March 2017:  there is no confirmed agreement yet with the European Union, but it is expected that your rights will remain the same as now as the UK remains a full member of the EU. If you are planning to come to the UK after Brexit  has come in force on a yet unknown “cut-off date”, you would have to adhere to the new – also unknown – immigration regime. If you have resided in the UK for 5 years or more, we advise to make a formal application for Permanent Residency, followed by British Citizenship -  as soon as possible .   It is not compulsory, yet once you have become a British Citizen, your rights will be prot

How many people?  2 visa applicants can form a team and share the funds, usually GBP 200 000. Both will be "main" applicants. What about family members? Each main applicant can include their respective families as dependants. When is it useful? When you have to combine the funds available to you with someone else's to make the total amount. For example, with a friend or a business partner. Not to be confused with the "Third Party" funds' provider, who is not applying for a visa. Also, this can be used by family members teaming up when they cannot be included as dependants. For example, a real case from our practice: a brother and a sister applying as a team and sharing GBP 200 000, then each including their families as dependants. Same can be done by a parent and an adult child. Do the team members need to equally contribute to GBP 200 000? No, but both need access to it. This is a very technical subject, and one that leads to many visa re

A  Business plan is a compulsory requirement for initial Entrepreneur visa applications.   Over the past several years we’ve been dealing with the Entrepreneur visa applications for our clients. As a part of each application, we have to read client’s business plan, ask to make changes and generally, to include the information relevant to the Entrepreneur visa rules as well as based on the questions a client may be asked at an interview (from our experience of clients’ visa interviews). Our experience allowed us to develop an approach to creating the business plans from a Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa point of view. Instead of using standard templates, we focus on what the visa officers want to see, i.e. on what a migrant will be required to do while holding this visa: investment of £50,000 or £200,000 and what your client is going to spend it on. For example, paying yourself a salary is not counted, yet it is very common for clients to do this.    Another example will be including a plan o
