UK Visas and British Citizenship

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

Unmarried Partner Visa is one of the most popular enquiries in our practice. Yet the number of enquiries that we advise to progress to an application is fairly low - but that number is successful in securing a visa with our assistance. The remaining clients are advised to get married and apply for either a Spouse or a Fiancée visa,   here is the page about comparison between them.  Generally, with all applicants out there, this category does have a high number of refused (unsuccessful) visa applications because of the above reason - you have to qualify precisely for this category in order to be successful. Why so? Unmarried Partner visa is not a substitute for a Spouse or a Fiancé(e) visa. It has 2 criteria on the relationship: Firstly, it is a visa for those who have lived together in a relationship akin to marriage for at least 2 years. Not dated, not visited each other, but actually lived together for minimum of 2 years. We often see couples who have lived together for, say, one

This time we borrowed this headline from the UK Visas and Immigration:  https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/apply-for-a-permanent-residence-document-or-permanent-residence-card-form-eea-pr/top-reasons-permanent-residence-applications-are-rejected-or-refused We thought it would make a good post for European / EEA citizens and their family members.The page offers a list of reasons, although they are quite generic, such as no signature on the form or no correct fee paid. So, we thought we would expand on the subject and add most common non-admin reasons, ie most common eligibility-related reasons. In descending order: #5 Students being unaware of the health insurance requirement,  which was – unfairly and unusually – applied retrospectively. This rule was added in June 2011, yet it refers to those studying even before that. #4 Believing (wrongly) that this application is based on the last 5 years , ie 5 years immediately prior to the date of application. It would

Dear friends! Whether your current UK visa expires soon or in a year’s time, it is never too early to plan your next visa! Often you may have to wait for the last month of your current visa to submit a new application to the UK authorities but the key is in preparation and therefore, we could start working on your case in advance. This ensures you are ready as soon as it’s the time to apply and without the last-minute surprises. This is especially relevant if your circumstances have changed during the time spent on your current visa! At 1st 4Immigration we will guide you throughout the application process, beginning from now and ending with the decision on your next visa. This includes any queries you may have during the process so you would have someone to turn to. It is also a good time to book our advice session! If you would like confirmation of the requirements first, we continue to offer advice service, either at our office face-to-face with our experienced OISC-accredited imm
