UK Visas and British Citizenship

Multi Travel Visas, a prominent UK visa company in the City of London, can assist with renewing a UK passport using fast service at the Passport Office in London, with the authorisation from you as per the government requirements. We can usually submit passport applications within  2 working days. We can also help if for some reason you are unable to apply yourself. If you don't have time to travel to a Passport Office yourself we can apply on your behalf (you don't have to come to London). If you are living/working abroad you can courier documents to our London office and we can submit them promptly for same-day service. This includes if your passport has run out of pages or if you need to renew not only yours but also/or your child's passport urgently.  Example: British expats living or working in the USA, the Middle East, Asia and Europe.   Passport renewal:  we can renew your adult passport on same-day service or 1 week service, with applications submitted as soon as

Another unqualified immigration advice from the press, this time from The Times:  https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/royal-engagement-meghan-markle-faces-trip-abroad-to-apply-for-visa-052bplp8x On this blog we have been “advising” Meghan and Harry on the UK visa rules, so we couldn’t miss this article and let Meghan make an unnecessary trip abroad (with all that airport hassle during the spring bank holidays!) Meghan CAN switch to a Spouse visa inside the UK after marrying her prince (literally). She can simply apply for a Fiancée visa now from the US or Canada, which allows switching to the Spouse status inside the UK. Can even be on same-day service like the one we use for our clients in Croydon. If Meghan doesn’t take this advice and remains in the UK as a visitor, then yes, she would have to make a trip abroad to secure her Spouse visa, and we don’t envy her buying those expensive flight tickets during the World Cup! We guess Meghan may already have a Fiancée visa, but jus

This is the last post in these popular series, and we will be also posting a summary of all posts later.     FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: How much money do I need, GBP 200 000 or 50 000? The main amount is 200 000 British Pounds. The 50 000 applications are only allowed if you have funds from specified sources. For example, from a UK Government department or UK-regulated venture capital fund. There are strict rules on this. We will be able to advise you in your individual case during advice session. Can I apply in the UK or do I have to apply in my country? You can only apply in the UK if you currently have a UK visa that allows to change your status while on the UK. If you don't, you have to apply from your country. Having said that , we can prepare your application In advance, so you would only need to leave the UK to submit your paperwork abroad and to wait for a decision, thus reducing your time abroad to the minimum possible.  What is meant by "my

Dear customers of 1st 4Immigration and Multi Travel Visas, Our advice session is often the 1 st  step in the UK immigration visa process and is useful to assess your eligibility or to advise on the visa requirements. It applies to all types of applications: initial visa, switching, extension, permanent residency and British Citizenship. We have two options: email and face-to-face at our office in the City of London. Convenient location - or convenience of email advice at home! We provide email consultation by the end of the next working day. Whether you are approaching the end of your current visa expiry 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 professional advice now you can 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 find they have to pr

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

It appears Meghan is spoilt for choice!  Visitor: many so called non-visa nationals , including Americans, can come to the UK for up to 6 months to visit and obtain entry stamp at the airport. This status doesn’t allow working in the UK.  Marriage Visitor: a separate category under Visitors. This visa allows to get married in the UK with the view of leaving after 6 months (and not trying to apply for a settlement visa inside the UK).  This visa is required for all non-EU nationals even Americans  A standard visitor status doesn’t allow to get married in the UK. For example , if Meghan arrives at Heathrow without any visa in her passport and says “I am here to marry Prince Harry”, strictly speaking, she could be denied entry and sent back. Well, the visa offices are probably used to hearing young ladies saying that and just laugh and waive them through. But with Meghan, it is for real! Fiancée visa : this is a much better option for Meghan and we suspect she already has it! It
