A: Send us an e-mail outlining your circumstances and what exactly you want to do in the UK. We can then arrange an online meeting via Teams or WhatsApp and we will set out your options. Payment for this consultation will be required before it takes place. If you decide to proceed with an application for entry clearance the fee for initial consultation will be included in the application fee. Payment of the fee will be required in advance.
A: Yes, this is a complicated process. You can send someone from your company to be your 'sole representative' in the UK. They can set up a branch and once this is opened, we can help you obtain a licence from UKVI. This will enable you to transfer some of your long term, skilled employee(s) to the UK. The rules are very strict and advice is essential. The process is slow and you will be advised to contact us as early as possible. All work will be carried out on a fixed fee basis.
A: Get in touch with us and in a short telephone conversation we can establish whether you can employ a foreign worker. If you need to apply for a licence with UKVI we can help you with that. We can also be nominated as someone who can deal with your case management system with UKVI once your licence is granted. It is very important that employers comply with the law. Any employer employing someone who has no right to work in the UK will be fined.
A: Yes, you would nominate us as a level 1 user on your case management system with UKVI. This would enable us to have full access to your case management system and with your instructions we can carry out work in relation to existing or new employees.
A: Yes, get in touch with us by telephone or email and we will arrange an appointment. Work will be carried out on a fixed fee basis and you will be kept informed of what is happening with your application.
A: Contact us via e-mail and attach your refusal letter. We will let you know if there is a chance of overturning the original decision. In the last year our success rate at appeal has been over 90% because we will not take a case on if there is no real chance of success. Work will be carried out on a fixed fee basis so you will know exactly how much you will be charged for the whole appeal. You will be actively involved with the appeal and you will be kept informed at each stage.
A: Phone or e-mail us, we will give you a quote (fixed fee) for the appeal. You can decide if it is cost effective to instruct us to travel outside Scotland to represent you at your hearing.
