Thanks a lot for the prompt response. Would you be able to give an estimate of the time it takes for option 1 and 3? Also the cost if you could please. Really appreciate it. We would be able to do option 3 in the US as it is easier to obtain marriage licence in the US, we are just wondering which w...
Hi All, When our SWV applications were filed, the company's immigration law firm filed our application paperwork. In the paperwork, our personal email address was not provided, rather a generic email address for the law firm was provided. Based on this, I am curious how will UKVI contact me and my ...

Good character requirement requires waiting 10 years since the overstaying ended (possibly when your acquaintance left the UK). Thank you, according to him, prior SET (M) application requested SAR and no period of ov...

All you need to know about the sponsor letter for Skilled Worker route Thanks Zimba, I have read that post religiously and it cleared many of my questions.

Thank you for your reply . Unfortunately all extended visas were valid until feb 24 and that’s when they submitted their ILR. Do they have any grounds to appeal? Or to reapply? Such unfortunate situation, appealing will be waste of resources and time as the decision is correct. That travel cost him...
