attorney cost for tier 1 extension application

Post by szavelin » Sat Apr 21, 2012 2:36 pm

Hello anyone alive on this forum?:)

Can anyone advice on the approximate cost of hiring an attorney to do the paper/footwork for extension of my tier 1 visa?

It's just too much to handle.

thanks

Average 1000. That does not include the actual application fee paid to UKBA.

You can get the same service from an OISC adviser for 750.

Depends on the type of solicitor or OISC adviser starting from 500 to 1500 but if you are employed and your case is straight forward then better do it your self.
