Recent Cases
Case 1
Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) Migrant
Raashid successfully assisted an Australian national whose leave as a Tier 2 (General) Migrant had been curtailed as she ceased working for her employer. We successfully applied for our client to vary her leave to that of a Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) Migrant. She was granted leave to remain for five years in the UK therefore allowing her to pursue her specialist activities in the UK.
Case 2
Indefinite Leave to Remain for Tier 2 and dependant
Mr Hussain assisted an individual who had been residing in the UK as a Tier 2 (General) Migrant. She had procured the five years of residence which is required for indefinite leave to remain however she changed employer without seeking permission from UK Visas and Immigration. This resulted in complications in her application with a prospect of the client and her dependants losing their right to indefinite leave to remain. We were able to overcome the shortcomings in the application and our client and her dependants were granted indefinite leave to remain in the UK.
