Initial consultation and eligibility assessment
|
 |
This preliminary step involves the collection of information and analysing the facts of your specific case to determine whether you, as a sponsor, and your foreign fiancee, as an applicant, meet the basic eligibility requirements to qualify for a UK prospective marriage (fiancee) visa. Our immigration consultants will make a determination on your eligibility within 24 hours of initial contact. All initial consultations with our immigration specialists are provided at no cost to you.
|
Retaining our services
|
 |
If we determine that your fiancee is eligible to apply for a visa, we will send you further information explaining how to engage our services. You will receive our start-up material, along with information about our fees and acceptable methods of payment. We will not agree to represent you or ask you to pay a fee unless we are confident that you and your fiancee meet the basic requirements to qualify for a visa.
|
Receiving detailed instructions from us
|
 |
Immediately after you hire our firm, we will send you our instructions via e-mail or by express mail, if you do not have Internet access. Included in these instructions will be an outline of the documents required for the visa application process, and your login name and password to access our online case management system, which is designed to keep you updated on the current status of your case around the clock, regardless of your location or time zone. At this point, we will contact your fiancee to inform her of any information or documentation that may be required from her. If necessary, we will call your fiancee and answer her questions in English, Spanish, Chinese, Thai, Tagalog, or Russian.
|
Document gathering
|
 |
You and your fiancee will need to gather all the required documents and send them to us for processing. In the interest of expediting the submission of your application, you can send us your paperwork by fax or via e-mail, or to upload your documents using our online case management system. This reflects our “we do not waste a day” policy.
|
Form preparation
|
 |
Once we have received all of your documents, we will prepare your visa application forms in accordance with the highest professional standards. All applications are prepared by our senior immigration consultants on the same day we receive the requested paperwork.
|
Signing the forms
|
 |
To reduce waiting times, we will e-mail your visa application forms to you and your fiancee, or you may download them from our online case management system. If you do not have Internet access, we will deliver your application forms to you by express mail. We use DHL, UPS, or TNT courier services.
|
Submission
|
 |
In some instances, a fiancee visa application may be filed in person. The filing procedures for application vary, depending on the Consulate and the country in which the applicant resides. Unless we schedule an appointment for your fiancee to submit her application in person, we will submit your case to the appropriate British Embassy, Consulate or High Commission on the same day we receive the signed application forms. We will make every possible effort to ensure that your application forms and any supporting documentation are complete, accurate and easy to review, encouraging the Embassy official to approve your application as quickly as possible.
|
Continued monitoring and correspondence with
British Embassy
|
 |
Once submitted, we will provide you with regular updates about the status of your case. This includes informing you when the Embassy confirms receipt of your case, advising you of any requests for you or your fiancee to appear for an initial interview, and providing any other information that is relevant to your application. We will personally handle all telephone, e-mail, fax and mail correspondence with the British Embassy on your behalf.
|
Full pre-interview preparation
|
 |
The interview is the most crucial part of the settlement visa process. Our immigration consultants will ensure your spouse or fiancee is fully prepared for this important event. This includes ensuring your loved one brings all the required supporting documents to the interview, and that she or he is relaxed and mentally prepared for what the interview entails. By arranging to speak with your loved one over the phone, or meeting in person a few days prior to the interview, we will make certain she or he is as relaxed and confident as possible.
|
Visa interview
|
 |
We will inform you when and where your fiancee’s interview will take place. On the day of the interview, your case representative will be available via mobile phone outside of normal business hours to answer any last minute questions.
|
Visa approval
|
 |
We will inform you as soon as we receive an electronic confirmation of your visa approval (click here to see a sample approval notice).
|
Post fiancee visa service
|
 |
After the marriage, your husband or wife will need to apply for further leave to remain, commonly known as a spousal or marriage visa, to stay in the UK. We have successfully handled a tremendous number of spousal visa cases, and are proud to say that most of our former clients choose us as their exclusive representative for the post fiancee visa process.
