Family Relationship Applications

There are many different rules governing the ability of foreign national individuals to enter the UK to join their family members and what they can do once they arrive. We have a vast amount of experience in dealing with the applications of family members of British citizens and individuals with leave under the points based system.

Submitting an application for a family member to join you in the UK can be an incredibly stressful experience but we are able to guide you through every stage of the process, from advising on the options available to individuals based on their and their family’s circumstances to preparing and submitting the application and advising on the conditions of leave. In all circumstances we look at the whole picture to decide on the best option, both in terms of the initial application for leave to enter and ensuring families can legally remain together in the UK.
