APPLYING TO LIVE PERMANENTLY IN THE UK AS A PARTNER (INDEFINITE LEAVE TO REMAIN)

Mark Lilley-Tams

Director / Solicitor

"In 2012, the Home Office introduced a minimum income requirement for partner visas. In order to meet this requirement, applicants are required to provide documents in the precise format as specified by the Home Office or risk refusal.

Since the changes were brought into force, there has been a noticeable increase in the refusal of these applications. This can be very stressful for the couple involved as it means further costs being incurred in having to appeal the refusal and lengthy delays in the appeal taking place at the Tribunal.

The legal team at OTB Legal have significant experience of getting successful outcomes for applications for indefinite leave to remain for partners. Why not talk to us about your application?"

This is a letter of genuine thanks to Mark who assisted me in a desperate situation where I had been given 10 days to leave the UK.

Mark immediately set to work and identified the problem in my failed Set (M) settlement Visa application. His knowledge of the application was so in depth that in 2 hours he had redone my application, corrected the mistake, and sent off my application.

1 week later I recieved my answer from home Office and my application was a success. I furthermore informed mark that I wanted to lodge a complaint against Home Office and Mark advised me on mistakes that Home Office may have made in the structure of the application and the complaint procedures that my complaint should follow to have the best chance at winning my complaint and possibly a refund.

Due to Mark's dilligence and personal attention he gave my application I have since recommended my stepson to Mark and he will be processing my stepsons wife in her application for a spousal Visa to the UK.

And he has the fastest fingers on a keyboard in the west.

Thanks once again to Mark and the team. Much appreciated.
