COVID-19 (Coronavirus)

Our operations are unaffected by the current pandemic and we remain committed to delivering a high level of service which looks after all our clients.

Our team continue to advise international clients on visa applications.

How might this affect me?

It is understandable that the global disruption may be a concern for anyone currently making immigration plans. We have tried to address these concerns and explain why a sensible approach may indeed be to advance your preparations.

The first consideration is that the visa process can take a few months under normal circumstances. It looks likely that travel bans will be lifted and normality will be largely resumed within such a time frame.

Secondly, the Pound Sterling is now approaching parity with the US Dollar and the Euro. This unprecedented exchange rate is extremely favourable for some overseas investors.

Thirdly, the UK’s medical capabilities and expertise are recognised as being among the best in the world, particularly in the field of virology. This, in conjunction with the significant Government stimulus packages, has led economists to forecast a significantly faster economic recovery compared to previous recessions.

Finally, there may be a significant advantage in preparing your application now rather than waiting for "things to get back to normal". Postponing risks further long delays as there will be a pent up demand once the emergency ends and there is likely to be a backlog of cases causing undue delays which you may be able to avoid.

We are happy to discuss the best options for you, please get in touch for an initial conversation about how our experts can help you.
