What is British Citizenship all about?

If you are interested in living in the UK permanently, you will need to receive British Citizenship from the home office. This means that you will need to pay certain fees in order to receive a visa. As you can see from our video, there are many different types of visas that you can choose from. Make sure to read up on them in order to understand which would best you and your situation. For instance, if you are planning on studying in the UK, you may want to go after a student visa. Some examples of some visas may include:

  • Work visas
  • Business visas
  • Spouse visas
  • Asylum
  • Transit Visas

Choosing the type of visa you intend to apply for is important. However, it’s also important to consider British citizenship as a whole. By becoming a British citizen, you are going to be able to live and work within the UK without having to worry about immigration controls. If you want to receive your British citizenship, you are going to have to go through a process called “Naturalisation”. You can start this process once you have received your indefinite leave to remain. Your solicitor can guide you through this process and make sure you get the support needed to get you through this lengthy process. We understand that it can be expensive to achieve British citizenship. That’s why Gowing Law’s helpful team of immigration specialists will be here to support you throughout the entire process.

Naturalization & British Citizenship: How do I know I can obtain it?

If you are ready to apply for British Citizenship, it’s important to remember that the complexity of the process will depend on your own personal circumstances. However, the current pandemic as well as Brexit may also have an effect on your citizenship. For instance, it may end up causing delays due to social-distancing and safety measures now being put in place. With that said, your lawyer will be there to provide you personalized advice so you know exactly what to expect. So don’t worry!

There are many different ways that you could eligible to become a British citizen. One of the ways we can help you achieve your citizen status is through naturalisation. You must have lived in the UK for around 5 years (as well as have indefinite leave to remain) or have had permanent resident status for at least 12 months before you made your application.

Here are the criteria that you will need to fulfil during the naturalization process:

British Citizenship Eligibility

What other ways are there to achieve British Citizenship?

It’s important to remember that there other ways that you could achieve British citizenship, outside of naturalization process listed above. Instead, you could achieve a settled status if your partner/spouse has lived in the UK for more than 3 years. However, to do this you will need to have indefinite leave to remain, a settled status within the EU scheme or have a permanent residence document. This is only one of the ways that you could become a resident of the UK. Take a look at our infographic below to get a better idea of how you could achieve British citizenship:

British Citizenship Infographic

There may be other ways that you could be eligible for British Citizenship. Keep in mind that if you want your children to apply to be citizens, they must be registered. If the registration is successful then your children will be able to enter the UK without having to deal with any immigration controls. Your solicitor can give you further advice on this if you encounter any difficulties. Feel free to ask them questions about the process.

Biometric Information

Will I need to pay for British citizenship?

Unfortunately, if you do want to apply for British citizenship, you will need to pay fees. We understand that this can be stressful and may even make you feel overwhelmed. If your application is refused, you will get your fees returned to you. For a general estimate for how much you may pay, it could cost you around £1,330 to undergo the naturalization process. However, this may be subject to your own personal situation and where you are currently situated. It may also depend on why you want to settle in the UK.

This is why we would highly recommend that you speak to an immigration solicitor if you are interested in living in the UK. They can guide you through this lengthy process and ensure that you get the best advice possible. That way you can understand how you can get started and what obstacles you may need to face in the process.

World Day of Social Justice: Human Right Visas

World Day of Social Justice is a day where we consider some of the biggest issues that require solutions and support to be made right. This includes the inequalities between genders, races and those with and without disabilities. For us, we have always sought to get our clients the justice that they deserve. Whether this is from a work accident as a result of a negligent employer or a business interruption insurance claim from an insurer that is refusing your claim during the pandemic, we will always be there to ensure that you get a proper pay-out. We believe in equality. That’s why we want to make sure that all of our clients are able to speak out about the issues they are facing.

When we think about World Day of Social Justice, one the biggest topics that comes up for our solicitors is in relation to our immigration department. We have helped many families around the UK achieve the right to remain in the country. This is through the Human Rights Act!

The Basics of Visas

As everyone knows, now that the pandemic has caused a nationwide lockdown, there are procedures in place in order to stem immigration as a way to decrease the spread of the virus. This includes staying in a quarantine hotel if you come into the country. Keep in mind that Covid-19 could cause delays with your claim. If you believe that you are experiencing any discrimination with your Visa application, it’s important that you let your solicitor know as soon as possible so they can help you fight your case.

With that said, let’s have a little bit of a chat about different Visas before we jump into social justice. If you want to live in the UK, there are many different Visas to choose from. You will need to pick a Visa in order to travel to different countries (outside of your home country) and become a resident. Take a look at the infographic below to get an idea of the type of Visa that would best suit your own situation:

UK visas infographic

If you believe that you would benefit most in a different Visa, it’s important that you speak to your solicitor. For instance, if you believe that you could actually be eligible for a human rights visa, you could appeal to be allowed to stay in the UK if you believe that your human rights will be breached. It could be unlawful for you to be forced out of the country, therefore you need to have the right law firm protecting you and your rights. This will be social justice at its best.

Social Justice, Human Right Visas and Deportation

Now that we have discussed the basics of Visas, it’s important we talk about unlawful deportation from the UK as it is World Day of Social Justice. According to the Human Rights Act of 1998, if the Home Office acts inconsistently with the European Convention on Human Rights, this could act as a means for it to be condemned as unlawful.

No matter who you are, you will be eligible for this protection if you are living in the UK. It also applies if you are currently under the authority of the UK’s immigration authorities. You can enact Article 8 from the European Convention if it is suspected that you have come to the UK illegally or if you have over-stayed your Visa. Under paragraph 276 ADE of the EU’s Immigration Rules, your human rights will need to be considered in relation to a compassionate or exceptional circumstance.

There are some additional criteria that you will need to fulfil if you are going to make a Discretionary Leave Application:

Human Rights Application Gif

Another way you could be eligible to make a discretionary leave application is through your family life. Everyone has the right to a public and private family. You are allowed to make an application against deportation on the grounds of a compassionate and compelling argument. You will also need to be able to gain a passing mark against a points-based system.

What is the points-based system?

There is one thing that you do need to understand if you are going to make any sort of Visa application. That iss the points-based system. This system separates migrants into different categories, such as work, investments or training. Each category will have different requirements to be fulfilled in order to have a successful application:

  • Age
  • English Language
  • Qualifications
  • Earnings
  • Experience of the UK
  • Sponsorship Certificate

Make sure to speak carefully to your solicitor about which tier you will be in. They will carefully direct you and help you figure out what qualifications you need. If you are worried that you may lack certain skills (i.e. a strong grasp of the English language), our lawyers can direct you towards specialists that can help you improve. Feel free to speak to them about any help that you will need. Our lawyers will be here to support you throughout your claim.

points based system help

What can I do if I am destitute and cannot afford a Visa?

One of the things you need to consider when you are going to claim a Visa is how you are going to pay for it. We like to think that everyone is born with the same opportunities as other people, sadly socio-economic status says otherwise. In some cases, you may struggle to afford a Visa. If you have been left destitute and cannot afford the fees that come along with the Visa, you could be eligible for a “fee waiver.” You solicitor can help you make an application. This can be sent to the Home Office to get your fee waiver sorted. However, you will need to provide evidence that you cannot pay. The questions you may be asked include:

  • Can you meet your essential needs?
  • Do you have accommodation in the UK?
  • Are you able to pay for the fee right now?
  • Could you pay for the fee/ have a change in financial circumstance in the next 12 months?
  • Will you be able to borrow the fees from your family or close friends?

You will also be asked to provide evidence about this type of claim. Here are some examples of the evidence that you can use to prove your case:

World Day of Social Justice: Illegal Deportation and Human Rights

Deportation is known as the forced expulsion of an individual from one country to their original country of birth. Although in some cases, it may seem logical, it’s important that we consider any political and socio-economic statuses that could affect a person’s right to stay. In some cases, discrimination may actually play a part in the outcome of a visa application. Over the last year, it has been estimated that 3,900 people have actually been detained. Quite a number of them have come from the EU. This has grown since 2010 where only 973 EU citizens were detained. Unfortunately, there is actually very little legal support for people who have been unfairly detained. Issues that can arise include:

  • How long a person can be detained for
  • What circumstances can be used as a cause of detainment
  • When a detainment may see a judge about their case

As a specialist law firm, we endeavor to provide all of our clients with as much support as possible. However, we do understand that the injustice of detained immigrants is a huge cause for concern. No one wants to see another Windrush Scandal. Already, it has become clear that new problems have emerged with the treatment of EU citizens and their right to remain. Thousands of people who have lived here for generations are now at risk. This is why it is more essential than ever for legal experts to support those in need during this difficult transition, especially those who are being discriminated against and have very little access to legal assistance.

Detention and Discrimination

Racism in the Criminal Justice System

Right now, it’s important that we look at the injustice that many citizens in the UK have suffered from, and bring any hidden discrimination to the surface. The very fact that many migrants suffer from these “policies” illegally shows a hidden systemic racism that needs to be addressed. A lot of detainees describe the process of being detained as being stuck in ”limbo”. This feeling is often endless and can leave severe emotional trauma on the victim.

It’s important that we refrain from labelling anyone as “good” and “bad”, because honestly it depends on the individual’s circumstances. However, we should also use this as an opportunity to explore the human impact of these issues. By classifying someone as “bad”, it ignites fear. That means it presents them as a type of “alien” figure that can turn people against them. In any sort of immigration case, it is important to view it with an open mind. It is sad that as we are currently in a pandemic, there are still deportations that are still going ahead despite the fact that there is a travel ban.

Here at Gowing Law, we will always do our best to put the needs of our clients first. If they are vulnerable and need legal help, we will be there to help them. Learn more about how we can assist you with asylum and humanitarian protection by clicking the link below:

What can you do to help your solicitor with a claim?

Quite honestly, the best thing you do to help your solicitor with any type of claim is to provide them with evidence. We understand any type of immigration Visa request or deportation order can be extremely stressful. But it’s important that you remain as calm as possible. Providing your solicitor with the evidence needed for your claim can put it in safe hands. They can make sure to work with you to ensure you have a strong case. If you believe that you are a victim of discrimination then they can help you get the justice that you deserve. They can also help you with a repeal if you believe that you have been treated unfairly.

It’s important to not speak about the details of your case publically, after all this could be taken badly if you are trying to make a claim. However, we should bring light to World Day of Social Justice! If you feel strongly about human rights, especially in relation to deportation and racial equality, talk to your friends, family and whoever will listen. The more you bring light to a topic, the more likely that people will take notice of the problems that tend to be hidden.

Which UK Visa do you need for the United Kingdom?

“What UK visa do I need?” is a common question from clients who are looking to make the next step with their immigration status. When you are on the outside of this sort of situation, you may be thinking that it’s easy to get a visa. You simply fill out a form, send the UK Government some documentation and suddenly you have an approved visa UK citizens can’t refuse! If only it was that easy. Right now, the UK is relaxing their immigration laws due to the outbreak of Covid-19, however this won’t be forever. That’s why if your visa is set to expire or you need to simply renew it, it’s time for you to consider your options.

With the help of Gowing Law Solicitors, we can assist you in picking the perfect visa for you. That way you can settle in the UK permanently and, eventually, obtain British citizenship.

The Basics: How to claim your Visa

Before we dive into the types of visas available to you, let’s start off with how the UK visa system actually works. Now that Brexit has been practically signed and sealed, it is crucial that you obtain your citizenship before January 2021. This is when Britain will fully pull away from EU law and start to regulate itself, most likely discarding the majority of rules that were originally put into place.

So, what do you need to know about the Visa system to get started? Well, recently the UK has been talking about potentially moving away from the EU’s free movement as an attempt to lower immigration levels. Instead, it is considering to adopt a point system to calculate whether or not an immigration has the correct criteria to gain indefinite leave to remain. Take a look at this quick video to help you understand the basics of the point system:

Now, if we are going to be honest about the UK’s point system, it is basically a way of ensuring the people coming to the country are well-educated and have high-paying jobs. You can gain points for the following:

  • Educational Qualifications
  • Future Earnings (aka. High job salary, over £25,600)
  • Sponsorship (from a company, university or work body)
  • Full grasp of the English language
  • Self-sufficient Funds

Gowing Law Solicitors can help you figure out how many points you can accumulate in order to get your UK Visa. Remember to keep an eye on the points system debate to see how it develops in the future. The BBC is a great place to start.

You may also want to check out our recent blog on the basics of the right to remain. This will teach you your immigration rights and how Gowing Law Solicitors can help you move forward.

Entitled Services

Once you have proved your “settled status” or “pre-settled status”, then you will have the right to the following services:

  • Being able to stay in the UK for more than 3 months
  • The Ability to work in the UK
  • Studying in the UK
  • Using the NHS
  • Claiming a State Pension
  • Being able to rent a home in the UK

Do you even need a Visa in the UK?

A quick point to make before we move onto the different types of Visas is about your own eligibility. In some circumstances you may not even need a Visa to take up a residence in the UK. This will depend on your nationality. For instance, you will not have to apply for a UK visa for a trip to England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland if you are:

  • A Commonwealth Citizen
  • An EEA Citizen
  • A Swiss Citizen

You may also be eligible for travel without a Visa if you already get a UK pension. As you can see there are many different ways that you can visit the UK. Just make sure to check the government’s website to check whether you may be exempt from a Visa.

Your Visa Choices

If you are interested in coming to the UK, you will have a range of visas to choose from. Take a look at some of these examples:

Each of these visas contain a specific tier ranking, meaning that you are going to have to achieve a set number of points to be eligible. If you can apply for a certain level then this may mean that you can receive a UK Settlement or even British Citizenship.

Here is what each category means:

1. Level 1 Tier: High-Valued Migrant

Level 1 includes people of exceptional talent in science or arts, entrepreneurs, graduate entrepreneurs, investors and highly-skilled workers.

2. Level 2 Tier: Skilled Workers

Level 2 includes general workers, ministers of religion, sportspeople and intra-company transferred employees.

3. Level 3 Tier: Low-Skilled Workers

This level has been (at present) suspended. Originally it was to allow for low-skilled workers to enter the UK during labour shortages.

4. Level 4 Tier: Adult Students

Level 4 is reserved for adult students over the age of 16. If the person is studying on a National Qualification or a university/college study programme, they will be eligible for this visa.

5. Level 5 Tier: Temporary Workers

Temporary workers may include people travelling into the country for new business ventures. This includes the arts, sporting events, charity events, religious work, government-authorised exchange, youth mobility schemes and International agreements (GAT.)

When you are looking at the different levels available, make sure to pick based on your own skill set and the reason why you want to enter the UK. That way you can feel confident that your green card will be approved.

The Main Visas: What do you need to know about them?

As you saw from our previous chart, you can basically organise the different visas into education, work and family. These are the fastest ways that you can be considered for a settlement status. Whilst all of them entail that you understand English, potentially have a job or income that can keep you sustained, they do each have specific criteria and information that is crucial to remember. Here is what you need to know:

All of the Visas UK authorities can offer you have several things in common. You need to make sure you have the right level of language to apply and that you can support yourself. That way you can be independent and find a place for yourself within the culture of the UK.

If you need any more information on specific visa types, please check out the government website. They have the most updated information on gaining a settled status in the UK.

Applying for a Visa

With the help of an immigration law solicitor in Manchester, you have a higher chance of getting a green card for your stay in the UK. Before you speak to your immigration expert, make sure that you have all of your information in order. This includes:

  • Your Passport
  • Any sponsorship confirmation letters
  • Evidence that you can support yourself financially
  • Proof that you are fluent in English
  • Proof of payment for your health-care sub charge
  • Confirmation of education placement
  • Evidence of job position in the UK
  • Birth certificates or proof of spouse/family relationships

File these documents away carefully and then give them to your lawyer at Gowing Law Solicitors. They can recommend the best visa for you and support you as you begin your journey to settle in the UK. If you are planning on staying longer than 6 months, you may need to obtain a biometric ID.

How much does an immigration Visa for the UK cost?

This depends entirely on which of the visas you go for, and whether or not you go for expedited information process. However, most visas will cost over £500 unless you fall into a category that exempts you from the fees. Keep in mind that visas are expensive and change their cost depending on how long you want to stay in the UK. Make sure to discuss this with your lawyer to ensure you have enough funds to pick the right one for you and your situation.

How long will it take for my UK Visa to be approved?

Again, this depends on your own personal situation. However, most are processed within 10 days. Others may take longer, up to 30 days, if they are more complicated. Consider your own situation and try to display your information as clearly as possible. The more transparent you are with your documents, the faster it will be processed.

Do you have the right to remain? Here’s what you need to know!

Having the right to remain in the UK means that you have been allowed to become a permanent resident in the United Kingdom. Now, for you, the UK is your home. That’s why you don’t want to have to leave any time soon! Gowing Law Solicitors have some of the top immigration solicitors in Manchester that can help you understand your rights and can help you get through the VISA process to achieve permanent residence.

So, what do you need to do to ensure that you still have the right to remain? Let’s get started with the basics of immigration law and what you need to know in order to secure your residency.

The Problem of Brexit & The Right to Remain

Everyone knows about the impact of Brexit and how it has turned the world of immigration on its head. With the passing of the Withdrawal Agreement in January 2020, also known as “exit day”, it’s important to understand that the UK is still in the transitional period until December 2020. Right now, all legislation in the UK that has been derived from EU law will still have an effect. Any directly effective EU rights will automatically become part of British law if they are passed before the end of the transition period. Parliament can retain this law (as British law) but it can be amended once EU membership ends.

So, the main point is that if you want to stay in the UK, you will need to obtain your residency status before January 2021. It is very likely that EU regulations will be swept away once 2021 rolls around, to the point where it may become far easier to deport EU citizens after Brexit. Check out this article to learn more about how this could be possible!

Settled vs Pre-Settled Status

Now, when you have applied for EU settlement status, the government will decide on your residency based on how long you have already been living in the UK. This will determine your rights and how long it will take to become a permanent resident. So, what is the difference between the two? Here is a quick infographic to help you understand.

It is free to apply to the EU settlement scheme, however keep in mind that the status you acquire mainly depends on how long you have been living in the UK for. However, applying for a Visa isn’t as simple as it sounds. That’s why you may need an experienced immigration solicitor from Gowing Law Solicitors to help you with the process.

The Basic Requirements for a VISA

As you can see, there are a lot of routes that you can take to get a Visa to stay in the UK. If you want to get indefinite leave to stay in the UK, you need to be a law abiding citizen. Once you have passed the time limit (5 years)that is needed for you to be considered a “citizen”, you will need to pick the VISA that will suit your living, work and personal situation.

Keep in mind that you will also need to fulfill the following general requirements to successfully apply for indefinite leave to remain:

  • Have no criminal record
  • Have no breach of immigration laws during the time spent in the UK
  • Pass a “Life in the UK test” based on British culture, traditions and history.
  • Show that you have a B1 level command of English. You will find more information on this through the Common European Framework of Languages

Whilst these are the basics of starting off your VISA journey, remember that it does depend on your personal circumstances. Sometimes the minimum time requirements may be longer or shorter. For instance, if someone has been living the UK under “long residence”, then you may have to spend 10 years in the UK before you are considered. On the other side, the wait may be shorter if they are under 18 and have a parent with British citizenship. Speak to your Manchester immigration solicitor to find out more information about your own personal situation.

Don’t forget about the GOV.UK form!

Whilst you should speak to a trained permanent residence solicitor about your immigration status, you can do some research on your own to build up your basic knowledge. If you already are considering what type of Visa you are going to be getting, don’t forget to fill out the UK Government’s form. This permanent residency form will take all of your information into account and the visa you are interested in applying for. From there, it will give you the basics on how you are going to apply for the Visa and what you will need to do to secure your citizenship.

Before you speak with your solicitor, make sure to give it a little look at! That way you can understand your solicitor and how they are going to help you stay in the country after 2021.

Is there a chance I may not get a UK Visa?

Naturally, there is always a chance that you may be rejected for your VISA. However, this is very unlikely if you have been honest in your application and filled it in completely correctly. Gowing Law Solicitors will work hard to ensure this does not happen to you. Here are some examples of why you may end up being rejected:

Additional reasons why you may not get your Visa or the approval of your immigration status include:

  • Mistakes in your application form
  • Application in the wrong Visa Category
  • Supporting documents are not submitted with the application
  • Financial requirements are not met (i.e. for a points based Visa)
  • Insufficient evidence of relationship (for a relationship Visa)

Although you may have the opportunity to re-apply for your Visa, it will look better if you get it on the first try. Working with an immigration specialist from Gowing Law Solicitors will guarantee you the best advice possible about the right to remain, so make sure to contact us soon!
