OTS Success Application For Accelerated Leave to Remain Made Under Entrepreneur Visa Route

Posted onNovember 7, 2016

Solicitor – Teni Shahiean – Partner and co-founder of OTS Solicitors

Background

Teni’s client is a Chinese family who came to the UK on a Tier One (entrepreneur) Visa. They had gone on to create an extremely successful business and wanted to apply for accelerated leave to remain in the UK.

How we helped

Under the Tier 1 (entrepreneur) Visa, there are two ways accelerated leave to remain can be granted:

a) the business employs 10 or more people who are ‘settled’ (ie are British Citizens or have Indefinite Leave to Remain) in the UK; or

b) the organisation has a turnover of at least £5 million per year

Teni’s client is applying under the 10 or more employee qualifier. The application required a vast amount of paperwork to be collated and submitted to UK Visas & Immigration, not only from the applicants themselves, but their employees.

We have advised the clients on the supporting documentation needed, prepared the application and are currently awaiting a decision from the Home Office.

Follow-up Support

Once the family obtain Indefinite Leave to Remain, we will continue to work with them to strategise their application for British Citizenship, ensuring any business travel requirements do not jeopardise their eligibility for naturalisation.

Hans is incredible - look nowhere else !! My parents experience has been sensational . They have asked me to leave this review on their behalf . They had a very difficult case and were concerned about their future and Hans assisted them with a positive outcome which we thought could take years to resolve . From start to finish he and his colleagues had a one to one zoom call with us and then provided their advice and next steps . The best thing about Hans is he is always in contact , even in the evenings but this isn’t the only reason why he’s amazing , it is how articulate and how much care and thought they have put into the case that they managed to secure success . Hans you’re an asset to the firm and keep going and changing peoples’ lives . We couldn’t have done it without you . Anyone seeking advice and comfort , this firm , especially Hans has such an incredible reputation and will not let you down . Thank you Case Workers: Hans Sok Appadu
