IMMIGRATION SOLICITORS
Immigration rules can be complex and difficult to understand. If you're looking to secure a UK visitor visa or UK residency, make sure you talk to the immigration law experts at New Court Solicitors in Southall. We can help with both initial applications and appeals to make sure the process goes smoothly for you.
The application process for a UK visitor visa typically involves submitting an online application form and attending a visa interview at a British embassy or consulate in the applicant's home country. The decision on the application can take several weeks, and applicants are advised to apply well in advance of their intended travel dates.
It is important to note that a visitor visa does not allow the holder to work or engage in any kind of employment while in the UK. It also does not allow the holder to extend their stay beyond the authorised period or apply to switch to another type of visa from within the UK. Violating these restrictions can result in serious consequences, including deportation and a ban on future entry to the UK.
Overall, obtaining a visitor visa for the UK can be a straightforward process for those who meet the eligibility requirements and provide the necessary supporting documents. However, it is important to carefully follow the visa application guidelines and restrictions to ensure a smooth and hassle-free trip to the UK.

A visitor visa is a document issued by the United Kingdom government that allows a foreign national to enter the UK for a temporary period for the purposes of tourism, business, or other reasons, without the intention of settling or working in the country. The UK visitor visa is also referred to as a Standard Visitor Visa and is valid for up to six months, although it can be issued for longer periods of time in certain cases.
​
To apply for a UK visitor visa, applicants must meet certain eligibility requirements and provide supporting documents to demonstrate their intentions and their ability to finance their stay in the UK. Some of the documents required include a valid passport, a completed visa application form, proof of financial means to support themselves while in the UK, a detailed itinerary of their visit, and evidence of accommodation arrangements.
​
​Applicants may also be required to provide additional documents depending on the purpose of their visit. For example, a tourist may need to provide a letter of invitation from a UK-based sponsor or details of their planned itinerary, while a business visitor may need to provide evidence of their employment or business dealings in their home country.
