VISAEASE

You are obligated to apply for Spouse, Fiancé, Dependent family member visa for EU (European Union) citizens since January 1, 2021, if you would like to join your family member in the UK.

Since January 1, 2021, all EU citizens may need to apply for a UK visa depending on duration and purpose of their trip. Even if after checking you don't need to apply for a UK visa, you need to prepare necessary documents and take them with you. You may be asked these documents at the boarder in the UK.

In case you stay in the UK during the Covid-19, and your visa expires within the period from January 24, 2020 to July 31, 2020, you can request an extension for your visa until July 31, 2020. This rule was introduced due to travel restrictions and self-isolation.

Since the 6th July 2019 you can no longer apply for UK Tier 1 Graduate Entrepreneur visa. It was replaced by UK Start-up visa. The main similarity in obtaining both two visas is that the applicant must have a unique idea for starting a business in the UK.

In June 2019 TLS Contact UK visa centre and Immigration Office have made some changes in submitting supporting documents for fiance, spouse, unmarried partner, child of a settled person UK visas.

The new system of documents electronic upload of the UK Visa Application Centre TLS Contact, introduced at the beginning of the 2019 year, leaves much to be desired.

Visa applicants, who submitted their UK visa application before January 31, 2019, will not be able to use the web-site of the TLS Contact UK visa centre to check the status of their visa application.

The UK has suspended the issuance of Tier 1 "golden visas" scheme to wealthy foreign investors until 2019. The UK government made this decision on Friday, 7 December.
