USA L1 Visa

If your company is transferring you to a location in the United States, you’ll need an L-1 Visa. This visa is designed for intracompany transfers and can allow you to work for your employer in a managerial or other specialised position.

To find out if the L-1 visa is right for you, and to get help with your application, speak to one of Global-Migrate’s qualified immigration advisors today.

In general, your company needs to be doing business in the United States as well as another country, and intend to continue doing so. As an employee, you need to have been working for such a qualifying company for one continuous year within the three years prior to relocating to the US.

Like other non-immigrant visas, you will be limited to a certain amount of time in the US. However, with an L-1 visa you will be able to bring certain family members with you. To find out which family members can travel with you, and what limits they will have on their stay, call Global-Migrate today.

Another difference between the L-1 visa and some other non-immigrant visas is that you will not be required to maintain a foreign residence while you are in the US. You will also be able to apply for permanent residency, meaning you’ll be able to remain in the US even after the period of your L-1 visa is up.

The benefits of relocating to the US through an L-1 visa are great. It can allow you to migrate while keeping your existing job, and lacks many of the limitations of other employer-based visas. To find out more about whether the L-1 visa is right for you, take Global-Migrate’s free initial visa assessment today.

Our qualified advisors have helped many people make their immigration dreams a reality. Let us help you prepare for your move to America.

Fiance Visa

If you are planning to marry a British national or somebody settled in the United Kingdom, you might be eligible for a UK Fiance Visa. This visa allows you to come to the UK for up to six months before your wedding or civil partnership provided you intend to settle in the UK after it. If you aren’t sure this is the right category for you, call Global Migrate for help. Our advisors can help you determine which visa category fits your situation. For a fiancé visa, you and your fiancé must both be over 18 and legally allowed to marry each other. You must have met each other in person, and your relationship must be genuine. You must also demonstrate that you meet certain financial and language requirements. You will not be allowed to work while in the UK on a fiancé visa, and you must show that you and your partner will be able to support yourselves and any children during this time. The UK Border Agency provides guidance on how to prove all of this, but for advice about your specific situation, it’s best to speak to a trained immigration adviser at Global Migrate. As with all UK visas, you’ll also need to meet suitability criteria. These guidelines focus on things like criminal records, past immigration, and similar issues. You will also need to prove that you and your fiancé have suitable accommodation, and that you live together. If you have been denied a fiancé visa, you have the ability to appeal. Most refusals are because the proper evidence has not been submitted. As Global Migrate, we have our senior advisors check every fiancé visa to ensure you have a strong application with no errors. To get more information about fiancé visas, call Global Migrate today. With 15 years of experience and a very high success rate, we are experts in fiancé visa applications.

Investor Visa

Canada offers a program that allows immigrant investors to move to the country. The Immigrant Investor Program is currently on hold until further notice, although some investor visas are available through the Quebec Immigrant Investor Program. Applications made before 1 July 2012 will still be processed, though. For these applications, you will need to show that you have suitable business experience along with sufficient funds to invest. For these applications, you will need a net worth of at least C$1,600,000, and make a C$800,000 investment. The investment is administered by Canadian immigration, and is used to improve the economy of the Canadian provinces. Once the investment is made, you will be granted a permanent residency visa. The original investment is returned to you, without interest, after around five years and three months. The processing time does vary, and Global-Migrate’s Canadian immigration consultants can give you the most up-to-date information. Although this visa category is currently on hold, there are plenty of other ways for skilled business people to migrate to Canada. To find out about alternatives to the Investor visa, call, email, or request a call back from Global-Migrate today. We have years of experience helping people make their Canadian immigration dream a reality. Our free initial assessment can help determine the best visa choice for your individual circumstance.

British Citizenship

Becoming a British citizen is the last step in the immigration process. Through naturalisation, immigrants are given the same rights as those born in the UK. If you have been granted a settlement visa, or indefinite leave to remain, applying for citizenship is the final immigration service available.

There are several ways to apply for British citizenship. Speak to one of Global-Migrate’s immigration experts to find out the best path based on your current citizenship and visa status. To apply for citizenship, you will need to have been living and working in the UK for three to five years. The exact amount of time will depend on your current visa category. For people living in the UK as the married spouse or civil partner of a British citizen, you will need to be resident for three years. To check the residence requirement for your case, call Global-Migrate for more information and a free assessment.

The citizenship application includes requirements that are not found in visa applications. You will need to be of sound mind, meaning you are able to make your own decisions.

For anyone over 10 years of age who is not stateless, you will need to demonstrate good character. This includes acting lawfully and paying taxes. Your criminal background will also be checked, and you will be asked about participation in any war crimes or genocide.

If you are considering making an application for British citizenship, it is highly recommended that you speak to an immigration advisor first. With fifteen years of experience, Global-Migrate is a leading expert in immigration, and we can help you with your citizenship application.

We work with hundreds of applicants every year, and our highly trained case workers keep up to date with all the changing immigration regulations. If you want to become a British citizen, get in touch with Global-Migrate today to discuss your path to naturalization.

USA E2 Visa

One of the most popular ways to immigrate to the United States is through one of the employment-based visas. The employment-based visas are limited to approximately 140,000 per year, and are split into five categories. Around 40,000 of these visas are given to those in the Second Preference, or E2, category. This type of visa is for those who hold advanced degrees or have exceptional abilities. For US immigration, a professional holding an advanced degree requires that you hold a degree beyond a baccalaureate degree. You may also qualify if you have a baccalaureate degree and at least five years of experience in your field. If you don’t meet this qualification, you may still be eligible for a different visa category. To ensure that you’re applying for the right type of visa, call our trained immigration advisors today. A person of exceptional ability can also apply for an E2 visa. If you are a professional with expertise in your field beyond that ordinarily encountered, you might qualify. This can be in the sciences, arts, or business. With so many people applying for a limited number of visas, it is important to speak to a qualified immigration advisor. Global-Migrate can offer you a free immigration assessment to help determine if an E2 visa is right for you. To qualify for an E2 visa, you will generally need to have a labour certification as well as a job offer. Your US employer must file a petition on your behalf. If you don’t have these, you can apply for an exemption, though you will have to demonstrate that your migration would be in the national interest. For more details about these requirements, or how to get an exemption, get in touch with Global-Migrate’s team of qualified immigration advisors today. Our consultants can help you make your immigration dream a reality.
