You will usually get a decision on your visa within 12 weeks of applying. A fee is required and you may have to pay a healthcare surcharge.
You will be able to work or study with this visa but you will not have access to any public funds. Your initial stay will be 33 months but you may be able to extend your visa and settle in the UK permanently.
Many people applying for this type of visa are turned down so please contact our specialist immigration lawyers who will be able to advise and guide you through the complex evidence that is required. We will be with you every step of the way.
