1. How can I apply for a UK Skilled Worker Visa?
The UK Skilled Worker Visa allows you to live and work in the UK for an approved employer. To qualify, you must have a job offer from a licensed sponsor, meet the minimum salary threshold, and prove your English language ability. You’ll also need a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) from your employer.
At Asher & Tomar Solicitors, our immigration experts guide you through the entire process — from preparing your application to ensuring all documents meet Home Office standards, helping you secure your UK work visa smoothly.
2. What are the financial and eligibility requirements for a UK Spouse Visa?
To apply for a UK Spouse Visa, you must be married to or in a civil partnership with a British citizen or settled person. You’ll need to prove your genuine relationship, meet the minimum income requirement (£18,600 per year), and show suitable accommodation in the UK. English language evidence is also required.
At Asher & Tomar, we specialise in Spouse Visa applications and help you prepare strong supporting evidence to avoid refusals or delays, ensuring a seamless reunification with your loved one.
3. How can I bring my family members to live with me in the UK?
If you’re a British citizen, settled person, or visa holder, you may bring your partner, children, or dependent relatives to live with you in the UK. Each family visa category has specific eligibility rules, such as financial support, relationship proof, and housing requirements.
Our solicitors at Asher & Tomar provide tailored advice on Family and Dependent Visas, ensuring your loved ones can join you legally and securely under UK immigration law.
4. How do I apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) in the UK?
Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) allows you to live and work in the UK permanently, free from immigration restrictions. You usually qualify after 5 years of lawful residence under an eligible visa route, passing the Life in the UK Test, and meeting English language standards.
The process can be complex, but Asher & Tomar Solicitors will assess your eligibility, prepare your ILR application, and help you avoid common pitfalls that lead to refusals.
5. What are the steps to apply for British citizenship?
You can apply for British citizenship by naturalisation after holding ILR or settled status for at least 12 months. You’ll need to demonstrate good character, knowledge of English, and successful completion of the Life in the UK Test.
Our immigration team at Asher & Tomar assists with document preparation, application forms, and submission to ensure your journey to UK citizenship is efficient and stress-free.
6. Can I extend or switch my current UK visa?
Yes. Many visa holders can extend their stay or switch to another visa category without leaving the UK. For example, you can switch from a Student Visa to a Skilled Worker Visa, or from a Work Visa to a Spouse Visa, if eligible.
At Asher & Tomar, we review your immigration history and help you choose the best route to remain lawfully in the UK while meeting all Home Office requirements.
7. What should I do if my UK visa application is refused?
If your UK visa application is refused, you have the right to appeal, request an administrative review, or submit a fresh application depending on your case type. The key is to act quickly and understand the reasons for refusal.
Our immigration appeal solicitors at Asher & Tomar provide expert representation for all appeal stages — from drafting legal grounds to attending tribunals — increasing your chances of success.
8. How can international students stay in the UK after graduation?
Graduates can stay in the UK under the Graduate Route Visa, which allows you to work or look for work for up to 2 years (3 years for PhD graduates) after finishing your degree. You don’t need sponsorship for this visa.
The team at Asher & Tomar Solicitors can help you transition smoothly from a Student Visa to the Graduate Route, or later switch to a Skilled Worker Visa to continue your career in the UK.
9. What are my options if I have overstayed my UK visa?
If you’ve overstayed your visa, it’s vital to seek legal advice immediately. Overstaying can affect future visa applications and may lead to removal from the UK. However, you may still be eligible for discretionary leave, human rights-based claims, or regularisation depending on your circumstances.
At Asher & Tomar, we provide urgent legal support for overstayers, assessing all available immigration remedies and helping you regularise your status lawfully.
10. How can Asher & Tomar Solicitors help with complex immigration or appeal cases?
At Asher & Tomar Solicitors, we specialise in all areas of UK immigration law, including complex cases, refusals, and appeals. Whether you’re facing a visa rejection, deportation order, or human rights claim, our expert team provides strategic advice, document preparation, and legal representation before the Home Office and Immigration Tribunals.
We take pride in delivering clear, compassionate, and results-driven legal support to help you achieve your immigration goals in the UK.

While it is not mandatory, having a solicitor can significantly improve your chances of success. Immigration rules change frequently, and a solicitor ensures your application is accurately prepared, fully documented, and compliant with Home Office guidelines.

Yes. Immigration solicitors can assist with appeals, administrative reviews, judicial reviews, and re-submissions. They analyse the refusal letter, identify errors, and recommend the best strategy to overturn the decision.

Processing times vary depending on the visa category. Most UK visas take 3–12 weeks, while priority services can speed up the process to 5 working days or even 24 hours. Delays may occur if additional checks or interviews are required.
