Where Can I Get Advice?
VFS Global and its staff cannot give you advice on how to
complete your application, or what type of visa you should
apply for. If you need help with your visa application or
advice about the UK's Immigration Rules and requirements,
you should seek advice from a qualified immigration adviser.
In the UK immigration advisers are regulated by the Office
of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC - www.oisc.gov.uk).
You can also obtain advice from legally qualified professionals
regulated by designated professional bodies. A list of legally
qualified professionals who can advise on immigration matters
can be downloaded from the following websites:
Please note: The Law Societies of England, Wales,
Scotland and Northern Ireland and the Institute of Legal
Executives cannot provide direct help or advice on
visa applications. They can only provide a list of law firms
who can advise on immigration matters.
Who Decides If I Will Get A Visa?
Your visa application will be processed and decided
by UK Border Agency staff. VFS staff do not play any part
in or influence the outcome of your visa application.
