Immigration advisers in Manchester with an old-fashioned sense of care

IAUK is a team of IAA-regulated advisers helping individuals, families and employers navigate the UK immigration system — with the clarity of a modern platform and the attention of a private firm.

We don't run a call centre. Every client gets a named adviser who knows their case, explains each step in plain English, and is reachable when it matters — honest guidance, even when the answer is "not yet".

Your IAUK advisory fee is confirmed in writing before you commit. Home Office application fees and the Immigration Health Surcharge are separate government costs, which we itemise so you see the full picture.

Start with a free, no-obligation assessment. We review your situation and tell you honestly which route fits — or whether it's worth waiting — before any fee is payable. You can also use our guided finder above to narrow it down in three questions.

Timescales depend on the route and where you apply from, and the Home Office sets them. We give you a realistic estimate for your case, keep your application moving, and track it through to a decision.

A refusal isn't always the end. Where there's been a caseworking error we can request an administrative review, and we'll advise on reapplying. Our priority is getting the application right first time so it doesn't come to that.

Yes. We're regulated by the Immigration Advice Authority and handle your data in line with UK GDPR. Your details are only ever used to advise on and prepare your application.

Absolutely. We support UK employers with sponsor licence applications, Certificate of Sponsorship allocations, right-to-work checks and ongoing HR compliance.

An immigration adviser regulated by the Immigration Advice Authority (IAA) can advise on UK visas, settlement and citizenship, prepare and submit Home Office applications and, at the higher levels, handle appeals. The IAA authorises each adviser at Level 1 (advice and assistance), Level 2 (casework) or Level 3 (advocacy and representation). In the UK it is illegal to give immigration advice without being regulated or qualified.

For most visa, settlement, citizenship and sponsor licence applications, an IAA-regulated adviser or a solicitor can help. IAA advisers specialise in immigration, follow the IAA Code of Standards and must hold professional indemnity insurance. If your case needs court litigation that sits outside our authorisation, we will tell you honestly and point you to the right professional.

Search the adviser or firm on the IAA public adviser register, or use the government’s find an immigration adviser service. Every regulated adviser must also have a complaints procedure, and you can complain to the IAA directly.

No. Our office is in Manchester (M12 6JH), and we advise clients across the UK and overseas by video consultation, six days a week.
