      Frequently Asked Questions

      There are few requirements for the Tier 1 Investor Visa unlike most other points-based visa applications. The 75 points for this application are granted by having £2 million available to you, your spouse or your long-term partner.

      You will not need to pass an English Language test, be sponsored by a UK business or institution or prove you have adequate maintenance.

      This type of Tier 1 Visa requires you to invest all £2 million into UK businesses within the first three months of your visa being granted, so it is important that the money you use for your application is freely available for you to invest with before you apply for your visa.

      As the UK is one of the world’s top destinations for financial services and attracts a lot of foreign investment in this sector. Having a varied investment portfolio may help your application. However, as long as you are investing in active trading businesses in the UK, you will be fulfilling the expectations of your Tier 1 Investor Visa.

      While the property sector is a large draw for international investors, many property investments are no longer accepted by the Home Office. This includes those involved in property development, property investment and property management.

      There is no guarantee that your appeal will be successful. If you are refused an application, you have a right to a review within 28 days, and you can appeal the decision within 10 working days. 

      Our immigration lawyers can help assess whether you are eligible for an appeal based on the grounds of your Investor Visa refusal. We can also guide you through the entire appeal process.

      If  you have invested £2 million in the UK economy, you will be able to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain after five years. This is the standard residence period to be considered for ILR and will require you to extend your Investor Visa after the initial three-year period.

      If you have invested at least £5 million in UK businesses, you will be able to apply after three years. Investing £10 million will allow you to apply for ILR after just two years.
