Immigration law advice for nanny


Fi12

Recommended Posts

Hi,


We have a wonderful nanny from New Zealand, who we would like to look into sponsoring as an employee to stay in the UK for a while longer. Her existing 2 year visa is due to expire in the new year. Can anyone recommend an immigration lawyer or visa agency who we could talk to to get some initial advice please?


Many thanks,

Fiona

Personally (having been involved in refugee practice) I would recommend Wesley Gryk Solicitors [http://www.gryklaw.com/] in Lower Marsh. Very knowledgeable and experienced, involved in training for professional CPD requirements.


Another option (a charity) would be the Migrants' Resource Centre (http://www.migrantsresourcecentre.org.uk/).


Fisher Meredith are also very good, but seem to have moved from Kennington to High Holborn (http://www.fishermeredith.co.uk/)

    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them 
    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.
