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

ILPA ( Immigration Law Practitioners? Association ) has a search facility for finding immigration lawyers. There are a mix of charities and private practice solicitors and OISC-registered advisers.

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/)

    • Mine still seem well populated. I assume the display filter is still acting as you'd expect with the other folders.  I trust and hope it'll be a recoverable glitch, even if they did manage to delete or mislay the online copies.     I had prepared a para. beginning "That's essentially reassuring, Vladii.  Thanks." before managing to somehow remove the rest of it irrecoverably from the EDF message edit pane. Back on the Greenby side, I've narrowed down my own problem.  Most of my email posts are 'From:' my own domain but posted via the PN relay.   Maybe a couple of years ago an alarming failure of these to reach gmail addreses, without any non-delivery message, emerged.  It seemed to be due to the absence of an SPF entry on its DNS record.  Once that had been added all was ok again.   The SPF entry is still there, but the symptoms have reapppeared.  I've narrowed it down to email From that domain posted via both Greenby and Plusnet webmail.  The same messages sent from the same domain via a mail client, via SMTP to the PN relay, seem all to get through ok. So does one sent by webmail using my official PN mailbox domain [me]@[myPNUsername].plus.com. I submitted a carefully written problem-ticket request last night, and find it got an immediate very detailed response from their bot, saying "Thank you for the detailed explanation - this is really helpful information...This is an interesting deliverability issue..."  It then went on to enumerate and explain several possible factors which could have been involved, and asked me to submit a fresh ticket with details of a missing email's sender, time, and intended recipient, so that they could check their logs and diagnose further.   I was actually impressed, for the first time, by the response's quality.  I guess bots must benefit from high quality input from users. 😉

    • Hi all I’m helping a friend prepare a surprise birthday party. Would anyone have any used or unused ‘happy birthday’ banners or bunting that they don’t need anymore. Also any other birthday decorations like balloons 🎈 or props would be really useful. Thank you 🙂 Claire - 07946 728879
