Do I need a lawyer or attorney to successfully apply for a Global Talent visa?
To apply for a Global Talent visa in the UK, there is no need to contact a lawyer or solicitor, unlike in the US. Here, you can try to put together a package of documents on your own, guided by the official data on the websites of the UK government and approving organizations. Or you can seek help from me, a talent visa holder, and save your time and avoid mistakes and stress.
What is the difference between Exceptional Talent and Exceptional Promise?
Exceptional Promise. This category is for those who are at the beginning of their professional or creative journey, have been actively developing in their field in the last 5 years and already have some merit and achievement.
Exceptional Talent. In this category, the level and status of your awards and achievements should be more significant. Typically applicants for this visa category have over 5 years of professional experience and are recognised leaders in their field.
Essentially the main differences are your work experience and achievements.
At your free consultation with me, I will help you decide on a category and assess your chances.
How much does a Global Talent visa cost?
It costs £456 to apply. Please note that this is not refundable if you refuse.
Submission of approved application (after endorsement) directly for visa: £152 plus £624 for each year of basic medical insurance as I explained earlier, multiply the cost by the number of years you are applying for. Also include the medical check-up, in particular fluorography, which can only be done at certain clinics. This is another $100 or so.
A 5-year visa will cost approximately £3,800 per person.
