Expenses & Time scale

The cost estimate will also include corresponding with you via letter, email and/or telephone.
In relation to your application there will be certain expenses and other costs to 3rd parties which you will need to pay, which are normally classed as disbursements, and they will be on top of our legal cost estimate when dealing with your case.

The costs and expenses maybe fees charged by the Home Office for making your application, which you will need to pay directly to them which will form part of your application process, please note that the Home Office fees can change at any time, but the up-to-date ones will be checked and obtained when your application is submitted, you will be informed of these costs in advance.
In relation to time scales, it is difficult to give a precise estimate as your application will depend on the various factors depending on the type of application. Time must also be allowed for you to collate your information and documents before the application can be submitted. In terms of an estimate, it may take approximately 4-6 weeks to obtain information/documents and paperwork from you, which may need to be submitted with the application, but we will try to give you an approximate time scale and keep you updated.
