IAA-Licensed · UK-Regulated Advisers

Guiding you through every step of your immigration.

Settled Status, naturalisation and British citizenship for children — prepared properly, at a fixed fee, by an IAA-registered adviser. Entirely online, in English, Portuguese and Spanish.

Settlement · Pre-Settled to Settled

Pre-Settled Status? Turn it into Settled.

Five years of continuous residence gets you Settled Status. We check your absences, your evidence and your timing before you apply, so the switch goes through first time. Get it right and it is permanent: Settled Status does not expire, and it is what opens the door to citizenship.

Citizenship · Naturalisation

Settled already? Become a British citizen.

Naturalisation has strict residence, absence and good-character rules. We audit all of them against your history before a penny of the Home Office fee is spent. Apply at the wrong moment and the fee is gone and you start again, so timing is the first thing we look at.

Children · Citizenship Registration

Your child may already have the right.

Many children born in the UK, or to a settled parent, can register as British citizens outright. We check whether yours qualifies — before you pay for a visa you may not need. Registration is permanent, it cannot be lost later, and it usually costs less than the visa route families assume they need.

Visitors · Business, Study, Academic, Marriage

Coming for a while? Get the visit right.

Business visits, short courses, academic stays and Marriage Visitor visas. Refusals here usually come down to intention and funds — the two things we evidence properly. We also check that what you actually plan to do is permitted on a visit, which is where business travellers most often slip.

★★★★★

"Hannes Immigration Services transformed what could have been a complex and stressful process into an experience of remarkable ease, confidence, and peace of mind. From the very beginning, the guidance and care we received were truly exceptional. We felt thoroughly prepared, secure, and confident at every stage of the process, and our arrival at the United Kingdom airport was remarkably smooth and effortless. Thanks to Egon and his outstanding team, we were spared every unnecessary concern and were able to devote ourselves entirely to what truly mattered: enjoying an extraordinary journey and a wonderful stay in the United Kingdom. I am sincerely grateful for the professionalism, dedication, attention to detail, and genuine care with which we were guided throughout the entire process. It is rare to encounter a service that combines such excellence with such personal warmth. I wholeheartedly recommend Hannes Immigration Services to anyone seeking not merely assistance, but the reassurance of being in truly capable and caring hands."

FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions

Book a Virtual Consultation All questions
How long does it take?
Two clocks run separately. Ours: most applications are ready to submit within two to four weeks of you sending your documents. The Home Office's own processing times vary by route and change regularly, and priority services are available on some routes. We give you the current figure for your route at your consultation, rather than an average that may already be out of date.
What documents will I need?
It depends on your history. Family and settlement applications rest on four pillars: the financial requirement, proof of relationship, accommodation, and English language. You get a checklist built for your case, not a generic list.
Can I include my family?
Usually yes. Minor children can be included as dependants, and some children have a direct right to register as British citizens — which is often cheaper and permanent. We check that first.
Is there a risk of refusal?
Yes, and anyone who tells you otherwise is not being straight with you. The Home Office has no tolerance for missing documents or errors. What professional support does is find and fix the weaknesses before submission, not guarantee a result.
Do you work online?
Entirely. Consultations are by online video call, and documents go through an encrypted client portal where you can also track your case in real time. Very little needs to happen by phone.
Can you help me if I am not in the UK?
Yes. Because the service is digital, where you live is not a barrier. We act for clients applying from outside the UK and for those already in it, in English, Portuguese and Spanish.

Let's find out where you stand.

Tell us your situation and we will tell you plainly which route fits — or whether you already have a right you did not know about. A consultation is a fixed £50, and it comes off your fee if you go ahead.
