Immigration Advice for Members of the Military

Including US Air Force Personnel, civilians and contractors.

Immigration Advice for Members of the Military services

Efficient and experienced

We are regularly consulted by members of the United States Air Force, Veterans, Civilians and Contractors including at RAF Lakenheath, RAF Mildenhall and RAF Alconbury.

In addition to assisting individual clients, we also have experience of supporting US Corporate Entities who are working under contract with the US Department of Defense and we regularly provide such entities with advice on sponsoring workers on the local economy under T2 (Skilled Worker) permits.

We also help individuals abroad looking to apply for work permits to enter the UK to work for US corporate entities in the UK, working under contract with the US Department of Defense.
