This client wanted assistance with his Skilled Migrant Category visa. He approached our firm and booked an online consultation to discuss his visa application. After the consultation, he decided to engage with our firm. As soon as he engaged, Simon, our CEO, prepared and eventually submitted his application to INZ. When the global Covid-19 pandemic hit, this client and his wife got stuck in their home country - India. All subsequent communications regarding their SMC visa application were done via our online portal without any issues.
The client wanted to apply for his 2021 Resident Visa when 2021 Resident Visa was introduced. Unfortunately, they did not meet the requirements as he was still in India during that time. He booked a meeting with Simon to discuss how to approach the situation.
As per Simon, the client should keep their SMC and update INZ as he changed his job during the process. The client took Simon’s advice, giving Simon permission to follow up with the case officer from time-to-time. Finally, after a long journey, their resident visa got approved!
When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, many businesses were forced to reevaluate how they operated. For us, this meant shifting to a completely remote working model. Although this was initially difficult to adjust, we quickly found it more efficient and practical to communicate with our clients online with our advanced IT system. So even when the restrictions were lifted, our firm decided to continue with the no face-to-face meeting policy, which saves time and money while still providing clients with high-quality service.
