IAU Immigration Advice

The Independent Advice Unit will advise to level 1 of the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioners Code of Standards. This means that we will help with:

• Diagnosing your need for specific immigration advice
• Basic administrative support
• Basic applications for entry clearance, leave to enter and variations of leave
• Referrals

If your application is refused or there is on-going casework we will refer you to a higher-level provider.

The advice and support that the IAU offers is free, confidential, non-judgemental and impartial. If we are not qualified to provide the service you require, we may need to refer you to another service provider; this will be done in accordance with our referral procedures and after we have discussed it with you. We will write to inform you of the details involved with this, including whether costs are likely to be incurred. If we need to contact a third party in your behalf we will require your written permission to do so.

Further information about the Code of Standards is available on request or you can have a look at the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner website.

Please use the links on the left hand side of this page to search for what you require.
