Visa application checking service

We offer a free, professional checking service for student visa applications for current students as well as their dependants. We strongly recommend that students extending their visa in the UK seek guidance from an adviser to check your application before submitting it online, so that it has the best possible chance of succeeding.

We can check your draft application and supporting documents via video call. You must prepare your draft application and supporting documents in advance, using our guidance on extending in the UK or applying overseas.

Offer holders should refer to our 10 steps guidance and visa application form guidance instead. 

While we endeavour to answer specific questions you may have about other categories of visa (such as Skilled Worker), we can only offer a full checking service for applications falling within our student visa area of expertise, which includes Replacement BRP and Transfer of Conditions applications.
