Global Talent Visa Success After Two Refusals
Co-author: Michael Carter
Our client approached us after two consecutive refusals under the Global Talent route, having previously applied with other advisers. Despite being a successful tech entrepreneur who had founded, scaled, and sold a business, her applications failed due to poorly structured evidence and an inability to clearly demonstrate her personal impact, innovation, and leadership.
Strategic Review and Redrafting the Application
We carried out a complete strategic review and rebuilt the application from the ground up.
By restructuring the evidence, redrafting recommendation letters, and clearly mapping achievements to the Global Talent criteria, we were able to demonstrate:
- The client’s direct contribution to company growth and its successful sale.
- Sustained commercial impact, supported by verified financial and corporate evidence.
- Innovation authored by the client, including IP in her name and government-backed confirmation of innovative activity.
- Clear recognition of her leadership role within the tech sector.
We also addressed every concern raised in the previous refusals, ensuring the application was coherent, well-translated, and fully compliant with endorsement requirements.
Conclusion and Next Steps
This case is a strong example of how expert legal strategy and evidence presentation can transform an application — even after multiple refusals.
This matter was handled by Oksana Demyanchuk and Michael Carter.
