27.06.2025
Background
The case involved an applicant who first arrived in the UK in 2022 after receiving a successful endorsement from the Arts Council in the field of music production. The applicant sought to extend his Global Talent visa and requested that his wife, as his dependant, be included in the application.
Challenge
A key challenge in this case was ensuring that the applicant could demonstrate that he had earned income in the UK in the music production field, as this is a crucial requirement for a Global Talent visa extension.
Our Approach
Ms. Aliya Rimshelis expertly handled the case, advising the applicant on the specific documentation required to prove his earnings in line with the endorsement criteria. She ensured that all relevant financial evidence was gathered and presented in a way that would meet the Home Office’s requirements for a successful extension.
Outcome
Thanks to careful preparation and precise documentation, the applicant was granted the Global Talent visa extension within less than a month. This outcome allows the applicant to continue building his music production career in the UK, including growing his own music production company without immigration restrictions. When the necessary residence requirements are met, the applicant will also be eligible to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain.
Conclusion
This case highlights the importance of thorough legal advice and preparation when applying for visa extensions. With the right support, applicants can continue to grow their careers in the UK without unnecessary immigration barriers.
