Tier 2 visa took 5 months due to consistent admin errors

My Tier 2 visa took 5 months, and Vandana consistently palmed me off telling me to wait month over month when we missed monthly deadlines because documents were submitted wrong (ie. typos in the salary amount that were not caught month over month - meaning the certificate was delayed 3 months in a row - not Home Office delays). Very easy admin errors that we paid for a solicitor to ensure we did not make. We resubmitted with different errors multiple times while I was locked out of the country. Very disappointed.

I am being confused with another similar case in the response from the business below. My case was not completed in 2020.

I did have a successful result after being locked out of the UK for 5 months, missing countless important occasions (like a family wedding) for what should have been a 3 week long trip.

Dear CK, it's unfortunate you feel this way, given that we completed your matter a year ago, and in May 2020 you gave us a 5 star rating. No deadlines were missed and no documents were submitted wrong. You had a successful outcome as you are aware. We worked outside working hours to ensure that you received a successful outcome and we kept you fully informed throughout your matter, about the delays, which were caused by the Home Office.

Should you wish to discuss your concerns please feel free to contact us.

Regards

Excellent Legal Support For Employers

I have been using Davenport Solicitors for a number of years now as their help and support is critical when running a business with employees and contractors. Their advice and knowledge is second to none and every business should protect themselves as well as their staff. I would definitely recommend Davenport to any business.
