Dear Sirmadam,i Have Been Studying In The Uk Since 2008 Therefore, I Am Planning To Apply To Settle

Posted on October 20, 2019

Dear Sir/Madam,I have been studying in the UK since 2008. Therefore, I am planning to apply to settle in the UK based on long residence (12 years). I am currently filling the application form to settle in the UK but I need to give the dates of my entry and exit for the past 12 years. As I have not kept track of my travel history and I have lost my first passport I came with to the UK which had the stamps for the first 7 years of my stay in the UK I do not have this information. Therefore, I am emailing you to ask if the Subject Access Request will help me to get my travel history for 12 years (including entry and exit)? Thank you,Abdullah

I am extremely grateful for the professional support and guidance provided throughout my travel document application process. My case was stressful and complicated, but my solicitor handled it with great care, patience, and professionalism from beginning to end. I would like to leave that review for my solicitor Rakesh Patel and his team who helped me gone through this journey successfully. He was always approachable, kind, and responsive to my concerns and worries. Whenever I had questions or anxiety about my case, he replied to my emails promptly and explained everything clearly, which gave me reassurance during a very difficult time. He also consistently helped me explore alternative ways to resolve my case whenever difficulties arose, and his dedication and problem-solving approach gave me confidence throughout the process. His representation and detailed legal submissions were invaluable, and I truly believe my application would not have been successful without his expertise and dedication. I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking honest, knowledgeable, and supportive immigration advice. Thank you again for all your help and hard work. - Aye Case Workers: Rakesh Patel
Once again, the Team at OTS have not let me down! Reshmi Chowdhury has been outstanding throughout my Visa renewal, always cheerful, helpful and extremely professional. Bureaucratic red tape is confusing at the best of times and Reshmi has made the whole process seamless from start to finish. Her attention to detail and excellent communication throughout cannot go without praise! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I would not hesitate to recommend Reshmi and OTS. - W.Park Case Workers: Reshmi Chowdhury

Rakesh Patel at OTS Solicitors handled my ILR (Indefinite Leave to Remain) application via the Ancestry route. My case had some complications, but Rakesh was thorough, responsive, and reassuring throughout the entire process. He prepared a strong application, kept me informed at every stage, and the whole matter was resolved quickly — I received my ILR within one working day of my biometrics appointment. I'd highly recommend Rakesh and OTS Solicitors to anyone needing immigration advice. Five stars well deserved. Samuel Case Workers: Rakesh Patel
OTS solicitors helped me facilitate a British Citizenship application, which was successful. Reshmi Chowdhury was helpful, responsive, and professional throughout the entire process. M. Leiden Case Workers: Reshmi Chowdhury
