COMMON QUESTIONS
Before you proceed
Clear information helps you plan with confidence.
Does completing an initial stage guarantee permanent residence?+
No. A profile, invitation or petition stage does not remove the need to meet the requirements of the remaining application process.
What are the fees and processing times?+
Check the current government fees and processing guidance at the official link above. Consultancy charges, if applicable, are agreed separately after discussing the scope of support.
Does an enquiry submit my visa application?+
No. Your enquiry starts a discussion with Global Outset. An application is submitted separately through the relevant authority’s process.
Can visa approval be guaranteed?+
No. The relevant government authority makes the decision. Preparation support cannot guarantee approval, selection or a particular processing time.
