UK Ancestry Visa

Live & Work in the UK through your family history

If you have a UK-born grandparent and are a Commonwealth citizen, the UK Ancestry Visa can give you the right to live, work and build a long term future in the UK, without needing employer sponsorship.

We help you:

  • Confirm you meet the ancestry route

  • Gather the right records to prove your family line

  • Show you intend and are able to work in the UK

  • Prepare a clear, well organised application

Why applications are refused

Most refusals are not because people truly “don’t qualify”, but because the Home office is not satisfied with the evidence.

Common Problems include:

  1. Missing or incomplete birth certificates

  2. Gaps the the family chain

  3. Name changes or spelling differences that are not explained

  4. Weak or unclear evidence of intention to work (note - no job required, just intention)

We focus on making your ancestry and intentions easy for a caseworker to follow.

Who is this route for?

This route may be suitable for individuals who:

  • Are a Commonwealth citizen with a UK-born grandparent

  • Can obtain full birth certificates and other ancestry documents

  • Plan to work, or be self employed in the UK

  • Want a clear path to settlement after five years

Typical examples include:

  • Applicants relocating to the UK for employment or self-employment

  • Individuals returning to the UK with established family ties

  • Those planning long-term residence rather than short-term work

This route is less suitable where ancestral evidence cannot be established, employment intentions are unclear, or suitability issues arise from immigration history.
