Immigration advice for Kempston

Your nearest regulated immigration lawyer, just across the Great Ouse

Kempston is home to more than 20,000 people, according to the 2021 census, and it is one of the closest towns to our office. Only the River Great Ouse separates Kempston from the west side of Bedford, so clients from Kempston North, Kempston South, Kempston West and Kempston Central and East can usually reach Ford End Road in a few minutes by car or taxi.

Because we are so close, most Kempston clients prefer to sit down with Basharat and go through their papers face to face. Bring your originals, and we check them with you at the desk. If you cannot get away from work, a phone or video appointment works just as well and costs the same.

Yes. Many Kempston clients prefer to bring their passports and papers to the office. We look through them with you during the appointment, and you take your originals home with you.

Usually not any more. Since July 2025, Skilled Worker roles generally need to be at degree level (RQF 6) and meet the salary threshold. Some managerial or specialist logistics roles may still qualify, so we check the actual job before you apply.

Not always. It depends on whether either parent was British or settled in the UK when the child was born. If not, the child may be able to register as British later, for example once a parent gets ILR. We check the dates with you.

We offer 12+ immigration services, including spouse, family, child dependant, ILR, British citizenship, work, Skilled Worker, Graduate, sponsor licence, student, visit and business visas. Each one is available at our office, by phone or by video, at the same fixed fees.
