- Evan Gorgees★★★★★Worked with Dean for both my ILR and citizenship - very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Highly recommended!
Getting a VISA sometimes can be a huge bureaucracy process, but with this company was well structured and simple to achieve, they provide all the assistance and returned all my emails really fast and also never left me without a status or hanging on any process. I recommend their service to everybody, as it was perfect and without any problems.
SkillClear has handled my Tier 2 Skilled Migrant visas since I started working in the UK in 2014. They also successfully handled my ILR this year. My experience with SkillClear, and specifically with Dean Marshall, who was my point person has been excellent over the past 5 years. The service has been courteous, professional, and completely hassle free. Dean has been flexible and accommodating throughout, fully understanding the taxing nature of my busy career. I recommend SkillClear and Dean to anyone.
SkillClear expertly guided us through the complex process of hiring and relocating a skilled employee from Canada. Looking back over all of the steps required I’m not sure that we would have been successful without their rigorous and methodical assistance throughout. Their service was assured and professional and we believe it was ultimately excellent value for money.

We will discuss your situation and goals in depth with you and if we are able to offer representation then we will provide you with a quote once we have established the scope of work required and this will usually be offered on a set-fee basis.
This depends on the type of visa you apply for, where you apply and what fast-track or priority services are available when you apply. We will outline the available options before you engage us to assist and we will check these again prior to application submission.
