Kingsley Napley’s Medical Negligence Team ‘walks together’ with the Dame Vera Lynn Children’s Charity

We are familiar with change in immigration but even for us, 2024 has been a monumental year.
When someone sets out a process and gives your instructions, you kind of expect when you follow the instructions to achieve the desired outcome, like assembling some flatpack furniture.
In October 2020, the Government announced significant changes to the Immigration Rules on suitability and when someone could be refused entry to the UK on the basis of criminality.
Establishing whether you are a British national is not always straightforward. This process can involve British nationality ‘tracing’ through a vast, complex network of legislation. Our specialist immigration team at Kingsley Napley has considerable experience of navigating British nationality law and can assist you to find out whether you and your family members are or can apply to be British.
Tech Nation has remained the endorsing body for the digital technology branch of the “Global Talent” visa since the programme was launched in 2014, back when it was known as the Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa. As an endorsing body, Tech Nation reviews applications from talented people in tech from all over the globe. The applications are assessed against a set criterion, with successful applicants endorsed as having “Exceptional Promise” or “Exceptional Talent”. If endorsed, individuals can use this to apply for a Global Talent visa, which allows them to live and work in the UK.
