Example Immigration Case Study
Mitesh and Sruthi
Mitesh and Sruthi had lived in India for 5 years and got married in Kerala, in keeping with their traditional values. Neither Mitesh nor Sruthi were from India but had decided to start a family there, with two daughters and one son.
Mitesh was from the UK and wanted to move back to his birthplace with his family. With Sruthi not from the UK, and out of her home country for so long, she struggled to be accepted for a long-term VISA.
It was suggested that Sruthi return to her home country to apply for a VISA from there.
AGR Law were instructed to help the family to remain in the UK and helped Mitesh to make applications for his family and Sruthi to remain in the UK based on his family and children. Mitesh and Sruthi were able to apply to renew Sruthi’s VISA every 2 and a half years, due to the Article 8, Private Life.
This was a good result for the family and AGR Law, keeping the family together and enabling the children to not be separated from their mother.
