Terms and Conditions

In these Terms and Conditions, “The Practice” refers to The Visa Office Ltd – Online Services. The “Client” is the person or company who enters into business with The Practice by way of agreeing to the Practice’s “Terms & Conditions.” The undertaking between the Practice & the Client shall be governed by and construed as in accordance with the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC). Subject to the Rules of Conduct, the Practice shall not be responsible for any failure to perform its obligations hereunder, due to circumstances beyond its control.

The “Online Services” refer to those services which are accessible through www.visa-office.com and are currently limited to the “Visa Assessment Suite.”

Terms of Service

1. Visa Assessment Suite

The client hereby acknowledges the practice is permitted to carry out an initial assessment of the clients’ eligibility to apply for a visa application. The Assessment will be processed, reviewed and summarised by a regulated immigration adviser. The adviser may need to make contact with the client during the assessment process, therefore all contact details must be provided by the client to ensure a full service.

The visa assessment suite is an assessment of the Clients eligibility under the Immigration rules. The service and summary review is not to be interpreted as a formal opinion to the client. The Company takes no responsibility for the actions of the client should they use this service to proceed with their own visa application and the application fails. Should the client wish to have a formal opinion for their eligibility they must book a consultation with one of our regulated Immigration Advisers.

2. Standard off-line services

The Practice may advise, make recommendations and promote other services of the practice to assist the client after the completion of the assessment. These services are our standard offline services.

Our Standard offline services consist of consultation and opinion, document and application review and full representation. In the case that the Client opts for any of these services they will be required to provide documentary evidence for review by a regulated Immigration Adviser in order for the adviser to provide a full opinion as to the potential success of the application.

Our standard off line Terms & Conditions are made available on engagement of our services or upon request of the client.

3. Visa Assessment Suite – Service Standards

The Practice will respond to the client within 48 hours of the submission of the assessment form. There may be times whereby The Practice may be delayed in responding due to high demand for the service or if the clients assessment is of a more complex nature. The practice will not be held responsible for delays which occur due to reasonable circumstances out of its control.

4. Payment Terms

If the Client is using this service outside the UK and is using one of the above payment methods, a handling fee may be applied, due to varying exchange rates.

All fees relating to the Practices online services are to be paid in full in GB Pounds Sterling or in the equivalent currency in the country in which the assessment form is completed. Failure to pay the full assessment fee will cancel the online assessment process.

5. Client Declarations

Further, in the event that any Term and Condition shall be found to be void but will be valid if some part thereof were deleted, then such Term and Condition shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective.
