Thanks for your enquiry via our online assessment.

We may be able to make an application for you for the Highly Skilled Migrant
visa. This is a points based system, for which I need to know your gross
income for the last 12 months to the current date in order to assess your
case. Please advise.

Also, please could you attach your CV - it has not come through clearly on
our online form.

Our fee for arranging the visa is GBP595, ex govt fee of GBP150.

I look forward to hearing from you.
