UK Family and Spouse Visas: How to Choose Help Safely

Last reviewed: 25 October 2026. Immigration advice should come from regulated advisers.

Family visas are complex, and many applicants look for help.

• In the UK, immigration advice must be given by regulated advisers.
• Check advisers on the OISC register.
• Official application is on GOV.UK.

See GOV.UK: Family visas and the OISC adviser finder.

Red flags and scams

• Anyone who asks you to pay for a job offer, a permit or a “guaranteed” visa.
• Adverts with very high pay for beginners, or with no interview.
• Contact only by WhatsApp, Telegram or a free email address, with no company website or address.
• Look-alike government sites. Use only the official government website for the country.

If you think you have been targeted, stop paying, keep every message and receipt, and report it to Action Fraud. You can also email us at admin@jobsbroads.com.
