As the year wraps up, I just wanted to take a moment to send warm wishes to you and your family. I truly hope that 2025 brings you loads of success and happiness in everything you pursue!

It’s been such a joy getting to know you and your loved ones this year. We’ve had an eventful 12 months with some significant changes, like: the huge rise in Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) fees in February, the new Minimum Income Requirement (MIR) for spouse visas in April, the New Labour government that took office in July elections and the new E Visa System fully kicking in with BRP Cards becoming redundant from 31st December 2024.

I’m thrilled to share that Cross Border Legal Solicitor has had another busy year! We’ve been able to help many clients navigate the complexities of obtaining their visas, and it’s been so rewarding to reunite families and help individuals regularize their stay in the UK.

Thank you for being part of our Cross Border Legal family! Your support through social media interactions, heartfelt testimonials, and your trust in us means so much. We consider you not just customers but friends, and we can’t wait to keep working together in the new year.

**Holiday Office Closure Notice:**

Just a heads-up: I’ll be out of the office starting at noon on December 20, 2024, and will return on January 6, 2025. I won’t have access to email or my phone during that time (I’m planning a little adventure in the woods!). If anything urgent comes up, please call 999.

I can’t wait to catch up with you again on January 6, 2025! Wishing you peace, joy, and great health in the coming year.
