Questions, answered

Frequently asked

It depends on the program. UAE Golden Visas can complete in weeks; Caribbean citizenship typically takes 4–9 months; European residency 3–8 months; skilled migration to Canada or Australia 6–14 months. We give you a written timeline before you commit.

Many investment programs have minimal or no physical-presence requirements — Portugal asks for about seven days a year; Greece has none. Skilled visas usually require genuine residence. Every obligation is flagged before you apply.

Most programs allow spouses, dependent children, and in many cases parents to be included in a single application. We confirm exactly who qualifies during your eligibility assessment.

Investment programs generally have no language requirement. Skilled routes to Canada, Australia and the UK do — we include language-test strategy in your points plan.

We only submit applications we believe will succeed, and our agreements set out clearly what is refundable at each stage. Most program investments are only committed after government pre-approval where the program allows.
