Post by regatta » Wed Nov 01, 2006 9:08 pm

Hi,


Can buying property in UK help immigration and get permanent residence? Your opinions are requested. Thanks in advance. :)

No - sorry... Having somewhere to stay is a requirement of most of the provisions of the Immigration Rules, but buying somewhere won't override the need to meet the other requirements. Have a look at http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk

There are some provissions within the immigration law for investors; if you are buying a house with a mortgage, then it is unlikely that it would help you with your condition. If you have cash in hand to invest (the specific ammount in the law) you could create a company that invests in property...etc
