Immigration adviser for Manchester
Regulated UK immigration advice for people across Manchester and Greater Manchester — from a fellow North West practice, just along the M62 in Liverpool. We advise online, by video call or phone, we give you an honest view of whether a route fits before you spend a penny, and our fees are fixed and agreed in writing with no VAT. We advise in English and Turkish.
ENS Immigration Advice is an immigration practice regulated by the Immigration Advice Authority (IAA) at Level 1. We are based in Liverpool — the same North West region as Greater Manchester — and we help Manchester clients with family and partner visas, work and Skilled Worker routes, settlement, British citizenship and the Turkish ECAA (Ankara Agreement) route. Most clients work with us entirely online; those who prefer to meet in person are welcome at our Liverpool office, a short train ride away.
To be clear: we do not have a separate office in Manchester — our office is in Liverpool. We work with Manchester clients online and by phone, which for most UK immigration applications is exactly how the process now runs.

Almost every stage of a UK immigration application is now handled online, so where your adviser sits matters far less than how good they are. Here is how working with us from Manchester actually works:
- Your consultation is by video call or phone, at a time that suits you — or in person at our Liverpool office if you would rather, around 35 minutes away by train.
- Documents are shared securely online. You send scans or photos; we review them, tell you exactly what is missing, and prepare your application and supporting representations.
- We complete and submit the online application with you, and prepare a clear document bundle and covering letter for the caseworker.
- Biometrics are done in Manchester, not in Liverpool. After you apply, most in-UK applicants book a biometric enrolment appointment at a UKVCAS service point. Manchester has its own service point, so you can enrol locally. Some applicants can reuse their existing biometrics through the UK Immigration: ID Check app and skip the visit entirely — we will tell you which applies to you.
Wherever you are in Greater Manchester, you get the same regulated protection and the same fixed fee as any other client.
“Immigration solicitor in Manchester” — do you actually need one?
A lot of people search for an immigration solicitor in Manchester when what they really need is a regulated immigration adviser. In the UK, immigration advice is a regulated activity, and both IAA-regulated advisers and solicitors can lawfully give it — so the right choice depends on your matter, not the job title. A regulated adviser can handle most straightforward visa, settlement, sponsorship and nationality applications; a solicitor or barrister is generally needed for court or tribunal litigation, appeals and judicial review.
ENS Immigration Advice is regulated by the IAA at Level 1. We are not a firm of solicitors and don’t claim to be — and if your case needs a solicitor or a higher level of authorisation than ours, we will tell you honestly and help you find the right person. Read more about how IAA Level 1 authorisation works.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have an office in Manchester?
No — our office is in Liverpool, in the neighbouring North West. We help Manchester clients online and by phone, and clients who would rather meet in person are welcome at our Liverpool office, a short train ride away. You get the same regulated adviser and the same fixed fee either way.
Can you help with my application if I live in Manchester?
Yes. The Immigration Rules are the same across the UK, and we work with clients throughout Manchester and Greater Manchester remotely. We handle your consultation, document review and online submission securely, and guide you through your local biometric appointment.
Where do I give my biometrics in Manchester?
Most in-UK applicants book a biometric enrolment appointment at a UKVCAS service point after applying. Manchester has its own service point, so you can enrol locally. Some people can reuse existing biometrics through the UK Immigration: ID Check app instead — we will tell you which applies and what to bring.
You’re in Liverpool — can you still help me in Manchester?
Yes, easily. We are a North West practice ourselves, just along the M62, and most Manchester clients work with us entirely online. The distance makes no difference to the advice, the regulated protection or the fixed fee.
Are you an immigration solicitor?
No. We are a regulated immigration adviser, authorised by the Immigration Advice Authority (IAA) at Level 1. Both regulated advisers and solicitors can lawfully give immigration advice in the UK; where a matter needs a solicitor or barrister — such as an appeal or judicial review — we will tell you and help you find one.
How much does it cost?
We work on fixed fees, agreed in writing before any work begins, with no VAT added. The fee depends on the type and complexity of your application, and it is the same wherever you are in the UK.
