With 13 years of experience as a Visa Officer with the UK Home Office and over two decades in UK immigration, we specialise in navigating these complexities.
Our dedicated service ensures you secure a priority slot quickly and efficiently. No upfront payment is required – if we don't succeed, you don't pay.
We don't need access to your SMS or be listed as your legal representative, we can submit the request using our own email address.
Let us handle the hassle, so you can focus on your business.
Let Immtell help you to move forward and sponsor your workers without delay, worry or stress.
If your Undefined CoS allocation is depleted, or you need to assign more CoS than you currently have available, you'll need to request an in-year allocation increase.
If you urgently need to assign a CoS to a worker for a visa extension or to hire someone new, you must ensure you have enough available. Requesting an increase in allocation is crucial.
With only 60 priority service requests accepted daily, securing a Home Office priority slot to expedite your CoS allocation request can be highly challenging.
Remembering to send daily requests to the Home Office for a priority slot, only to face refusals, is both frustrating and time-consuming. Let us take care of it for you.

Initial Steps:
Upon placing an order and confirming that you want us to proceed, you will need to submit the CoS allocation request via the Sponsor Management System (SMS) if not already done.

Our Actions:

Once a slot is obtained, we will forward you the email containing a link to make the payment directly to the Home Office.

Obtaining a priority service slot does not influence the consideration of your request; we do not guarantee the outcome.
Persistent Efforts:
We will submit repeated requests for up to 10 days if we are unsuccessful in obtaining a slot initially.
We understand that obtaining a limited priority CoS allocation slot can be challenging, but we are confident in our ability to secure one for you. Here's our guarantee:

We are dedicated to securing a priority service slot for your CoS allocation request.
