Praises also goes to how she handled the application, liasing with the home office to check our status and communicating with us, the next step to take.I highly recommend IAS and Agnes if you’re looking for an expert to handle your immigration case with professional advice.

    After my initial conversation with IAS UK, I paid and booked an appointment and fortunately, my appointment was with Agnes Oghogho. She was very attentive and professional, she asked all the relevant questions, and she advised that I applied for a Certificate of Entitlement to right of abode. She gave me a huge discount. She was hard on me during the compilation of all the necessary documents – all in a good way and to ensure success-Fastforward to June 22, 2024, I was called to come and pick my Passport at the Visa application center and I got my Certificate of Entitlement to right of abode stamp.Thank you ma’am. Thank you indeed. MO
