Support
Our resources page contains some information about how to make a Change of Conditions application yourself.
If you would like our support to make a Change of Conditions application, please fill out our referral form here.
We aim to be back in touch within two weeks of you completing the form. We may need to request additional information or documents over email before we can advise. Please note, we are closed for a month in August 2025 and therefore may not be able to offer substantive advice or support before September 2025.
Please note, we can only advise about applications for access to public funds – we do not provide unrelated immigration advice.
