Immigration & Asylum Act 1999 / Section V | Legal Disclaimer
The consultancy services provided by Interhousing Limited are exclusively focused on commercial assistance, specifically aiding international entrepreneurs and entities in exploring the prospects of implementing and growing their ventures in the UK while navigating cultural and other complexities of a new environment.
Please note:
- Our services are not provided for immigration purposes in any shape or form.
- In compliance with Section V (82) of the Immigration & Asylum Act 1999, our services are not given “in connection to a relevant matter,” which, in this context, refers to an immigration employment document in the form of an endorsement letter.
- We do not advise applicants on their endorsement prospects or outcomes, nor do we provide any advice, recommendation, statement or opinion on visa applications, outcomes, or immigration rules. This is clearly stated in our Terms & Conditions, relevant communications, and online publications, and is discussed with each client.
- Our services are provided for the purpose of commercial assistance and introducing applicants to the UK business market. Our purposes are not provided for immigration purposes or obtaining an “immigration employment document” / endorsement letter.
- Our services would be applicable to starting and scaling a business, whether in the UK or elsewhere, and regardless of any immigration conditions or hypothetical outcomes. For instance, an applicant may obtain assistance from an accountant, and submit the annual accounts produced by that accountant for the visa application. This does not equate the accountancy service to immigration advice or services.
- As innovation, viability and scalability, as key requirements of the Innovator Founder Visa are general factors that are relevant to the launch and growth of any innovative or disruptive business, some of our services may be provided in the broader framework of these, for instance referring a client to a patent attorney to discuss protecting their idea. This is a commercial service that is provided to help our clients save time and navigate a new business market, and these services solely constitute business consultancy services.
- We do not provide assistance to applicants to assist them meet their endorsement criteria.
- Any references to the Innovator Founder Visa on our digital channels or online content is provided on the basis of general information that is publicly available, and in the form of personal opinions of our director(s) or employees. The purpose of such content is that we are seeking to assist those who are aiming to establish businesses abroad, including the UK. With the recent reforms to the visa pathways concerning businesspersons and entrepreneurs, many of our target clients may also be seeking the Innovator Founder Visa. However, we do not provide our services with the objective of impacting any immigration application outcomes. We clearly state that we do not provide such services nor are we regulated to do so. This is clarified in our website, social channels and our initial and further interactions with our clients.
Our services assist founders in understanding the commercial processes of setting up and growing a business in the UK. For example, a client may seek feedback on the commercial viability and market position of their idea, this may be for various purposes such as raising angel investment. Discovering that a similar business already exists in the UK during our consultation is a result of general business advice, not related to their endorsement, and the provision of our services would be relevant regardless of the applicant’s immigration status or intentions at any time.
All advice provided by Interhousing Limited is on a commercial basis. For instance, we may refer a client to the OISC’s website for assistance from a registered immigration advisor or to an Endorsing Body’s website for information on their processes if a prospective or current client makes such an inquiry.
The key principle is that our services focus solely on general guidance of processes and information, providing consultations exclusively of a commercial nature covering areas such as business strategy, concept validation, marketing, funding, and intellectual property. These services are primarily designed for founders with innovative products or services, often tech-based, often seeking to raise funding now or in the future.
Furthermore, any reference to the requirements of Innovation, Viability, and Scalability as key factors of the Innovator Founder Visa is not provided in an immigration context. These three factors are universal for the growth of any innovative business seeking to expand in an international market, including the UK.
By engaging our services, clients acknowledge that Interhousing Limited does not offer any form of immigration advice. Any decisions related to immigration or visa matters should be pursued through regulated prof
