FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Before you request a quotation.

What should I send first?

Start with a short description of the request, the relevant deadline and a list of the documents you already have. Do not send original documents unless collection has been specifically agreed.

Are official fees included?

Government, registry, delivery and third-party professional fees are separate unless the written quotation expressly includes them.

Can Ask Uncle Winston submit the application for me?

It depends on the particular process. Some agencies require the applicant to attend, sign, provide biometrics or submit personally. We will confirm what can be handled administratively.

How long will the service take?

Our expected completion time is confirmed after reviewing the request. Any government or third-party processing period begins after submission and remains outside our control.
