Works for everybody

If you were issued your D visa without an AIMA appointment, or if you're applying for a residence permit from within the country, this method works
No waiting lists
AIMA opens slots several times a year. Attorneys can file suites at any time, not dependent on availability of the "open slots"

It's quick

In our practice, it takes approximately from 3 weeks to 4,5 months for a decision to get your appointment. More often we are able to get your slot much sooner

It's affordable

Local 'helpers' who secure appointments over the phone charge between 500 and 1000 euros. Our service costs 499 euros per person, or even less for a family
It's official
You don't depend on promises of some professional helpers, we have real lawyers who file official claims
It's convenient
You can't choose the AIMA office for your appointment, but families do go to the same location on the same day
