Leeds

We have been providing independent and confidential advice and representation to people with immigration and asylum problems since the early seventies and continue to do so.

We can give you a free assessment and may be able to help you free of charge thereafter. Otherwise, we operate a non profit fee paying service - and as you might expect, the modest charges simply cover our costs. Click here for more details.

Sponsors and friends/family of those based in Bangladesh may also like to know about IAS' international office in Sylhet. 

We are open to the public Monday to Friday between the hours of 09:00 - 17:00.

Drop in
For your first visit, please come to the office between 9.00 am and 5.00 pm Monday to Friday. Clients are seen on a first come, first served basis. Please ring us before coming to check availability, and when you visit us bring satisfactory evidence of means so that we can work out whether you qualify for free advice. Please also bring a friend to your first appointment if you are unable to speak English.
