27 March 2018 – Read the reviews about our assistance to immigrants and their families like your here: <noindex>https://legalcentre.org/reviews.php</noindex> And as usual, the useful and just interesting UK & EEA Immigration Law news and updates from the Legal Centre - www.legalcentre.org – Mob : +44(0)7791145923 Датальная расшифровка последней (21 Март 2018) версии намерений британского правительства в отношении граждан EU и членов их сейчас сейчас и после Brexit. Особо важная ифнформация выделена красным цветом >>> Brexit: settled status and citizens’ rights – what has been agreed – detailed analysis – most recent UK Government's draft (21 March 2018) On 21 March the European Union and the UK published the impressively named Draft Agreement on the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community. In other words, a draft Brexit divorce agreement. NB This is a DRAFT, not a law, so in line with the UK Government's mantra, be aware that “nothing is agreed until everything is agreed”. The Draft Agreement ensures that EU citizens and their family members, who are legally residing in the UK in accordance with Union law, can continue to do so. This means that those EU citizens who are working, self-employed, who have sufficient resources for themselves and their families, who are studying, or have retained these rights, will be protected under the Draft Agreement. The UK may, should it choose to do so, require EU citizens and their family members living in the UK to apply for a new residence status and in doing so set requirements which can be less but not more stringent than those contained in the Draft Agreement. The purpose of any such application is to verify the EU citizen’s pre-existing right, and their family’s pre-existing right, to reside in the UK. The resulting residence status is being called “settled status” by the Home Office. The Draft Agreement also protects certain family members who are not living in the UK at the end of the transition period, allowing this select group to join their EU citizen relative later. Those family members not included in this select group will need to apply under stringent UK immigration rules if they wish to live in the UK. Certain other rights currently enshrined in EU law would be preserved, including benefits and healthcare entitlements. EU citizens who have made contributions into the UK benefits and pension system will continue to benefit from those contributions during their time in the UK and will continue to do so if they subsequently relocate to the EU. EU citizens will be allowed to be outside the UK for five consecutive years without losing these rights, which is longer than the two year period currently allowed. Changes from the EU’s Draft Agreement published in February The UK has accepted that the Court of Justice of the European Union will remain the final arbiter of the interpretation of EU law for the rights of EU citizens. Also, and amazingly, the Home Office’s preference to give lesser rights to EU citizens arriving during the transition period — that is, between 29 March 2019 and 31 December 2020 — has been defeated. This policy didn’t last very long and is a major victory for the EU. Free movement is locked in until the end of 2020. Both are substantial concessions by UK government and it will be interesting to see how this plays out within the Conservative party. Evolutionary changes are not always for the better. The Commission draft contained protections for EU citizens who marry or enter into civil partnerships after 31 December 2020, enabling these partners to come to live in the UK at a later date. This has been removed. Only those who are so related before 31 December 2020 are protected. If the UK chooses to implement an application process, the deadline for those who have resided in the UK before the end of the transition period to make an application has been reduced from two years to a maximum of six months from 31 December 2020. What are the protected rights and who can acquire them? The Draft Agreement, and the UK government’s proposed implementation of it, establishes: EU citizens who have resided in the UK lawfully for five years before 31 December 2020 will be entitled to “settled status” to protect their continued right to reside in the UK. This settled status will not be automatically conferred; all EU citizens, including those with permanent residence documents, will have to make an application to acquire it. Those who arrived in the EU before 31 December 2020 but who have not lived in the UK for five years will be allowed to apply for temporary status (also being referred to as “pre-settled status” by the Home Office to enable them to acquire five years of residence. At that point, they can apply for settled status. EU citizens who lived in the UK as self-sufficient persons or students will not need to show that they had comprehensive health insurance in order to qualify for the new settled status. Those that do not apply before the application deadline will, without serious and good reasons for not doing so, be residing without permission and will be subject to removal. EU citizens and family members who acquire new criminal convictions or issues affecting their character from 31 December 2020 will be subject to assessments under UK immigration rules and could see their documents revoked and, if not removed from the UK be banned for a period from applying for British citizenship. Family members will be allowed to reside in the UK under these proposals so long as they were already residing in the UK before 31 December 2020. Specific family members may be allowed to join EU citizens after 31 December 2020. All other family members will be excluded from protection under the Draft Withdrawal Agreement. The agreement does not cover Norway, Iceland, Lichtenstein and Switzerland, but it is expected to extend to those countries in the future. Irish citizens, it is said by the Home Office, are not affected and will not need to apply for settled status. Are all EU citizens safe? Only EU citizens who fall under Article 6 and Article 7 of Directive 2004/38/EC, and who are legally resident in the UK, will be protected by the Draft Agreement. This means the EU citizen must be and continue to be a worker, self-employed person, student, or self-sufficient person, or have lawfully retained those rights. The agreement is silent on what happens to EU citizens who cannot meet these requirements after 31 December 2020. The UK government’s proposes to implement the Draft Agreement by introducing the “settled status” scheme. So far, it appears to be more relaxed, as it will not actually require EU citizens to demonstrate how they meet Article 6 and Article 7. The UK government has said that EU nationals will only need to evidence that they have been and are living in the UK, and undergo criminality checks, in order to qualify under their proposed application process. The Draft Agreement confirms that deadline for submitting the application for temporary and settled status shall not be more than six months from 31 December 2020. For family members who join EU citizens in the UK the deadline to submit their applications shall be three months after their arrival or not more than six months after 31 December 2020, whichever is later. If the Home Office system collapses under the burden of the workload, the deadline to submit applications can be extended by an additional year. The Home Office will need to notify the EU and EU citizens where technical difficulties in the application process occur. One problem arises for EU citizens who are not resident in the UK on 31 December 2020 but have the right of permanent residence here. The Draft Agreement, on first glance, suggests that those EU citizens who already hold a permanent residence document for the UK but who are not living in the UK as at 31 December 2020 may not be included in the new application process. What about family members? The family members of those who arrived before 31 December 2020 are covered by the Draft Agreement. In general, only family members who are legally resident in the UK by this date will be able to apply for the new status. But family members as defined under Directive 2004/38/EC will be able to arrive after that date so long as the relationship existed before that date and there is evidence of this. In this group are: - pre-existing spouse - civil partner - durable partners - children or grandchild under 21 - dependent children or grandchildren older than 21 - dependent direct relatives in the ascending line The same applies for children born or adopted after 31 December 2020. Other dependent relatives (for example, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces, nephews) will be protected by the Draft Agreement so long as they were already residing in the UK prior to 31 December 2020. Also, included in the Draft Agreement are other persons whose presence is required in the UK by EU citizens in order not to deprive that EU citizen of their rights. For example, a non-EU citizen carer of an EU citizen child will be included in the protection of the Draft Agreement so long as they were residing in the UK prior to 31 December 2020. Children of those applying for settled status can apply for settled status at the same time as their parents. Those born in the UK by parents with settled status will be born British. What rights of exit and entry will EU citizens and their family members have between now and 31 December 2020? All EU citizens, and their family members, will be able to move freely into and out of the UK. An EU citizen can continue to use a valid passport or national identity card for travel. Non-EU family members cannot use their national identity card, and must rely on their passport for travel. After five years following 31 December 2020, the UK may decide not to accept national identity cards as a travel document for EU citizens if the national identity card does not include a biometric chip. Those who possess temporary and settled status will not be required to apply for exit or entry visas. For those that do not possess the new documentation, the UK has the option to implement exit or entry visas. For family members who reside outside the UK on 31 December 2020 and are able to join their EU citizen family members, they will be required to have an entry visa. The UK should assist that person in doing so and any such visa should be free of charge. What if an EU citizen already possesses a permanent residence document? Those who already hold a permanent residence document can have that document converted into the new settled status document free of charge subject to verifying their identity, a criminality and security check and by providing confirmation of continued residence. This means that those who have already paid once will not be required to do so again. Therefore, there remains a benefit to obtaining a permanent residence document under EU law now. Being in possession of a document will avoid having to undergo a full assessment later, simultaneously with three million other EU citizens plus their family members. Also, no matter how simple the new process is or how well publicised, there remains ongoing confusion as to the status of EU citizens or family members now when managing their day-to-day lives, and this may increase as we move beyond 29 March 2019 and into the transition period. Holding a document will prevent confusion when individuals attempt to rent a property, move between jobs or open a bank account. That is not forgetting the scenario, however small, that Brexit does not occur and the UK remains part of the European project. How will the future status be protected and enforced? If the new application under the UK government’s proposed scheme is refused before 31 December 2020, the application can be remade. After 31 December 2020 the applicant will have to appeal the decision to the UK First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber). While the tribunal will decide the appeal, the Court of Justice will continue to be the ultimate arbiter of the interpretation of EU law for the rights of citizens. This means the UK courts can continue to refer to its judgements. It also means that UK courts can continue to seek further interpretation and clarifications from the Court of Justice in areas of uncertainty for eight years after 31 December 2020. While the Court of Justice will continue to have the final say for an eight year period, it falls short of the promise of full protection for the citizen’s lifetime. But with the adjudication and enforcement mechanism remaining in place for the short term, the rights of EU and UK nationals living abroad will be secure for sufficiently long enough a period to acquire citizenship from their host state. It does mean that acquiring citizenship of a host country may no longer be a choice but a necessity for some. What about EU citizens who are outside the UK on 31 December 2020? EU citizens and their family members, who will be living outside the UK at 31 December 2020, should be considered as having a right of residence if they have acquired, and not subsequently lost, permanent residence. There is no rule on in-country or out-of-country applications in the Draft Agreement, which supports the view that permanent residence is evidence of residence, and an application for settled status can be made from outside the UK so long as they have not lost the right of permanent residence through an absence of a consecutive five year period. Any EU citizen currently residing outside of the UK who sees the UK their long-term home should consider applying for the document confirming their right of permanent residence in the UK. What about EU citizens with criminal records? It will be easier to refuse settled status on grounds of criminality than it is now for EU citizens, or their family members, who acquire new criminal records or new issues of conduct after 31 December 2020. Currently, there is a very high test under EU law requiring EU citizens to pose a genuine present and sufficiently serious threat to justify removal from the UK. This stringent test will continue to apply for all EU citizens and their family members for criminal records or issues of conduct acquired before 31 December 2020. People who acquire convictions or conduct issues after 31 December 2020 will no longer be protected by this EU law test. Instead, their applications will be subject to the UK’s assessment of criminality, which has a lower threshold to justify removal, leaving this group of EU citizens and family members at a greater risk of removal. While it is easy to tell individuals not to get into trouble, sometimes it is not always within their control. The vulnerable will be at a greater risk of falling under the UK assessment of criminality in the future. Remaining legal questions... It is quite a travesty that it has taken this long for the UK government to make firm commitments for the protection of EU citizens in the UK. Much of what has been agreed is uncontentious and unsurprising, and could have provided much needed reassurances earlier in this process. Also many questions remain, including amongst others: - What will happen to EU citizens resident in the UK but not legally because they were not, for example, working? - What about homeless EU citizens, who cannot be considered lawfully resident in the UK? - Will an EU citizen with a permanent residence document but outside the UK on 31 December 2020 be excluded from applying for settled status? - Will an EU citizen without a permanent residence document but who has automatically acquired permanent residence and living outside of the UK on 31 December 2020 be excluded from applying for settled status? - Why should EU citizens who start relationships or get married after 31 December 2020 be prevented from bringing their partners to the UK under the new application process? While some questions remain unanswered we should not lose sight of the fact that we do have clarity for the majority of EU citizens currently in the UK.

Immigration Minister Caroline Nokes made the announcement in a Written Ministerial Statement to Parliament. Legally, the UK could only extend the controls for a final 2 years if there was clear evidence that removing the controls would lead to a serious labour market disturbance. The Government has considered the evidence and with unemployment at near record lows, employment of UK nationals at near record highs and the Eurozone and Croatia forecast to grow strongly over the next 2 years, concluded the economic case for an extension could not be made. When Croatia joined the EU in 2013, the UK and other member states were able to restrict the access that Croatian citizens had to their labour markets for a maximum of 7 years. The UK is one of a few EU countries (Austria, Slovenia and the Netherlands) which applies such measures. The restrictions have meant that, unless an exemption applied, Croatians needed permission from the Home Office to work in the UK. Immigration Minister Caroline Nokes said: “This decision has not been taken lightly, but after careful consideration, we have concluded that there is not enough evidence to satisfy the legal requirements to extend the controls for the final 2 year period. Net migration of EU citizens has fallen in the last year by 75,000 and since joining the EU in 2013 only around a few thousand Croatians have moved to the UK. Estimates suggest there are below 10,000 Croatian in the UK and by comparison, in 2009 at the same point of transitional controls for Romanian and Bulgarian workers there were around 57,000 Romanians and 35,000 Bulgarians living in the UK, according to the Office for National Statistics. The time-limited restrictions to member states’ labour markets were provided for under the Treaty of Accession 2011 between Croatia and the EU and can be applied for five years, plus an additional two years if required to protect the member state’s labour market from serious disturbance. Under the UK’s application of the restrictions, Croatian partners and spouses of British nationals or other nationals settled in the UK are exempt, as are Croatian citizens who have worked in the UK for 12 months with the appropriate authorisation.

The Home Office will no longer accept applications for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) under the Turkish European Communities Association Agreement (ECAA) Business Persons category. This is in light of the Upper Tribunal’s reported judgment in Aydogdu v SSHD [JR/15737/2015]. The Upper Tribunal found that the settlement of Turkish nationals and their dependants did not fall within the scope of a provision of the European Community Association Agreement with Turkey, called the ‘standstill clause’. While the Home Office examined the implications of the decision, ECAA ILR applications continued to be processed until 16 March 2018. No new ECAA ILR applications will be accepted on or after 16 March 2018. Any ECAA settlement applications postmarked prior to 16 March will be processed under the same terms as before. Updated guidance is available on this page. Turkish business persons and their dependants can continue to apply for further leave to remain under the ECAA if they wish, for up to 3 years at a time, provided they continue to meet the relevant requirements. Applications for limited leave to remain under the ECAA provisions are unaffected by the Aydogdu judgment and will continue to be processed free of charge as normal. The UK BA intends to introduce a new ILR category for current Turkish ECAA business persons into the Immigration Rules. While the requirements of such a category are to be determined, this will be a charged route in line with others who are seeking to settle in the UK. >>> UK Visas and Immigration form - Apply to extend your stay in the UK: family of Turkish national (ECAA3) (16 March 2018) : <noindex>https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/...rson-form-ecaa3</noindex> Family members of a Turkish national in the UK under the European Community Association Agreement can use this form to apply to extend their stay in the UK. >>> UK Visas and Immigration form - Apply to extend your stay in the UK: Turkish Businessperson (ECAA2) (16 March 2018) : <noindex>https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/...-businessperson</noindex> If you are a Turkish national running a business in the UK under the European Community Association Agreement, use this form to extend your stay in the UK.

It comes as a useful reminder that whether detention is “reasonable” depends on all the circumstances of the case. In particular, the risk of a detainee absconding is by no means a determinative factor. The case is also useful for its discussion of the second and third Hardial Singh principles when considering vulnerable adults. >>> >>> Challenging good character refusals in British citizenship applications ? <noindex>http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/Admin/2018/399.html</noindex> The way to go may be a Judicial Review. Whilst it can be hard (and costly) to challenge good character refusals in the higher courts, a challenge is certainly worth pursuing in some cases where the Home Office has ignored substantial mitigating evidence of good character tendered by an applicant, to such an extent as to amount to an “over-rigid reading of the policy”. >>> Home Office helpline for querying bank account closures finally up and running The advertised Home Office phone number for challenging an account closure is 0300 123 4979 >>> New statement of changes to the Immigration Rules: HC895 - <noindex>https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/...5-15-march-2018</noindex> In-depth report : A short Statement of Changes in Immigration Rules HC895 was laid yesterday, 15 March 2018. It makes minor changes to the Rules to take effect on 6 April. The explanatory memorandum summarises the tweaks as being to: - Ensure that an asylum claim can be deemed inadmissible, and not be substantively considered by the UK, if another EU Member State has already granted the claimant international protection. - Make changes and clarifications to the Immigration Rules relating to family life. - Make the annual update to the list of Permit Free Festivals. Asylum Paragraph 345A(i) is changed from: An asylum claim will be declared inadmissible and will not be substantively considered if the Secretary of State determines that one of the following conditions are met: (i) another Member State has granted refugee status… to: An asylum claim will be declared inadmissible and will not be substantively considered if the Secretary of State determines that one of the following conditions are met: (i) another Member State has granted refugee status or subsidiary protection… This change is said to be “in line with both the UK’s established policy on safe third countries, and the EU’s objective in reducing the secondary movements of those granted international protection”. Family life In the section on requirements for indefinite leave to remain as a partner, R-ILRP.1.1.(d) currently reads: the applicant: (i) must meet all of the requirements of Section E-LTRP: Eligibility for leave to remain as a partner (except that paragraph E-LTRP.1.2. cannot be met on the basis set out in sub-paragraph © of that paragraph, and in applying paragraph E-LTRP.3.1.((ii) delete the words “2.5 times”); or (ii) must meet the requirements of paragraphs E-LTRP.1.2.-1.12. (except that paragraph E-LTRP.1.2. cannot be met on the basis set out in sub-paragraph © of that paragraph) and E-LTRP.2.1 – 2.2. and paragraph EX.1. applies; and This has been deleted and moved, with a slight rewording, to the section on eligibility for indefinite leave to remain as a partner (E-ILRP). The same goes for the requirements for indefinite leave to remain as a parent. The net effect is, again quoting the explanatory memorandum, to clarify… that those on a 5-year route to settlement must meet all eligibility requirements, including the immigration status, financial and English language requirements, at every application stage including where indefinite leave to remain is sought after five years, in order to be granted leave under these Rules. Festivals The list of permit free festivals in Appendix 5 to Appendix V has been updated. The new list is as follows: (a) Aberdeen International Youth Festival ( Africa Utopia (Southbank Centre) © Alchemy (Southbank Centre) (d) Aldeburgh Festival (e) Barbican Festivals (Only Connect, Summer Festival, Autumn 1, Autumn 2) (f) Barclaycard presents British Summer Time Hyde Park (g) Belfast International Arts Festival (h) Bestival (i) Billingham International Folklore Festival of World Dance (j) BoomTown Fair (k) Breakin’ Convention (l) Brighton Festival (m) Brighton Fringe (n) Brouhaha International Street Festival (o) Cambridge Folk Festival (p) Camp Bestival (q) Celtic Connections ® Cheltenham Festivals (Jazz/Science/Music/Literature) (s) Common People (t) DaDaFest International (u) Dance Umbrella (v) Download (w) Edinburgh Festival Fringe (x) Edinburgh International Festival (y) Edinburgh Jazz and Blues Festival (z) Glasgow International Jazz Festival (aa) Glyndebourne (bb) Greenbelt (cc) Harrogate International Festivals (dd) Hay Festival (ee) Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival (ff) Latitude (gg) Leeds Festival (hh) LIFT (London International Festival of Theatre) (ii) Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod (jj) London Jazz Festival (EFG) (kk) Meltdown (Southbank Centre) (ll) Norfolk and Norwich Festival (mm) Reading Festival (nn) RiZE (oo) Snape Proms (pp) The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo (qq) Wireless (rr) WOMAD (ss) WWE Live There are a few additions and omissions compared to last year. Of the big names, Glastonbury has been removed, as there is no Glastonbury this year. V Festival is no longer on the list either, but only because it has been rebranded as RiZE, which is listed. Room is made for the British Summer Time festival in Hyde Park.

Приветcтвую, ILR пожно получить за 1 день, если Ваша категория позволяет. Если подаетесь по почте - Вы легально находитесь в стране на основании т.н.

Оксана, Вы "передергиваете". Ссылка была дана с той целью, чтобы показать то, что я делаю для того, чтобы клиент мог получить проление, ILR и т.п. без того, чтобы проводить часы на форуме, без волнения, сразу, спокойно, с гарантией.

Приветствую. За последние 10 лет я подал пару сотен заявлений SETM, и все клиенты (100%) просили подать меня их заявление только в личном визите. Есть статистика по людям, как у Вас. То есть подали сами по почте...Потом звонят...что, мол, долго рассматривают. На практике - до 6-и месяцев. Бывает быстрее. Или дольше - зависит от качества поданных документов. Вам остается только ждать.

Although the appeal was dismissed, the court confirmed that running a business may amount to private life for the purposes of Article 8. The case is Onwuje v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2018] EWCA Civ 331. >>> Half of all immigration appeals now succeed : <noindex>https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/tr...o-december-2017</noindex> The percentage of immigration decisions being reversed by judges is at its highest on record, new statistics show. Exactly 50% of appeals to the immigration tribunal — mostly challenges to Home Office refusals to allow people to stay in the UK — now succeed. While the proportion of appeals succeeding at the First-tier Tribunal had hovered just below this mark for some time, the third quarter of 2017/18 was the first time that the rate hit 50%. The official data goes back a decade, to 2007/08. The human rights appeals were the most likely to be allowed, with a 57% success rate. The jump to 50% appears to have been driven by a spike in successful appeals in the “EEA Free Movement” category. Half were allowed in the relevant quarter, compared to 40% earlier in the year. >>> Inbuilt obstacles and mechanisms that the Home Office use to defeat, deny and deter immigration claims Some persons may make late human rights or protection claims that could have been made earlier. A person resisting removal may try and make a late claim because if they exercise their right of appeal it could delay removal. To make this behaviour ineffective in preventing or delaying removal, the new process under the Immigration Act 2014 requires that a Section 120 notice is served in every case. This notice requires the person to make any further claim now or as soon as reasonably practicable after it arises The consequence of not complying with the notice and making a late claim could be that the claim is certified under section 96 Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 which removes any consequential right of appeal where the claim is refused. >>> Appeal judges take firm line on settlement for people committing crimes against humanity : <noindex>http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWCA/Civ/2018/329.html</noindex> The Court of Appeal in Tanvir Babar v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2018] EWCA Civ 329 dealt with the application of Immigration Rule 276B. The court highlighted the tensions between the Home Office policy, the application of the Immigration Rule and the weight that needs to be awarded to the public interest in such cases. Ultimately the judgment reiterates that “compelling circumstances” are necessary to justify a departure from the general rule that people who are excluded from the protection of the Refugee Convention because of crimes against humanity should not be granted indefinite leave to remain. >>> Home Office Guidance re.
