07 February 2022 – Just useful and interesting UK & EEA Immigration Law news and updates from the Legal Centre – Open 7 days a week - www.legalcentre.org - +44(0)3300010342, +44(0)7791145923 (WhatsApp/Viber) >>> Home Office update: February 2022 - Visit visas – update on processing times Due to the ongoing impact of Covid and global travel restrictions, UKVI are experiencing unpredictable demand across all visa routes and standard visitor visa applications are taking on average 6 weeks to process. UK Visas and Immigration are working to reduce the current processing time as quickly as possible. An updated message informing customers of the extended processing times has been placed on the visa decision waiting times GOV.UK page. This is a global picture and we appreciate this will vary on regional demand. Customers will be contacted by the Visa Application Centre (VAC) when their passport is ready for collection and should not attend a VAC until they have been invited to do so. The vast majority of super priority and priority visa applications are being assessed within their service standards, where these services are available. Non-visitor visa applications (including study and work visas) are still being processed within published service standards and we are working hard to meet customer demand across all areas. Where there are extremely compassionate or compelling circumstances (for example, a medical emergency), customers need to apply for a visa in the usual way, including submitting biometrics at a chosen VAC. Customers should clearly explain the compelling or compassionate reasons in their application form and must alert the VAC staff during biometric submission. Customers will be contacted by UKVI once their application has been received. If they do not hear from UKVI or their request is exceptionally urgent, they can contact UK Visas and Immigration. Please note that this is a chargeable service for overseas customers. - Immigration Heath Surcharge portal From the 1 February 2022, when customers use the Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) portal when applying for T2, T5, Skilled Worker and Intra-Company routes, the portal will now calculate the total length of permission granted based on the details entered and the Immigration Rules. IHS has previously been calculated on the basis of Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) dates. As most customers are automatically granted extra permission after their CoS end date as per the Immigration Rules, the total length granted will now be included in the IHS calculation. This will remove the need for any additional top-up amounts that may be required for some customers once the permission has been calculated. - VFS global website domain Our commercial partner, VFS global have changed their website domain from .co.uk to .com. An automatic re-direct is in place. If you have this address saved as a favourite, you may want to update this to the new direct address - www.vfsglobal.com. - Travel to England guidance Guidance on the ‘Travel to England from another country during coronavirus’ page on GOV.UK: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/travel-to-england-from-another-country-during-coronavirus-covid-19 will continue to be kept up to date with the latest rules required for travel to England. This includes changes to international travel rules from 11 February 2022. >>> Visa decision waiting times: applications inside the UK: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/visa-decision-waiting-times-applications-inside-the-uk?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&utm_source=42ca38ff-3bb8-4703-be99-1b97d1e38e3a&utm_content=immediately >>> Visa decision waiting times: applications outside the UK: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/visa-decision-waiting-times-applications-outside-the-uk?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&utm_source=1280b93d-fae0-4cb7-aee1-cc076155b4c4&utm_content=immediately -

The decision in R (C1) v Secretary of State for the Home Department (Rev1) [2022] EWCA Civ 30 reverses the tentative conclusion of Mr Justice Jay last year. There is very little information about the anonymous appellant; the case seems to be national security related. C1 had indefinite leave to remain in the UK. He left the country in 2018 and went to Iran. While he was abroad, the Home Secretary personally ordered his ILR to be cancelled and C1 excluded from the UK. >>> UK Supreme Court upholds government’s right to set child citizenship fees as it chooses: https://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKSC/2022/3.html The Supreme Court has dismissed a challenge to the level at which the government has set the fees for children to register as British citizens. The court held that the government has been authorised by Parliament to set the level of the fees as it chooses. Currently, the fee is £1,012 for a child, which is simply unaffordable for many families. As a consequence, many children eligible for British citizenship because of their birth or residence never actually become citizens. The case is R (O (a minor)) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2022] UKSC 3, although it has often been referred to as “the PRCBC case” after the Project for the Registration of Children as British Citizens, which has led the work on it.

Employers (but not private individuals/households) will be able to sponsor care assistants, home carers, nursing home support workers and similar so long as they pay at least £20,480 (£10.10 an hour). They must also include a criminal record certificate. As the explanatory note accompanying HC 1019 puts it, “a key existing requirement of the Skilled Worker route is the job offer must be one which involves duties and responsibilities involving skills equivalent to RQF level 3, broadly equivalent to a level of skills obtained through A-levels or Scottish Highers”. The Skilled Worker rules are then being changed to allow people to be sponsored for shortage roles that are not skilled occupations. Paragraph SW 6.1 in Appendix Skilled Worker will read: "SW 6.1. The applicant must be sponsored for a job in an eligible occupation code listed in Appendix Skilled Occupations or Appendix Shortage Occupation List."

The case is R (Detention Action) v Lord Chancellor [2022] EWHC 18 (Admin).

18 January 2022 – Just useful and interesting UK & EEA Immigration Law news and updates from the Legal Centre – Open 7 days a week - www.legalcentre.org - +44(0)3300010342, +44(0)7791145923 (WhatsApp/Viber) >>> Inflexible biometrics policy for refugee family reunion declared unlawful: https://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKUT/IAC/2022/15.html In R (SGW) v Secretary of State for the Home Department (Biometrics , family reunion policy) [2022] UKUT 15 (IAC), the Upper Tribunal decided that Home Office guidance on refugee family reunion applications is unlawful because it fails to accurately describe the legal discretion in relation to providing biometric information. The case was about an Eritrean national with refugee status, SGW. His brother, FGW, is in Libya and wishes to join SGW in the UK. FGW had attempted to leave Libya by boat but had been intercepted, sent back to Libya and held in detention for nearly two years. He was assisted by the UN Refugee Agency which considered him to be a minor, secured his release and provided him with accommodation. FGW requested family reunification outside of the Immigration Rules. His solicitors asked for a waiver of the requirement for biometrics (photographs and fingerprints) to be given before the application could be considered. The Home Office refused and decided that the application was invalid for lack of biometrics. The official headnote "(1) The Immigration (Biometric Registration) Regulations 2008 (SI 2008/3048) (“the 2008 Regulations”) have the effect that where a person subject to immigration control makes (or purports to make) an application for entry clearance which has effect as leave to enter the United Kingdom for a limited period exceeding 6 months, and, at the same time, is required to apply for a biometric immigration document (“BID”), and where that person is required to provide biometric information but fails to do so, the application for a BID must be refused and the application for entry clearance must be treated as invalid. The 2008 Regulations themselves admit of no discretion in so far as non-compliance is concerned. In this way, the validity of an application for entry clearance based on family reunion (whether falling within or without the Rules) is contingent on legislative provisions relating first and foremost to a separate, but parallel, application, namely for a BID. (2) However, regulations 5 and 8 of the 2008 Regulations provide for discretion as to whether biometric information is required and, if it is, the manner of its enrolment. (3) The Immigration Rules are silent on the question of whether enrolment of biometrics goes to the validity of applications for entry clearance in general. The various Appendices to the Rules covering particular routes for entering the United Kingdom do link the validity of applications to the provision of required biometric information, but these do not include family reunion. (4) The Secretary of State’s current guidance on family reunion (“Family reunion: for refugees and those with humanitarian protection”, version 5.0, published on 31 December 2020) fails to confirm the existence of any discretion as to the provision of biometric information when a person makes an application for entry clearance, save in respect of children under 5 years of age. To this extent, the guidance is unlawful." >>> E-filing at the Upper Tribunal From the 17th January 2022 an online platform called CE-File or E-Filing can be used to send documents to the Upper Tribunal in appeals and non-urgent judicial review applications. >>> Coronavirus (COVID-19): advice for UK visa applicants and temporary UK residents: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-advice-for-uk-visa-applicants-and-temporary-uk-residents?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&utm_source=7661a973-51d9-4268-a330-358f5cd02c4e&utm_content=immediately In the chapter on ‘If you’re applying to enter the UK or remain on the basis of family or private life’, updated the ‘If you’re unable to provide specified documents’ section to extend the deadline to 31 March 2022.
