Итак: У меня еще вопрос по биометрии, в течении какого срока ее нужно сдать после подачи анкеты онлайн? - В течение 60-и дней Возможно ли забронировать день заранее и сдать, например, на следующий день после подачи или требуется - Нет. Заранее не возможно. Но можно взять слот чуть ли не в тот же день после подачи анкеты сначала получить какое-то подтверждение от Home Office? - Обычно не высылают теперь ничего, разве что после загрузки документов о том, что документы загружены Ситуация такая, что возможно нужно будет улететь на месяц после подачи, и думаю как лучше поступить - Вам сюда: https://www.legalcentre.org/Konsultacija-s-Advokatom.html

10 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) >>> Would it be possible to allow students in the UK on a short-term study visa the option of either switching to a student visa (as long as the course with a student sponsor starts within a defined period) or the flexibility of doing the same course with a different provider? In short, the answer is "NO". The Home Office's response: "Visitors may stay in the UK up to six months. Visitors may study up to six months at an accredited provider. Visitors must intend to leave the UK at the end of their visit, so cannot switch onto another immigration route, including the student route. Visitors are not linked to a particular sponsor, so they may change course during their stay, as long as the other conditions of their permission, including that it should be at an accredited institution, they do not work and stay no longer than six months, continue to be met. The Short-term Student (English Language) route is an unsponsored route for a person aged 16 and over who wants to study an English language course in the UK for between 6 and 11 months at an accredited institution. The applicant must intend to leave the UK within 30 days of the end of their English language course, or at the end of 11 months, whichever is sooner. A Short-term Student is not permitted to apply for another type of permission from within the UK; Students intending to study a further course within the UK must apply for the appropriate route from outside the UK." >>> The Home Office has stated that the High Potential routewill be open to “applicants who have graduated from a top global university”. So, what might that mean in practice? The Home Office's response: "The High Potential Individual route will be a highly selective visa for the most highly-skilled migrants to enter the UK, with an emphasis on those with strong academic achievements and high potential to help companies grow. We will publish further details around the requirements of the route in the New Year."

Как выглядит документ на возвращение в Великобританию (EUSS Travel Permit) если BRC потерян или закончился за рубежом ? Вот образец такого документа.

Когда-то давным-давно, лет 20 а то и более тому назад, наш Legal Centre - Private UK & EEA Immigration Lawyers and Advocates получил это уникальное удостоверение со статусом Home Office Highly Trusted Representative. Данное удостоверение позволяло подавать заявления клиентов лично в Home Office, общаться с сотрудниками Home Office лицом к лицу, регулярно участвовать в заседаниях с коллегами из Home Office - PEO Solihull по вопросам иммиграции и вносить посильный вклад в британскую иммиграционную систему. При необходимости можно было звонить коллегам и менеджеру Home Office - PEO Solihull напрямую. Иногда я просто заходил уточнить возможность подачи того или иного заявления клиента в сложных случаях. Суммарно за пару десятков лет подачи заявлений только в этом конкретном отделении Home Office я был так более 1000 раз. В определенные недели я был "на работе" в Home Office чаще чем в офисе нашего Legal Centre. Вот как выглядит это удостоверение оранжевого цвета. Было еще одно удостоверение, зеленого цвета. Самое первое и...уникальное - с грамматической ошибкой на нем. Антон Коваль Legal Centre

It also has wide-reaching implications for any categories not covered by Appendix Continuous Residence. It appears that any application made on the basis of completing a particular qualifying period will involve discounting any periods the applicant was without permission, even if those periods are protected by paragraph 39E. >>> Is there a "Grace Rules" in the UK immigration law ? Yes, there is one, called the Paragraph 39E (of the UK Immigration Rules). Meet the Paragraph 39E. It allows overstaying to be disregarded where an immigration application is lodged within 14 days of, among other things, the refusal of a previous application.

In this case, the court found that the remote hearing had not violated the applicant’s Article 6 (right to a fair hearing) or Article 8 (right to family life) ECHR rights. As always, though, it reached this conclusion on the basis of very fact-specific considerations.

20 December 2021 – 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) >>> New guidance on obstructing an immigration officer: The Home Office has issued new guidance to immigration enforcement officers, called simply Obstruction. This refers to the criminal offence of obstructing an immigration officer in section 26(1)(g) of the Immigration Act 1971, which can see activists prosecuted for interfering with raids. A crucial element of that offence, however, is that the officer be “acting in the execution of this Act” at the time they are obstructed. The guidance emphasises this several times. For example, the power to arrest someone for obstruction is confined to situations of “obstruction whilst acting in execution of the Act”. If they do arrest someone, "It is essential that officers’ records are accurate and clearly detail how they were in execution of the 1971 Act. Failure to do so could lead to the arrest being deemed unlawful and a court dismissing the case." By contrast, officers are advised that if they are obstructed “while not exercising any powers within the 1971 Act”, they should instead “consider the necessity to continue their deployment”. Likewise, the section on use of reasonable force in response to obstruction says: "section 146(1) of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 allows Immigration officers to use reasonable force where necessary when the Immigration officer is simultaneously exercising any power conferred on him by the “Immigration Acts”" Prosecutions are rare: just ten in England and Wales since 2013, along with a similar number of prosecutions for assaulting an immigration officer under section 22 of the UK Borders Act 2007.
