This decision is helpful confirmation that time spent in the UK on a visit visa can count towards ten years’ continuous lawful residence. It is also an excellent reminder that the relevant ten-year period does not have to immediately precede the settlement application. That is, if a person had acquired a lawful 10-year residence in the say, say, between 2001 and 2011, and then became an overstayer, the period between 2001 and 2011 in the above example may be counted as lawful residence towards ILR (Indefinite Leave to Remain) on the basis of the Long Residence (10 years). >>> Home Office refuses to explain secret sham marriage algorithm The Home Office has rebuffed Public Law Project’s (PLP) the latest attempt to find out more about the secret algorithmic criteria used to decide whether a proposed marriage should be investigated as a “sham”. Sham marriage investigations can be invasive and unpleasant, and it appears that they are targeted at some nationalities more than others. PLP is concerned about the lack of transparency and possible discrimination involved in the automated triage system. >>> Transit stops in amber or red list countries On arrival into England, rules for the highest risk country or territory that you have been in or passed through in the previous 10 days must be observed. This includes transit stops. A transit stop is where passengers can get on or off the same part of the transport in which you are travelling. It can apply to ships, trains or flights. >>> Biometrics Enrolment at the Post Office From 31 July 2021, applicants will no longer be directed to use the Post Office to enrol biometrics as part of an immigration application or immigration application related process. Where biometric enrolment is required as part of an immigration process, applicants will be directed to one of the 7 Service Support Centres (SSCs) or 44 UK Visa and Citizenship Application Service (UKVCAS) across the UK. The majority of applicants will be able to complete their visa or citizenship application at a UK Visa and Citizenship Application Service centre. However, for applicants who require more support and face to face interaction with UKVI staff, appointments can be made at a Service and Support Centre. For those applicants who may have higher needs or be in a position of vulnerability, there will be enhanced support; to allow any appropriate safeguarding action to be taken through a range of travel assistance and mobile services. Applicants have already benefited from being directed to SSC and UKVCAS prior to the 31 July 2021 due to the phasing out of the Post Office biometric services. >>> Judicial Review Bill to abolish most Cart cases: https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/3035/publications The Judicial Review and Courts Bill 2021, published recently, will mostly abolish the right of migrants to apply to the High Court to have an appeal reopened if rejected by both chambers of the immigration tribunal. This is the process, well known to lawyers, known as a Cart or Eba judicial review. Clause 2(2) of the Bill says that a decision of the Upper Tribunal to refuse to hear an appeal from the First-tier Tribunal is “final, and not liable to be questioned or set aside in any other court”.

To enable skilled displaced people who have had to flee their homes to come to the UK safely and legally through established routes. We will work with the charity Talent Beyond Boundaries and other partners on this pilot project. [Priti Patel, 19 July 2021]" What is the displaced talent mobility pilot? The scheme is designed to facilitate UK work permit applications by skilled refugees and displaced people from Jordan and Lebanon ONLY at this time. The policy connection is clear: ministers had promised safe and legal routes for people in need, and this is a safe and legal way for those people to come to the UK. That said, it is not a new form of refugee status. It is better understood as a tailored version of the Skilled Worker visa, to exist alongside the asylum system as a complementary pathway. The precise details of the pilot are not yet known, but the broad structure should be familiar. As a starting point, we anticipate that: - Displaced people will need a job offer from a licensed sponsor - They will need to meet the usual minimum salary level - The English language requirement must also be met - The visa will last for five years and lead to settlement - It will be possible to change employers once in the UK - Eligible family members will be able to come too Crucially, the pilot is not aimed at lowering existing eligibility criteria. Rather, it recognises that the rigorous documentary requirements and administrative processes of the existing work permit rules can inadvertently discriminate against displaced people and that that discrimination needs to be removed. How employers can hire refugees from abroad First, employers must identify their preferred candidate. Businesses can find 26,000 highly qualified displaced people with skills in sectors such as health, digital technology, education, legal, construction, engineering (and more) in Talent Beyond Boundaries’ talent catalogue. More details on the catalogue and how to work with Talent Beyond Boundaries are available at https://www.talentbeyondboundaries.org/for-employers Secondly, once that candidate is identified, Talent Beyond Boundaries and their partners such as the International Organization for Migration can help with the logistics of job interviews (which aren’t easy if your refugee camp only has intermittent electricity and WiFi.) Thirdly, once the job offer has been made and accepted, Talent Beyond Boundaries work with the sponsoring employer and the applicant to prepare and file the visa application. The UK authorities will expedite the processing of the application, typically deciding them within five working days where feasible. Help without charity Although charities will assist with the overall process, it is important to stress that this recruitment is not charitable. Potential applicants are very skilled, eminently qualified and with a wealth of experience, all of which means they have a huge amount to contribute to the UK economy. The pilot is aimed at enabling that contribution and normalising displaced talent mobility. This will establish ease of access to a whole new labour market for UK businesses, and help skilled displaced people rebuild their lives in a new home. Both Australia and Canada are proof that pilots like that can work. The fact that the UK is joining their number with a new complementary pathway is a positive step that will hopefully encourage other countries to do the same.

Хочу поделиться хорошей новостью. Вчера клиентка с Украины получила визу по категории Sole Representative of an Overseas Business (Единственные Представитель Зарубежной Компании). Заявление подавалось вне правил, и шансы на успех были минимальные. Мне фактически пришлось "временно" модифицировать соответствующие иммиграционные правила чтобы клиентка смогла подать заявление. Например, так, нужно было подать нотариально замеренное письмо от работодателя где должно было быть подтверждение о том, что клиентка откроет филиал фирмы я писал что она не будет его открывать и т.п. То есть фактически приходилось "белое" называть "черным". На это были свои обстоятельства. Кому интересно - может посмотреть один из предыдущих постов по этой теме. В сопроводительном письме пришлось объяснить, разумеется, причины для этого, опираясь на очень редкие и даже не иммиграционные судебные прецеденты, ЛОГИКУ и принцип преемственности законов.

The claimants have been granted permission to argue that there is an unlawful failure to ensure the availability of a sufficient number of free applications for applicants, in particular recognised refugees, to enrol their biometrics without payment of a fee.The Legal Centre has contributed to the claim and confirms that indeed there has been very few biometric appointments available since Sopra Steria has been running the biometrics franchise, granted by the Home Office.>>> Whats IS the date of the UK Immigration application ?From the current UK Immigration Rules, para 34G:https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-part-1-leave-to-enter-or-stay-in-the-uk#date-an-application-or-variation-of-an-application-for-leave-to-remain-is-made"34G.

A: Whilst the Tier 1 (Investor) route allows switching into the route, it does not allow for time spent in other routes to count toward settlement. Given this, the decision was taken not to amend the switching requirements as part of the December Rules changes and consider these as part of the wider simplification programme Are Skilled Workers able unable to start working for their employers before their applications are approved ? Q: Is there any scope to enable those who submit in-time Skilled Worker applications to start work prior to decision? A: We allowed workers to start while waiting for a decision as part of one of the many covid concessions,we have no plans to reintroduce this. There is an exception for Students, who have a long-standing rule allowing them to do this, but not for other routes Exceptional Assurance Will the concession be extended further (for those who intend to leave the UK but have not been able to do so and have a visa or leave that expires soon but after 30 June 2021)? A: The concession will not be extended in its current form but will be open to those nations on the amber and red list. Q: Submitting in-country applications where normally need to apply from overseas - again, concession currently only applies to those with leave/EA expiring on or before 30 June 2021 – any plans to extend the concession on this ? A: All Covid-19 policy concessions are kept under regular review, and our content on GOV.UK is updated regularly as and when concessions change. Concessions on switching were introduced at a point when international travel was severely limited in the early stages of the pandemic, and it would not have been reasonable to expect those in the UK on a route where switching would not normally be permitted to have anticipated difficulties around returning overseas to make a further application.It is a condition of someone’s permission as a visitor to intend to leave the UK at the end of their visit, and travelling to the UK under that route with the intention to switch into a different route when it would have been possible to make an initial application overseas is not permitted. Exceptional assurance provides those who are genuinely unable to leave the UK with protection against enforcement action and allows them to continue carrying out activity permitted by their previous form of leave. EA has been extended further and exists to protect those who find themselves unable to travel. Further information is provided in the link above.It is open to applicants to provide information on any extenuating circumstances when making an application in the UK for further leave. Information is also available on gov.uk under the heading: if you’re applying to enter UK or remain on the basis of family or private life” Individuals marrying in the UK Q: Will there be a policy update on the issues raised previously concerning those who wish to marry in the UK but have been unable to do so ? A: Fiancée or proposed civil partner applicants who have been unable to marry in the UK, within their allocated 6 month period, as a result of Covid-19 restrictions can still rely on exceptional assurance provisions until 30 June 2021. Those applicants who need to rely on the provisions must apply before the 30 June and the assurance will then be guaranteed until 31 October 2021, in order for them to complete their ceremony.As wedding ceremonies have now been permitted within all regions of the UK, this has been deemed a sensible timeframe for applicants to complete their ceremony. However, we will continue to review this matter and may make further changes in the future should they prove necessary. The current family Immigration Rules also allow a fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner to apply for an extension of leave if there is good reason for their wedding or civil partnership not taking place during the initial six-month period of leave to enter. Cancellation of a wedding due to COVID-19 will be considered a good reason under this policy. Applicants are still required to pay the application fee and charges.

Home Secretary Priti Patel must bring back to the UK an asylum seeker who arrived via a small boat and was later deported to France within 14 days, a High Court judge has ruled. The court heard that the alleged victim of modern slavery and torture was deported due to an "illegal and secret" Home Office policy and should be brought back. This comes as Ms Patel's Nationality and Borders Bill, which could make it a criminal offence to knowingly arrive in the UK without permission, was introduced to Parliament on Tuesday. The 38-year-old Sudanese man, who can only be identified by the initials AA, made an asylum claim in the UK in June 2020 after fleeing to Europe due to torture and persecution in Sudan. The man said he was later enslaved and tortured in Libya while travelling to France, where his asylum claim was first rejected. After he then arrived in the UK, AA had a screening interview with immigration officials who are legally required to take steps to identify potential victims and refer "any suspicion" of slavery or human trafficking for investigation. However, AA's screening interview did not identify him as a potential victim of modern slavery and he was deported back to France, where he was homeless and destitute, the court heard. At the time of his interview, the Home Office had a published policy to ask two questions designed to determine if someone has been the victim of modern slavery. AA argued that the Home Office also had a secret and unlawful policy to not ask those questions, which would have led to him being identified as a victim. Mr Justice Wall said: "Had the claimant been identified as a potential victim of modern slavery, he could not have been removed from the United Kingdom until the process of investigating that issue was complete. "He would also have been entitled to assistance and support while in this country... However, the failure to refer him led to a removal of the claimant to France. It ended this country's responsibility for him." If AA has not been brought back to the UK within 14 days, the Home Office will have to explain the reasons why and what has been done to the court. A spokesman for the Home Office said: “This is a disappointing judgment and we are now considering our next steps. “This does not impact on our right to remove those who are confirmed to have no right to be in the UK."
