Skilled Worker Permission: Faster Cancellation by the Home Office

The Home Office appears to be taking faster action to cancel Skilled Worker permission following the end of sponsored employment.

Previously, there could be a significant delay between a sponsor reporting the end of employment and the Home Office taking action. In some cases, the delay lasted several months.

That position appears to be changing.

Recent cases indicate that cancellation action can now occur much sooner following an end-of-sponsorship report.

For Skilled Workers and sponsors, this highlights the importance of acting quickly when sponsored employment ends.

If your employment has ended, you may need to consider your immigration options before your permission is cancelled.

Immigration compliance is becoming increasingly important.

Set (P) Applications – Important Clarification.

Again and again, I am seeing Graduate Visa holders applying for Set (P) when they do not meet the eligibility requirements.

Set (P) is for applicants who have completed the relevant period on refugee leave. It is not an application for applicants who are simply waiting for a cos or looking for an alternative immigration route.

If you do not meet the eligibility requirements for Set (P), do not apply under this route. Submitting an application when you do not qualify can have serious immigration consequences.

If you are unsure whether Set (P) applies to your circumstances, seek advice from a qualified immigration solicitor before making an application.

What does FLR mean?

FLR stands for Further Leave to Remain — but what does it actually mean for your UK immigration status?

If you’re already in the UK and need to extend your permission to stay, you may need to make an FLR application.

There are different routes depending on your circumstances, including:

FLR(M) – partners
FLR(FP) – family or private life
FLR(HRO) – certain human rights claims

Choosing the correct application route is crucial. Using the wrong route could result in your application being refused.

Immigration is like a game of chess: one wrong move can have serious consequences for your journey.

Unregulated immigration advisers can put your application and future at risk. Always make sure you seek advice from a regulated SRA-regulated solicitor or an IAA-regulated adviser.

Advised NOT to Attend Biometrics? Think Again

Failing to attend your biometrics appointment can result in your application being invalidated. Depending on your circumstances, this could also leave you at risk of becoming an overstayer and potentially losing your right to work in the UK.

Make sure you understand the potential consequences before deciding not to attend your biometrics appointment.

EU Settlement Scheme: who is it actually for? I often come across this misconception: being Asian does not mean you need to apply for the EU Settlement Scheme.

The EUSS is generally for eligible EU, EEA and Swiss citizens and certain eligible family members, who were living in the UK by 31 December 2020.

So, if someone has told you to apply simply because you are Asian, that is not a correct basis for applying.

Immigration rules can be complicated and eligibility depends on your individual circumstances. Don’t rely on assumptions. Get proper legal advice if you’re unsure.

Save this video and share it with someone who needs to know.

Has your child received a Home Office letter asking them to leave the UK? The Home Office must consider the best interests of the child under Section 55 and may also need to consider right to family and private life under Article 8.

If your child is integrated in the UK or attending school here, your case may need individual legal assessment.

Don’t ignore the letter. Get legal advice.

Accused of Theft at Work — Can You Be Fired?

Not necessarily. If you have been accused of theft at work, your employer should generally carry out a fair investigation, give you a reasonable opportunity to respond promptly and follow the appropriate disciplinary procedure before deciding on any outcome.

Being accused of theft does not automatically mean you will be dismissed.

If you are facing a workplace investigation or disciplinary process, obtaining legal advice at an early stage can help you understand your rights and options.
