Your Tier 1 visa is still valid as already stated.
Quite frankly the IO who dealt with you on the
control needs re-training,all he/she needed to do
was grant you entry on your tier 1 visa which would
have been perfectly satisfactory for you to proceed to Ireland.

The UK Border Agency Employee Codes are specific for the employees and thus you can easily get the employee who had stamped the documents. This would help to minimize the amount of time required to track down what has happened. Almost but not quite. The numbers are actually stamp numbers which are ...

Was he deported or administratively removed?
There is a difference and depending on which
this would determine how you need to proceed.

So which was it.

Mrs Turner Broadly speaking the advice you have been given is correct. However, due to your previous adverse immigration history you will almost certainly be flagged up as a person of interest when you present your passport, be it Belgian or American. However, rest assured that you will not be refus...

A deportation order signed by the secretary of state will have to meet the Public Policy requirement, for it to continue to hold. Assuming the DO was not issued under the Public Policy requirement, the OP can come to the UK, without applying for it to be receded. That may well be, but if he turns u...

Even if his wife hasn't contacted the UKBA and nothing has been done to his visa, he can still be in trouble if at the airport they start asking him questions since the reason he was given visa for, is not there anymore. How would they know that if nobody has told UKBA.? If questioned on arrival he...

You sure he is telling you the complete truth. I find it a bit odd that he would be sent to Nigeria simply because the UKBA "thought or suspected" he was Nigerian. If he didn't have a valid Nigerian passport, an emergency travel document would have had to be obtained from the Nigerian aut...

If you are leaving the UK, production of the documents you mention should satisfy any enquiry as to why you have a new passport with no endorsement. If you don't require a visa to travel to the UK, the worst the airline can do is make you buy a return ticket. On arrival in the UK, you could be held...

Since the introduction of the PBS there is now no longer any requirement for students to leave the UK at the end of their studies.

All students in the UK are able, at the conclusion of their studies, to apply under T1 for the post study worker category.

Hi I'm wondering what my rights are if I get stopped by UKBA agents on my way out of the tube, say. Since I don't carry my passport with me, I have no evidence of my immigration status with me. Could one be detained for that? Also, if they ask to check my fingerprints do I have the right to refuse?...

Meats Because he is a non-visa national does not mean he is not subject to immigration control. IOs have the power to question all passengers subject to immigration control about the reason for their visit. The depth and length of questioning would normally depend on the person in front of the IO t...

@Insider He came for 2 weeks in April. Also is it true that you have to wait 1 year after being refused to try to re-enter the country? Thanks everyone, sorry for sounding so grumpy and negative earlier- it just gets me down sometimes ;-( Not true, unless it is specifically mentioned on the refusal...

Tashie, You should of course bear in mind that your boyfriend does not actually have a right of appeal against the decision of the IO to refuse him entry.S88/89 applies. His appeal will be confined to either a Human rights allegation that they have been breached in some way or a claim under the race...

my thoughts exactly.

She would stand a very high risk of being refused entry as a visitor unless you can convince the IO that it is absolutely her intention to return to her country of origin at the end of the visit and there is no plan to do anything other than visit while she is here. Personally my advice would be to ...

Highly unlikely you would be granted a visa from France, unless you hold resident status there and are not just visiting.

A letter from her college dean confirming the fact she is a registered student and still has courses to attend would go a long way in confirming her student status.

In answer to question two you can choose whichever queue you like to go through, and that includes the EU queue. Just make sure she has fully completed the landing card. In answer to question three, write a letter to the AIT formally withdrawing your appeal. Ensure you quote your case number. Congra...

Wanderer, Obie has explained it to perfection. I hope it is clear. Oh, and I didn't consider you were being stroppy in the least. jdc3261, I'd really suggest you find out for sure whether or not your kids are British prior to incurring wasted costs and time in taking them back to Canada when this mi...

So what stops them asking any questions over the phone?

By virtue of the fact that their father is British your kids may well be British citizens. In which case there would be no need for them to return to Canada with you to apply for an EC. Whether they qualify for British nationality or not would depend on several factors, eg where dad was born, dates...
