Misleading title!Points-based system appeals to be effectively abolished
That's why I titled it effectively abolished. As the post mentions, the costs and legal uncertainties involved in submitting a new application will dissuade many/most from taking that step.sushdmehta wrote:Misleading title!Points-based system appeals to be effectively abolished
For information, section 19, that the article refers to, does not remove the right of appeal as such .... but restricts applicants from introducing new evidence(s) in the appeal that were not part of the (initial) application.
Written ministerial statement on Section 19 of the UK Borders Act 2007From next Monday, evidence submitted after a visa application has been made will not be considered.
The Commencement Order will come into force on 23 May and will apply to all appeals heard for the first time against refusals of applications to remain in the UK under the Points Based System, regardless of the date that appeal was lodged. Appeals that have been part or fully-heard by the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) by this date will not be affected.
This is very alarming. I understand this currently apply to all PBS appeal.sushdmehta wrote:Unnecessary immigration appeals to endWritten ministerial statement on Section 19 of the UK Borders Act 2007From next Monday, evidence submitted after a visa application has been made will not be considered.The Commencement Order will come into force on 23 May and will apply to all appeals heard for the first time against refusals of applications to remain in the UK under the Points Based System, regardless of the date that appeal was lodged.

I can help to wonder and worry as how this may affect appeals of settlement visa particularly those application from out of the country?
There is a website spelling out TO THE LAST LETTER exactly what is required and what not, what is acceptable and what not; yet people should be called to say that the did not follow the instructions correctly? Why not just get applicants to apply correctly the first time using the instructions given?tier1help-london wrote:Well this is outrageous...
Dear Damian Green - Why cant you change your process and tell caseworkers to give a call to applicant if they're not satisified with the evidence. Give the applicant some time to submit new evidences to caseworker's satisfaction. An applicant paying £1000 - £2000 for his application atleast deserves a call.

It's not rocket science - you go onto a website, look at the requirements, check if you have everything and apply. You either do it right the first time, or don't do it at all...
