The proposed ‘Independent Immigration Appeals Authority’: Key features and the need for immigration appeals to continue to be decided by legally qualified persons

The proposed ‘Independent Immigration Appeals Authority’:  Key features and the need for immigration appeals to continue to be decided by legally qualified persons

The immigration status-based civil penalty employment scheme is to be extended beyond employment cases to other work characterised as self-employment. Businesses securing services from individuals by way of sub-contracting, agency work, or in the gig economy need to be prepared.

Immigration Civil Penalty Employment Scheme to be extended to Sub-contractors, Agency Workers and the Gig Economy (Border Security, Immigration and Asylum Bill 2025)

The Windrush generation who came to the UK as children prior to 1 January 1973 often have problems proving their UK arrival, and thereafter status prior to that date, when seeking to regularise their status in the UK or when seeking compensation under the Windrush Compensation Scheme for ill-treatment at the hands of the Home Office. Some of these problems are specific to their status as minor children on arrival and thereafter when in-country. As such, they deserve discrete consideration. The most problem important is tracing status against the development of UK immigration control of Commonwealth citizens from 1962 onwards.

Entry, Settlement, and Citizenship in the Illegal Migration Bill

The past was a different place. People did things differently. Even the Home Secretary. That matters when members of the Windrush generation seek to regularise their status or seek compensation for past wrongs. There is a common mistake at large that when a person left the UK for more than two years, their indefinite leave lapsed. That might be true today but it was not always true in the past.
