Learn legal and practical elements of the legal framework of family reunion applications for family members of refugees and people with humanitarian protection status in the UK.
In this webinar we delve into the legal framework of family reunion applications for family members of refugees and people with humanitarian protection status in the UK. From understanding the eligibility criteria defined by Immigration Rules to navigating through the application process, we equip you with the knowledge needed to provide the best advice to clients seeking to reunify with UK based family members.
We explore the required evidence, procedural steps, funding considerations, and remedies in case of refusals.
Legal representatives should be aware of the practical hurdles accompanying such applications. We offer practical solutions to common challenges faced by applicants, such as where the journey to their biometrics appointment would be dangerous and where the applicant does not have a travel document.
Please note that while we comprehensively cover applications within the Immigration Rules, this webinar doesn’t address applications made outside the Rules, such as those for child sponsors and other relatives.
