Some three years after the radical rewriting of the Immigration Rules for families in 2012, the Supreme Court has granted permission to appeal in two important cases, SS (Congo) [2015] EWCA Civ 387 and Agyarko [2015] EWCA Civ 440. SS (Congo) is reported to be linked with the MM case on the minimum income requirement for spouses but I am not sure about Agyarko.
Hearing for SS (Congo) to be combined with #MMcase on 22nd-24th Feb. All of a sudden,three days does not seem enough https://t.co/nufDrCFbMl
