More worrying evidence of over-zealous deportations has been unearthed by the Independent newspaper. They report that the Home Office deported a man, despite a court order ruling it illegal, before flying him back to the UK hours later. https://t.co/l1jdWufFhz

The New Year immigration landscape
The general election is over, the Conservatives won, Christmas has come and gone and Brexit is going to happen. So where does that leave us as far as immigration is concerned?
First of all, nothing changes immediately: however, the large Conservative majority in the House of Commons does means the government will have no problem doing what it wants. And it wants to reduce immigration, albeit by an unspecified amount.
How easy is it for my child to study at a school in the UK?
September 10, 2019 by Arta Heath
There are nearly 29,000 non-UK students studying at independent (fee paying schools) in the UK. They will have got there by successfully applying for a Tier 4 (Child) Student Visa. The key thing to remember with this type of visa is that you need to have applied to a school and been offered a place before the visa can be granted. The school offering the place must be the registered holder of a sponsorship licence. It is also possible for parents to travel with their child and live in the UK for the duration of their studies: but they have to apply separately for a Parent of a Tier 4 Child Visa.
How easy is it to bring domestic staff with you to the UK?
September 5, 2019 by Arta Heath
There is provision within UK immigration rules for people to bring domestic staff with them if they plan to visit the UK for up to six months at a time. This is called a Domestic Workers in a Private Household visa and typically covers roles such as cooks, chauffeurs, cleaners, nannies and carers. As with any visa application in the UK, it is vitally important to meticulously prepare the paperwork for a successful application. In particular, applicants need to show that the individual is correctly employed under the laws of the country of residence and that they intend to come to UK only as part of the family to continue to fulfil their duties.
