Question 1

What is Immigration law?

Accepted Answer

Immigration law in the UK covers the legal regulations and processes governing the entry, stay, and status of individuals in a country.

Key legislation includes the Immigration Act 1971, which outlines the foundation of immigration control, and the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999, addressing various aspects of immigration and asylum. The Immigration Rules provide detailed guidelines on visa categories, eligibility criteria, and application procedures.

An immigration solicitor provides legal advice on visa options, assists in preparing and submitting visa applications, and guides clients through appeals or administrative reviews if necessary. Immigration solicitors can also assist with asylum applications, human rights claims, and challenges to deportation orders. They stay abreast of changes in immigration law, ensuring clients are informed about the latest regulations that may affect their status.
