In the February round up, Jasmine and Barry discuss the Home Office's new pilot for children's asylum claims and dig into the latest immigration statistics. They cover some crucial advice for clients, including what to do if you're refused entry at the UK border, whether you can apply for settlement early to avoid the new ‘earned settlement’ proposals and how to fight a bank account closure on immigration grounds.
There is also new Home Office guidance on EU Settlement Scheme derivative rights, trouble for dual nationals without British passports and yet more lawyers being caught out by fake AI-generated case law.
