Problem: Tier 1 Entrepreneur Further Extension Refusal, Administrative Review Rejection; Successful Judicial Review Resulting in Visa Approval and Award of Legal Costs
Outcome: Visa granted through successful Judicial Review, including an award of legal costs against Home Office.
Our immigration lawyers recently took on a challenging case from another firm involving a client whose Tier 1 Entrepreneur further extension was refused, and the subsequent administrative review was also rejected. Undeterred by these setbacks, we pursued a Judicial Review to challenge the decisions and secure a positive outcome for our client.
Upon careful examination of the case, our lawyers identified legal flaws and procedural errors in the decision-making process. We initiated the Judicial Review process, arguing that the initial refusal and the administrative review rejection were not in accordance with the law and failed to consider crucial aspects of the client’s application.
Through meticulous preparation and legal argumentation, we presented a strong case during the Judicial Review proceedings, emphasising the client’s compliance with immigration rules and addressing the shortcomings in the Home Office’s decision-making process.
The Judicial Review proved successful, leading to the overturning of the Tier 1 Entrepreneur extension refusal. As a result, our client was granted the desired visa extension, allowing them to continue their entrepreneurial activities in the UK.
Furthermore, recognising the merit of the Judicial Review and the unjust refusals, the court awarded legal costs to our client. This outcome not only provided the client with a favourable immigration status but also alleviated the financial burden associated with the legal proceedings.
