Frequently Asked Questions
What is a UKVI appeal?
Appealing a Home Office decision involves asking a court to review the evidence you’ve provided in order to make a new decision. When you receive your visa application decision, you’ll be told whether you have the right to appeal. If you don’t have the right to appeal, you may be able to request an administrative or judicial review instead.
What is an administrative review?
An administrative review is a legal process used to ask the Home Office to reconsider their decision with regards to your visa application. Your decision letter should tell you whether you can apply for an administrative review which may be requested if you believe any of the following:
- Financial evidence was calculated incorrectly
- There are factual errors in the decision letter including your personal details
- Parts of your application have been overlooked
- Important evidence has not been considered
What is a judicial review?
A judicial review is a legal process used to challenge the way a decision has been made, usually by the Home Office or a court. If you believe that your visa application was refused unlawfully, irrationally, or unfairly, you can apply for a judicial review of your case. This review process is incredibly complicated, so we strongly recommend seeking legal guidance before applying.
