Administrative Review Of ILR Refusal As A Victim Of Domestic Violence
You can apply for an Administrative Review of ILR refusal if your ILR application as a victim of domestic violence is refused by Home Office UKVI. It is very common for the Home Office to refuse ILR application as a victim of domestic violence on the grounds that the Home Office UKVI is not satisfied with the evidence of domestic violence which the applicant has submitted to the Home Office UKVI in support of his ILR application.
Administrative Review (AR) Of ILR Refusal As A Victim Of Domestic Violence
You can apply for Administrative Review Online. There is a fee of £80 for applying for an Administrative Review (AR). The Administrative Review (AR) must be filed within 14 days from the date of receipt of the UKVI refusal letter. The review of the refusal of your ILR application will be done by a different person, but using the same documents and facts sent with your original application. If the result of the Administrative Review (AR) is that the Home Office withdraws its original decision and grants you ILR as a victim of domestic violence, your fee paid for Administrative Review (AR) will be refunded. You should get a decision within 28 calendar days. The Home Office, UKVI will write to you if they think it will take longer. You cannot be removed from the UK whilst your request for Administrative Review (AR) is pending consideration with the Home Office, UKVI.
If the Home Office UKVI maintains its decision to refuse your application for ILR as a victim of domestic violence, you then have the option to file Pre Action Protocol (PAP) and Judicial Review (JR) against the refusal of your ILR application. In some cases, filing a fresh application as a victim of domestic violence may be more appropriate rather than challenging the refusal by way of Judicial Review (JR). It is also possible to file fresh application as well as Judicial Review (JR) against the refusal of ILR application as a victim of domestic violence.
