Changes to appeals against immigration and asylum decisions

Post by geriatrix » Mon Dec 12, 2011 12:59 pm

Changes to appeals against immigration and asylum decisions from 19 December 2011
The Ministry of Justice will be introducing appeal fee charges for some asylum and immigration appeals from 19 December 2011.

People who want to appeal against a decision notice dated 19 December 2011 or later will need to pay a fee. The appeal fee will apply to most categories of visas and decisions. Any exemptions to the fees will be outlined by the Ministry of Justice. This will not affect any decision notices that are dated before 19 December.

Also, from 19 December people will need to lodge their appeals at the tribunal in the UK. We will no longer accept appeals at any of our overseas visa application centres.

Full guidance about the changes will be published on the Ministry of Justice website from 19 December 2011.

The First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) Fees Order 2011
Fees for appeals wrote:(3) The fee payable is—

(a)where the appellant consents to the appeal being determined without a hearing, £80; or
(b)where the appellant does not consent to the appeal being determined without a hearing, £140.
Tribunal Procedure (Amendment) (No.2) Rules 2011 amends the procedure rules including to strike out provisions where fees are not paid, for the tribunal to award the cost of the fee, and to end lodging of appeals with ECOs (i.e. - at overseas British diplomatic posts).
