New Immigration Bill introduced
Posted: Sun Oct 13, 2013 10:40 pm
Key aspects of the Immigration Bill:
(i) make millions of private landlords check tenants’ immigration status with fines of £3,000 for non-compliance – in turn, landlords are concerned whether they know enough about checking identity documents
(ii) make people such as students to contribute £200 to the NHS
(iii) make banks run checks against an immigration offender datebase before opening bank accounts
(iv) give more powers for checking the immigration status of driving licence applicants and revoking over stayers’ licences
(vi) use a policy of deport first, appeal later in cases where there is no serious irreversible harm.
Any impact on ILR on any category including long residence?
