And at this stage noone can describe an IO doing their job as committing an unlawful act.
Despite shrill cries of
outrage no such hard evidence has been presented.
The OP has only just shared the fact he has been issued with IS96, a multi-purpose document, actually issued
instead of detaining someone.
My initial posts were made
before that brief information was shared.
as i posted earlier IS96 doesnt meant Leave has been curtailed..
All OP initially posted was he has had an interview arranged for a later date because he/family were too tired to be interviewed on the day when stopped at the airport.
So a no-doubt equally weary IO showed some compassion and spared the family further delay after a tiring day.
No sign of victimisation so far.
When i discuss with lawyers they said they couldnt find anything against you at that time otherwise they would have deported you at time and they just made an excuse for the family to let me go . as per laqyers comments they can provide all facilities if and not allowing into the country.
It is also clear OP's answers did not satisfy IO and a defensive attitude (plus inability to answer legitimate and simple business-related questions) set IO's
spidey senses tingling.
The OP has done himself no favours here.
I answered everything he asked except that Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 NI and i replied this is accountant work and he does all these for me i am not an accountant..
A JR is those circumstances would be silly, rather than addressing the issue at hand.
T1 visa holders are under immigration control. Face it - its a fact.
Just as any guest worker in any country I can think of would be - and I have been one myself (as well as a small business owner).
The mere fact of holding a T1 visa and investing in UK plc (as per visa requirements) and of paying tax to HMRC (as obliged) does not buy immunity or special treatment in any shape or form - why should it?!
T1 visas are on record as being much abused too - as evidenced by the recent MAC report on future of T1.
So the issue of a visa should not be treated as a
carte blanche.
It is still not clear whether PAP, JR and a bunch of barristers would be proportionate or not because
OP has still not intimated the reasons for curtailment
Nor whether he is now prohibited from working.
It may be prudent to get a lawyer to check that rather than drafting a PAP.
I am not prohibited from working , he told me while i was being given that letter IS96
So up to now noone can judge that an IO is operating beyond his powers.
After all an IO is not a one-man band (as a T1 business typically is); all critical decisions are vetted and endorsed by CEOs and HEOs up the chain of command as per strict protocol.
And noone should advise T1s not to travel. Many do. Some are questioned (as all travellers can expect to be).
Just as my family have been questioned in the past even when they had ILR.
Even as I have been questioned in US when travelling on a British passport.
Only a small number of T1s report issues such as this.
But a knee-jerk PAP and JR and automatic cries of "
outrage!" are symptomatic of a legalistic and unassimilated mindset.
Going into denial and 'hiding' from an interview could make matters worse.
But we are thinking if they pressurise and threaten me in interview as he was trying to do on other day. thats why we are thingking to send them a letter before going to interview. Not hiding from interview anyway but before going to interview want to take any step but neither PAP nor JR.
And if anyone is unclear of the rights and powers of IOs then suggest look them up:

(as well keeping abreast of the subleties and nuances of UK NI classes, rates and categories).
Did you get your BRP back ?
