New changes to immigration rules

Post by JulietSoul » Fri Oct 12, 2018 2:06 pm

The Home Office released many changes to immigration rules yesterday. More info here:
Free Movement Blog Entry and here Rules text

It appears that for visa applications after November 1st, even if an applicant's passport is returned, leaving the UK will count as withdrawing the application! I would like to think this is not true and that I misunderstood something but I don't think I did.
On a positive note, original documents will no longer be required (other than passport I support) and copies will suffice.

Would appreciate some comment on this, if anyone thinks maybe I misunderstood... Thanks!
