Self-employment for Turkish illegal entrants/overstayers

[jimquk]

Interesting article from a Turkish paper in London:

It says that

THE European Court of Justice has ruled in favour of two Turkish nationals who were refused Ankara Agreement visas by the Home Office because they were failed asylum seekers.

It seems that even if a Turkish citizen wouldn't be eligible for such a visa on entry, if they can subsequently establish themselves in self-employment they can apply to remain.

Hi Jim - I imagine this is the Dari and Tum case, which has been wending its way through the High Court and Court of Appeal. I'll have a read, and post later.
