Immigration Appeal, Bail and Administrative Review

Any applicant can challenge the decision of the Home Office/ Entry Clearance Officer to refuse the application for permission to stay or enter in the UK by way of an appeal to the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber), if the decision attracted a right to appeal to the First-tier Tribunal.

At Visa Expert, we can assist you in your appeal from the beginning until the end. Our work will include:


  • Initially, we will consider the contents of the refusal letter, assess the prospects of success and advise you accordingly.
  • We will prepare the grounds in support of the appeal and lodge the appeal in the First-tier Tribunal on your behalf.
  • We will consider the contents of the Respondent’s bundle and discuss the same with you.
  • We will prepare any witness statements for any witnesses who will give evidence in the Tribunal.
  • We will prepare the bundles and serve on all relevant parties.
  • We will instruct an experienced and highly skilled Barrister to represent you in the Tribunal.
  • We will discuss the First-tier Tribunal decision with you thoroughly and advise you accordingly.
  • We will make a permission application to the First-tier Tribunal on your behalf if the First-tier Tribunal dismiss your appeal and there is an error of law.
  • We will prepare the bundles and instruct an experienced and highly skilled Barrister to represent you in the Upper Tribunal if the permission will be granted by the First-tier Tribunal.
  • We will further make a permission application to Upper Tribunal on your behalf if the First-tier Tribunal refuses to grant permission to appeal if there is an error of law.
  • We will further prepare the bundles and instruct an experienced and highly skilled Barrister to represent you in the Upper Tribunal if the permission will be granted by the Upper Tribunal.

Freedom from arbitrary arrest and imprisonment is a fundamental human right, legally enforceable throughout the UK by virtue of the Human Rights Act 1998. 

If you have detained or you know someone who has been detained, then please contact us. We will assist you and do our best to release you from detention as soon as possible. Our work may include: 


  • In the first place, we will request the Home Office to release the detainee on Temporary Admission (TA) depending on individual circumstances. 
  • If the Home refuse to release the detainee on TA, then we, upon the detainee instructions, will lodge an application for Immigration Judge’s bail. 
  • We will speak to the sureties and explain them their role in the detainee’s release from detention. 
  • We will prepare the bail bundle and send to all relevant parties.
  • We will instruct an experienced and highly skilled Barrister to represent you in the Tribunal.
  • We will explain you the further options open to detainee if the Immigration Judge refuse to release the detainee on bail.

The Administrative Review is a request  for the refusal to be reconsidered on the grounds that Home Office caseworker/ Entry Clearance Officer has made a caseworking error in reaching a decision on the application. The Administrative Review right is attracted by those refusals who do not attract the right to appeal to the First-tier Tribunal.

At Visa Expert, we can assist you if your refusal has not attracted the right to appeal and you have been granted an Administrative review. Our work will include:


  • Initially, we will consider the contents of the refusal letter, assess the prospects of success and advise you accordingly.
  • We will prepare grounds of the Administrative Review request and submit the Administrative Review Request to the relevant authorities on your behalf.
  • We will discuss the decision with you thoroughly and advise you accordingly.

If you wish to submit a Administrative Review Request and need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
