    Visit Visas: Making Successful Applications Webinar 28 March 2023 at 1pm.

    Over recent years the quality of visit visa refusals has continued to go down and the lack of an effective remedy is often frustrating to clients and practitioners alike.

    In this free 1 hour webinar, Adam Pipe of No.8 Chambers, will look at best practice in preparing visit visa applications and look at practical ways to challenge refusals.

    Adam will consider the Immigration Rules, the Home Office policies and dust off some old visit visa case law which will be a useful weapon in every practitioner’s arsenal.

    Adam will also consider human rights in visit visa applications and human rights appeals.

    The webinar will touch upon challenging refusals on deception / non disclosure grounds which often lead to re-entry bans.

    Hopefully this webinar will help break the cycle of Groundhog Day poor visit refusals!
