Administrative Review (AR)

Your immigration application may be subject to an administrative review (AR) if the Home Office or UKVI has rejected it.
Administrative Review (AR) Of Home Office, UKVI Refusal Decision

A review or reconsideration of your immigration application after the Home Office UKVI has rejected it is known as an Administrative Review (AR). A challenge to the denial of some immigration applications, known as eligible decisions, is only possible through Administrative Review (AR). You can ask the Home Office, UKVI to review the decision if you believe that the outcome of your application to remain in the UK or the decision to deny you entry to the UK at the border was incorrect.

Except in cases where your immigration application was rejected under the EU Settlement Scheme, in which case you may submit new or fresh evidence for the Home Office UKVI to take into account in an administrative review, this review will be conducted by a different UKVI official using the same documents and facts that you submitted with your initial immigration application.

You have the legal right to challenge the immigration decision further through Pre-Action Protocol (PAP) for Judicial Review (JR) Against Home Office UKVI and Judicial Review (JR) In The Upper Tribunal (UT) if the decision to refuse your immigration application is upheld following an Administrative Review (AR).

Admin Review (AR) Against Entry Clearance Application Rejection

Because of the Immigration Act of 2014, the Home Office and UKVI have abolished the ability to appeal the denial of some entry clearance requests submitted from outside the UK. The applicant in these situations has the option to appeal the entrance clearance application’s denial through Administrative Review (AR). A person who has received a “eligible decision” regarding an application for entrance clearance may submit an Administrative Review (AR) request. In the event that the entrance Clearance Officer (ECO) rejects your request for entrance clearance, the decision notice will include whether you are eligible to request an Administrative Review (AR) and how to do so.

The application must be submitted using the application form that will be included with the decision notice. If your application is rejected, you will either receive the administrative review application form with it or be asked to download it. The applicant will be instructed on how to submit an application in the decision notice. Currently, there is no cost associated with an overseas Administrative Review (AR). Entry Clearance Manager (ECM) will conduct the Administrative Review (AR). After receiving an entry clearance officer’s (ECO) letter denying your application, you have 28 days to file an administrative review (AR) of the decision.

The IHS will not be reimbursed if it was paid and the application was denied with a right of administrative review during the following times:

  • Administrative Review (AR) may be made in due course.
  • Administrative Review (AR) is being thought about.

An IHS will be returned for the years of leave that were not allowed if it has already been paid and the application has been approved, but for a lesser term than requested. The extra IHS is due if the migrant submits an Administrative Review (AR) application and receives an extension of leave as a result.

If the Home Office, UKVI, and Entry Clearance Manager (ECM) reject your request for an Administrative Review (AR), you have the option of pursuing a judicial review through the Pre-Action Protocol (PAP) for Judicial Review and judicial review in the Upper Tribunal (UT).

Administrative Review (AR) Of Applications Made Within The Country

The Home Office and UKVI have withdrawn the ability to an in-country appeal to the First Tier Tribunal against the denial of certain applications lodged from within the UK as a result of the Immigration Act of 2014. In certain situations, the applicant has the option to request an Administrative Review (AR) in opposition to the application’s denial. When receiving a refusal letter, applicants must submit an Administrative Review (AR) request to the Home Office, UK Visas & Immigration (UKVI) within 14 days (28 days if the refusal falls under the EU Settlement Scheme).

The decision notice will inform the applicant if they can request administrative review if the Home Office rejects an application involving an eligible decision. Additionally, applicants can request an administrative review if their application is approved but they believe the Home Office has granted immigration leave under the wrong circumstances, such as for the wrong duration.

Administrative Review applications are available online. The cost of an administrative review is £80. After receiving the UKVI denial letter, the administrative must be filed within 14 days (or 28 days if the refusal falls within the EU Settlement Scheme). The review will be conducted by a separate individual utilising the same information and materials that you submitted with your initial application. Your money for the Administrative Review (AR) will be reimbursed if the outcome of the review is that the Home Office reverses its initial decision and grants you permission to remain in the UK. Within 28 calendar days, a decision should be made. If they believe it will take longer, the Home Office and UKVI will write to you. While your request for an Administrative Review (AR) is being reviewed by the Home Office, UKVI, you cannot be expelled from the UK.
