General Grounds of Refusal - HC 321

The provisions of HC 321 of the current immigration rules severely punish people who have breached any of the UK immigration rules by imposing a mandatory period of exclusion from the UK ranging from 1 – 10 years.

Examples of breaches are:
  • Overstay your visa in the UK by more than 28 days

  • Entering the UK illegally

  • Using deception in an immigration application (e.g. submitting false documents)

  • Holding a document to which you are not legally entitled (e.g. fake passport)

  • Breaching a condition of stay while in the UK (e.g. a student working in excess of the permitted 20 hours)

  • Working in breach of your visa conditions

If you have breached any conditions attached to your status or submitted false documentation to a British Consulate or the Home Office and now wish to resolve your immigration matters contact us to discuss the options available to you.
