Family & Private Life Applications

What Are the Eligibility Requirements for making an application under Human Rights?
Everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence.

There shall be no interference by a public authority with the exercise of this right, except in accordance with the law and is necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security, public safety or the economic well-being of the country, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others.

Individuals have a right to a private and family life that is free from state interference. If a private or family life has been established in the UK and a refusal or removal of the person will be breach that person’s private or family life, please seek the appropriate immigration law services.

Many applications are made by families wishing to remain in the UK, under Article 8 as they have established their family and private life in the UK. Removal of the applicant after the refusal would breach of that applicant’s right to family and private life.

This is because under the most immigration applications there is usually no right of appeal except under human rights grounds.
