HSMP Forum judicial review: arrangements resulting from the judgment of 6 April 2009
20 May 2009
The UK Border Agency has put arrangements in place for migrants covered by the judgment of 6 April 2009 in the judicial review brought by the HSMP Forum Ltd.
The judgment relates to the 'continuous residence' requirement for migrants who want to settle (or be given 'indefinite leave to remain') in the United Kingdom. It covers migrants who were sent a Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP) approval letter on the basis of applications made before 3 April 2006, and who obtained entry clearance or permission to stay in the United Kingdom (also called 'leave to remain') on the basis of that letter.
The arrangements are set out in a policy document and in the HSMP Forum judicial review (settlement in the United Kingdom) section of this website.
