"When I started the processes with Ikra, I remembered the tortoise and hare story by Aesop, so slowly they are progressing my application. Despite my request to speed up the processes, my application still does not accelerate. After two weeks of documentation and drafting the application, they submitted it to HMRC for decision. Ikra's much appreciated work has resulted in a decision from HMRC being made in less than 24 hours. Though the hare ran fast, the winner was the tortoise. Ikra is the winner on my application, just like the tortoise. I am grateful for your excellent and helpful assistance."
"Many thanks for your excellent work on my behalf. You were so thorough, persistent, and transparent. God Bless you"

Though the Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa is no longer a live Immigration Category for those wishing to come to the UK, the extension and settlement routes of such a category is still open to Applicants for several years. As such those applying to either extend their visa or settlement, will still be having access to challenge their refusal letter via Administrative Review.
The Administrative Review provides a cost-effective way for applicants to request reconsideration of refusal decision because they believe an error has been made by the caseworker assessing the application.
Our expert lawyers have an in-depth understanding of the Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa Administrative Review process. We can assist you with right procedure and ensuring UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) know exactly why an Administrative Review is being requested so they can focus on correcting the relevant issue.

Administrative Review can be a complex process; however, by instructing us, you can trust that your matter will be dealt with quickly, and all aspects of the Administrative Review process will be explained to you in a clear, friendly manner.
Administrative review is the process by which those applying for visa can challenge the refusal on the basis that the decision is incorrect due to a case working error. For those who have applied for a Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa before 29th March 2019 and had their applications refused, and application for Administrative Review is available. Those who are currently in the UK on a Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa and had their extension, or settlement application refused they can also apply for Administrative Review.

If UKVI refused your Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa, it must issue a written notice concerning your eligibility for Administrative Review. The notice must include or be accompanied by a statement of the reasons for refusal. Information on how to apply for Administrative Review and the time limits for making an application must also be included within the information provided to an applicant by the Home Office.
If you are outside the UK and wish to apply for an Administrative Review of a UKVI decision, you will have 28 days to make the application. If you are applying inside the UK, you have 14 days.
When applying for Administrative Review, you should:

Administrative Reviews provide a fast, cost-effective way of having a refusal from UKVI re-examined.
