This video is about the Administrative Review after the UK visa refusal.
These days, most of the UK immigration applications, if refused, offer no full right of appeal. If this is the case, then you may have an opportunity to request an Administrative Review of the decision. It’s very important that you take this opportunity seriously and see if you can have the original decision overturned in your favour.
At A Y & J Solicitors, we specialise in Administrative Reviews. For a successful Administrative Review there must be an error in the decision that we can challenge. Recently we helped a client whose Tier 2 application was refused for a case working error of the Home Office. The Home Office alleged my client of not being eligible to switch her immigration status in the UK due to non-completion of an appropriate UK recognised degree. However, my client had completed a recognised UK degree and was eligible to switch immigration status. We dealt with the case through an Administrative Review request. The Home Office looked into the situation and granted a decision in our client’s favour.
Administrative Review is an opportunity to get The Home Office decision corrected. However, if you fail at the administrative review stage you could pursue challenging the decision by judicial review proceeding. Please note, judicial review could cost great deal of time, money and energy. Therefore, it’s important to take the administrative review process seriously, and use the opportunity to get it right the first time.
If you’re considering an Administrative Review and require assistance please Get in touch with us, our contact details are at the bottom of this video. We’re here to help. Thank you.

UK universities have always been an attraction to overseas students. One deserving student had almost achieved his dream of studying at a UK university, but after a telephone interview with the Home Office, they determined that he was not a…
"My experience with this company began poorly when I decided to use them for my family visa extension. In early April, I sent numerous emails but received no replies. I tried calling them but was met with the same frustrating lack of response. After several attempts, I finally connected with Krutika Howal, the Business Operations Executive. However, a new wave of poor service followed. From April 10th onwards, I’ve been trying to book an appointment but she keeps finding excuses for not responding. I’ve been trying to book an appointment over a month by phone and email, yet she’s incredibly slow to respond and even delayed my appointment. Finally, I secured a slot but from the last email I received from her confirming the appointment I sent her several more emails but she completely ignored them. When I tried calling the AI agent they took my call but didn’t connect me to the right person. They asked me to provide my information so they could call me back without giving me priority for my appointment which was scheduled for tomorrow. I need someone from the customer service team to investigate my case and explain why she’s working me like this?"
"I had an excellent experience working with my solicitor Imad on my ILR application. From start to finish, the process was handled with professionalism, clarity, and great attention to detail. They were always responsive, patient with my questions, and ensured everything was submitted correctly and on time. Thanks to their expertise and support, my ILR application was approved smoothly. I’m truly grateful for their help and would highly recommend their services to anyone needing immigration assistance."
"Was a pleasure working with Dipannita (Dia) and Sunny from AY&J Solicitors for my IL application. Dia has a keen eye for detail and is very meticulous in her job. I had an absolutely "smooth as silk" journey from the time I engaged and submitted my application. I now have "settled" status in the UK."
"Imad and AY&J solicitors have been incredible in helping me throughout my citizenship application process. Every aspect from the document check to submission went smoothly and efficiently, and I managed to get an approval in just over 3 months. Highly recommend!"
"Ikra provided excellent support throughout the visa process—professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. She made the formalities smooth and stress-free. Highly recommended for her efficiency and expertise."
"We had a wonderful experiance at AY&J solicotors. After the rejection of visa in the first attempt we contacted solicitors and the entire staff guided us throught the process that what are the mistakes we had made and what should be our next steps. The entire experiance was really smooth and hassale free. Thank you so much for the efforts to the team, Mihir and specially dipanita for solving so many of our doubts promptly via calls and emails. All the best and keep it up!!"
