UKBA to be scrapped

26 March 2013 McGill & Co Solicitors Immigration

The Home Secretary has today announced that she has accepted that the UKBA must go as it's work is simply not good enough. MPs criticised the border agency in a report published on Monday, describing it as "not fit for purpose".

The Home Affairs Committee also said that for years the UK Border Agency had repeatedly supplied it with incorrect information about the size of the backlog of asylum cases.

To many of us, it merely confirms what we have been arguing for years.

Current events made an already stressful and challenging process even more so, and I doubt we could not have navigated this successfully without the careful and detailed guidance -and patience, of Amna and James. Each brings both professionalism and humanity to their work, and we are deeply grateful. You will be in very good hands.

Grace is the most friendly attorney I have ever met. She and James are very professional, I was very happy with their service and assistance. They even managed to help me issue a residence permit three weeks ahead of the expected issue date! Hopefully, I will be relying on them for all my legal documentation requirements in the future.
