When Immigration Enforcement Action Begins
Immigration enforcement can take different forms depending on an individual’s circumstances and immigration history. This may include detention, removal action or a decision to deport a person from the UK.
The legal options available will depend on the decision that has been made, the reasons behind it and the individual’s personal and immigration circumstances.
