Administrative Review Against Refusal of Tier 2 Sportsperson Visa UK

If your Tier 2 Sportsperson Visa application has been refused by the Home Office, you may be eligible to request an Administrative Review to challenge the decision. The Administrative Review process allows a senior Home Office official to reassess your application and determine whether any case working errors were made during the initial decision-making process.

An Administrative Review focuses on identifying mistakes in how your application was handled, including the interpretation of the evidence or improper application of immigration rules. Importantly, this process does not allow for the submission of new evidence; rather, it assesses whether the refusal was justified based on the original information provided.

Common Grounds for Refusal:

  • The Home Office may have failed to recognize your eligibility for the Tier 2 Sportsperson Visa.
  • Key documents that you submitted may have been overlooked or misinterpreted.
  • Errors in applying the immigration rules or miscommunication from the caseworker.

Filing an Administrative Review:

You must apply for an Administrative Review within 14 days of receiving the refusal if you are in the UK, or within 28 days if you are outside the UK. The review is usually completed within 28 days, although the timeline can vary.

Potential Outcomes:

  • If errors are found, the decision may be overturned, and your Tier 2 Sportsperson Visa could be approved without further action.
  • If the review upholds the refusal, you may have other legal avenues to explore, such as applying for a Judicial Review.
