Kan (Post-Study Work, Degree Award Required) India: AIT 5 Jun 2009

AIT The requirement of paragraph 245Z and paragraphs 51 to 55 of Appendix A of HC 395 as amended is that in order to be entitled to points the applicant must have been awarded the requisite qualification in respect of which points are claimed. It is not sufficient to show that the qualification will be awarded. The language used in the Tier 1 (Post-Study Work) of the Points Based System – Policy Guidance in indicating what documents are required as evidence of the award, supports this view.

Romein v The Advocate General: SCS 1 Apr 2016

The petitioner had applied for registration as a British citizen pursuant to section 4C of the British Nationality Act 1981, as amended by the Citizenship and Immigration Act 2009. The respondent, the Secretary of State for the Home Department refused that application and the petitioner now sought review. Born in the USA she sought citizenship through her mother, who acquired British citizenship through her own father. Her mother had been told at the time, that citizenship could be passed only through the male line, and there was no point registering the birth of the petitioner. That no meant that she was unable to apply.
