The applicant is a Somalian National from a minority tribe and a refugee who was granted asylum in the United Kingdom in 2011. She challenges a decision of the Home Office dated 17 December 2012 whereby a fee of $3200 was levied in respect of her family’s application for family reunion in order to join her in the UK. Neither the applicant nor her family can discharge this application fee and the respondent has refused to waive same thereby debarring the applicant’s family from having their application considered by the respondent.
