UG (Nepal) and Others v Entry Clearance Officer: CA 2 Feb 2012

Appeal about the circumstances in which the adult dependants of Gurkhas who have been granted indefinite leave to enter the UK as a Gurkha discharged from the British Army may themselves be granted indefinite leave to remain in order to settle in this country within the family unit. Whilst therefore the case inevitably raises issues connected with this country’s unquestioned debt of gratitude for generations of loyal and distinguished service by the Gurkhas, it is important to note from the outset that the arrangements under consideration are equally applicable to the dependants of all foreign and commonwealth nationals who seek settlement in the UK on discharge from HM Forces.
