Refusal of an application for leave or indefinite leave to remain does not automatically lead to removal or deportation.<\/p><p>It is important that the Government retains the ability to refuse an application where we have identified that migrants have given deliberately false information in order to extend their stay or obtain settlement in the UK. It is not the Government\u2019s policy to refuse applications by highly skilled migrants solely due to minor tax errors. Where any discrepancies are identified, applicants are given a right to explain the discrepancy. All such cases are signed off by a manager before refusal grounds are applied.<\/p><p>The Tier 1 (General) category was intended for highly skilled workers applying to work in the UK without requiring a sponsoring employer. The route was closed in April 2011, partly due to evidence of abuse by migrants using the route. Applications for indefinite leave to remain remained open until April 2018, for those who were in the category at the time it closed.<\/p><p>We have refused Tier 1(General) applications under paragraph 322(5) where an applicant\u2019s character and conduct call into question their desirability of remaining in the UK. In these cases, refusals have been given where there have been substantial differences \u2013 often tens of thousands of pounds \u2013 between the earnings used to claim points in an immigration application and an applicant\u2019s HMRC records, without a credible explanation from the applicant. We take all available evidence into account before making a decision and each application is considered on its own merits.<\/p><p>As I confirmed to the Home Affairs Select Committee on 8 May, we will carry out a review of these cases to see how many showed clear evidence of deceit, and whether any were refused due to minor errors. So far there is insufficient evidence to suggest there is any systemic problem which may lead to wrongful removals for this group, but this is one area our review will check.<\/p>"}
