Immigration
The UK: OK plan
You are welcome here.
All care leavers who need it get help with immigration. Talk to your social worker to find out about the help we can offer. The City of London is signed up to the South London Refugee Association Pledge.
Your social worker will
- Be skilled and informed on immigration issues
- Connect you with good quality legal support as soon as possible
- Want to support you through immigration applications and appeals (alongside your legal representative)
- Know when your status expires and make sure you have your next application in to extend/appeal (if eligible)
- Help you make plans if you do not get status in the UK
- Enable you (if eligible) to apply for permanent status and British citizenship
- Enable you (if eligible) to apply for a British Passport
- Travel documents (passports only are provided).
Because they are temporary, not all countries accept them, and it is not in our duty to provide.
