Human Rights Leave

According to the Human Rights Act 1998, it is unlawful for public authorities to act in a manner inconsistent with the rights enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights, including the Home Office (UK Visas & Immigration).

All United Kingdom citizens, as well as those under the authority and control of the UK immigration authorities, are protected by the European Convention on Human Rights.

Who is eligible for leave under Human Rights?

In certain circumstances, you may be eligible for leave to remain in the United Kingdom if you feel that your human rights would be violated if you were required to leave.

If a person feels their human rights have been violated by an immigration decision, they can appeal to the Immigration Tribunal.

In an immigration context, the following human rights provisions tend to be important:

  • Article 3: prohibition against torture and other inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment;
  • Article 8: right to respect for family and private life.

There can be no breach of the rights outlined in Article 3 under any circumstances. The UK may be required to grant you leave to remain if forcing you to leave would expose you to a real risk of abuse, for example, from the government or non-State agents. When your medical care would otherwise be withheld, the UK may be required to grant you leave to remain.

As a qualified right, article 8 requires a breach to be disproportionate to the interference with your private and family life. When immigration is involved, the right to respect for private and family life will usually be weighed against the state’s right to control immigration and safeguard the country’s economy.

In exercising its immigration functions, the Home Office must consider the best interests of the child.

There is a risk that Article 8 may be violated if you are separated from your partner or child in the UK as a consequence of a decision. It may also be breached if you have lived in the UK for an extended period of time and established ties here.

Our experienced UK immigration Solicitors can help you with your immigration process.

Human Rights Visa UK based on Family Life

To protect your Article 8 right to family life, you may be granted leave to remain in the UK if:

  • If you have a relationship with a child under 18 who lives in the United Kingdom, or has resided in the United Kingdom for the past 7 years, and you cannot reasonably expect the child to leave; or

There is an insurmountable obstacle (i.e. quite significant difficulties) to family life continuing outside the UK if you have a genuine relationship with your partner who is settled in the UK.
