General News of Monday, 10 June 2024Source: www.ghanaweb.comA Ghanaian woman named Cecilia Adjei has won a case against the UK Home Office regarding her immigration status in the country. The said document, a '3C leave', is an automatic form of immigration status while applicants wait for the Home Office to process their application. "The evidence clearly establishes that a substantial number of those on section 3C leave suffer real hardship through being unable to provide immediate documentary proof of their immigration status and attendant rights." "What I went through while waiting for my visa to be extended by the Home Office was really stressful," she said. It was humiliating and scary as I didn’t have any way to prove to my employer that I still had the correct immigration status and the right to work."
