Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many registered immigration advisors have had their registration revoked or rejected for renewal as a result of the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner substantiating a complaint against that advisor.

The power for the OISC to revoke an immigration advisor’s registration was enforced by the Immigration Act 2014.

Since then, the Commissioner has cancelled or refused the continued registration of 21 organisations where complaints findings formed part of the reason for refusal, or the organisation requested withdrawal from the scheme.
