Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many highly skilled Tier 1 (general) migrants who have been refused indefinite leave to remain have been convicted of a criminal offence in the UK.

Home Office Migration Statistics do not capture the number of highly skilled Tier 1 (general) migrants who have been refused indefinite leave to remain and have been convicted of a criminal offence in the UK.

The Home Office does publish data on how many Tier 1 applications have been refused or granted. These can be found in our published statistics under ‘Extensions’ at:
