About The Course:
This course provides a clear and practical understanding of immigration offences and civil penalties within the UK legal framework. Designed for immigration advisors, caseworkers, and legal professionals, it explores the key offences that arise under immigration law and the responsibilities placed on individuals, employers, and landlords.
You will examine offences such as illegal entry and overstaying, deception and document-related offences, and the concept of “double down” offences, where further non-compliance compounds an individual’s legal position. The course also covers more serious areas including assisting unlawful immigration and trafficking-related offences.
A key focus is placed on understanding available defences, particularly in relation to refugees and victims of slavery or trafficking, ensuring learners can identify when protections may apply.
In addition, the course explores civil penalties and compliance responsibilities for employers and landlords, highlighting the risks of non-compliance and how to avoid enforcement action.
