Frequently asked questions
What is an administrative review?
An administrative review is a request for the Home Office to check a refusal for a case-working error, rather than an appeal to an independent judge. It applies to certain decisions and does not let you submit substantial new evidence. The official route is on GOV.UK (gov.uk/ask-for-a-visa-administrative-review).
When should I use administrative review instead of an appeal?
It depends on your decision: some refusals carry a right of appeal, others only an administrative review, and a few have neither. Your refusal letter should say which applies. Because the deadlines are short and the routes differ, it is worth checking quickly — see GOV.UK (gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration/immigration-appeals).
Can I add new evidence in an administrative review?
Generally no. An administrative review looks for a caseworking error in the original decision on the evidence already provided, so it is not usually the place for new documents. Where new evidence is central, a fresh application or an appeal may be more appropriate — advice helps you choose.
How long do I have to request one?
The time limit is short and depends on whether you are in or outside the UK and in detention. Missing it can be difficult to fix, so check the current deadline on GOV.UK (gov.uk/ask-for-a-visa-administrative-review) and act promptly.
