“We are hearing that visas for all members of a family who have applied together are not always processed together, causing significant delays to their ability to travel to the UK. We are also hearing that people are having real difficulties with receiving emails at all, or they are receiving emails at different times from others in their family, all of which is causing huge distress and delays,” said chief executive Enver Solomon. “It amounts to putting paperwork and bureaucracy before people who have no choice but to leave their homes.”

A Ukrainian child refugee has won her right to come to Scotland in a groundbreaking change of visa rules.

Nataliia Zavhorodnia, 15, found herself in the bizarre situation where her two guinea pigs had been approved for travel but her case was tied up in Home Office red tape.
