If you have been detained by the UK Border Agency or under the Immigration Rules and if you have been in a removal centre or prison for a period of at least 7 days, you will be able to apply to be released on bail.
Essentially a bail application is asking the Home Office to release you pending determination of your representations/application.
You can apply for an immigration bail to the Chief Immigration Officer (CIO) or to the First Tier Tribunal to secure your release from immigration detention.
There are four ways types of bail
You can apply for bail to the Home Office as many times as you want and even when you are applying for Tribunal Bail.
Your application for Secretary of State Bail will be decided by the Home Office and there will not be a bail hearing.
The application for Home Office bail is free.
This is a complicated area of law with a heavy documentation requirement and requires particular attention and expertise. At London Solicitors our specialist asylum solicitors can help you gather the necessary documents and create effective bail applications. Remember the onus of proof in justifying continued detention lies with the secretary state who needs to prove that detention is necessary on the balance of probabilities.
