    For the Respondent: Mr N Bramble, Senior Home Office Presenting Officer

     

     


    DETERMINATION AND REASONS

     

     

    1. This is the appeal of Arpitaben Jyotindrabhai Patel whose application for further leave to remain as a student was refused and her husband’s and daughter’s applications were refused as her dependants.

     

    2. The application was refused on the basis of the language test. The First-tier Tribunal Judge acknowledged that there were three certificates and unfortunately erred in finding that the results from the three certificates had to be in one certificate. This requirement of the Immigration Rules did not come into effect until October 2013 which postdated the date of the decision which is the subject of challenge.

     

    3. Mr Bramble for the Secretary of State accepted that this was a material error of law and consented to the decision being set aside. In the light of the evidence that was produced to the First-tier Tribunal and to the Secretary of State, the appeal is successful. The appellants meet the requirements of the Rules in force at the date of decision.

     

    Conclusion

     

    There is an error of law in the determination of the First-tier Tribunal decision such that the decision is set aside to be remade.

     

    I remake the decision and allow the appeal.

     

     

     

    Signed Date 10th March 2014

     

     

    Upper Tribunal Judge Coker
