as for private firms are now harassing people by text message. i dont think its harassment to remind people their visa is expiring or expired and they should leave and fake colleges should be shut down.
As we welcome the New Year with our hopes and dreams, 2012 will surely be remembered as one of the toughest years for non-EU migrant workers, partners, spouses and students in the UK.
The UK Border Agency (UKBA) has introduced massive rule changes, clampdowns, crackdowns and shutdowns (of private colleges), all designed to basically get rid of more non-EU immigrants, their partners and students.
In 2012 we have seen the introduction of new ‘minimum £18,600’ income Immigration Rules on spouse visas, the abolition of the Post Study Work Visa along with various appeal rights against visa refusals.
The 14 year illegal long stay concession was also abolished, although the 10 year legal stay route (assuming you can manage to get your leave to remain renewed as a student) remains.
While EU migrants are shown the red carpet with access to housing and benefits, Filipinos and other non-EU citizens are being shown the red card and told in no uncertain terms that they are no longer welcome in the UK.
