Internal relocation

Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers for solicitors, barristers, NGOs, and appellants instructing regional expert evidence in UK proceedings.
- What is a country condition report in UK asylum proceedings?
- A country condition report is independent expert evidence describing political, security, and human rights conditions in the claimant's country of origin. It is prepared for use in the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber), Upper Tribunal, or judicial review, and must comply with FPR Part 25 or CPR Part 35 as applicable.
- How quickly can you accept an instruction?
- We acknowledge formal instructions within one working day. Standard reports are typically delivered within 10–15 legal working days. Express and urgent pathways are available where tribunal directions require earlier delivery — specify your hearing date and report deadline when instructing.
- Do you work on legally aided cases?
- Yes. We accept instructions funded through the Legal Aid Agency and private retainers. Indicate your funding route on the instruction form so we can align fee structures and invoicing with your certificate or private billing requirements.
- How do your reports address Home Office CPIN positions?
- Our specialists triangulate primary sources — including UNHCR country information, reputable human rights monitoring, and tribunal determinations — to identify gaps, outdated assertions, or over-generalisation in Country Policy and Information Notes (CPINs). Reports address the specific profile of the appellant rather than relying on macro-level country summaries.
- Which UK courts and tribunals do you cover?
- We provide expert evidence for proceedings in England and Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, including the First-tier Tribunal (IAC), Upper Tribunal (IAC), Court of Appeal, High Court judicial review, Supreme Court, and Home Office / UKVI submissions including fresh claims under paragraph 353 of the Immigration Rules.
- Is my enquiry confidential?
- Yes. All instructions and enquiries are handled in strict confidence. We do not share client details with the Home Office, foreign embassies, or government authorities without your explicit instruction.
