This guidance is about leave extended under sections 3C and 3D of the Immigration Act
1971 (referred to in this guidance as section 3C or 3D leave).
The purpose of section 3C and 3D leave is to prevent an individual from becoming an
overstayer while they are awaiting or appealing a decision. A person becomes an
overstayer if they remain in the UK beyond the period of their leave. This is a criminal
offence under section 24 of the Immigration Act 1971.
3C leave
Section 118 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 added section 3C to the
Immigration Act 1971 to prevent an applicant from becoming an overstayer by extending
their leave while they are:

This page tells you about section 3C and 3D leave during the period when an applicant can
appeal.
Leave is extended under sections 3C(2)(b) and 3D(2)(a) for the period when an applicant
can make an appeal in the UK (in-country appeal) against the immigration decision.
For information about appeal rights and what constitutes an immigration decision, see
related link: Section 82 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.
Calculating the period in which an in time appeal can be made
The way in which the timescale for appealing an immigration decision is calculated changed
on 20 October 2014. When you need to decide whether an appeal was brought in time, you
must apply the correct tribunal rules.
Appealable decisions sent on or after 20 October 2014
For all in country cases (including detained cases that are not in the detained fast track
cases) the First-tier Tribunal must receive the notice of appeal no later than 14 days after
the applicant was sent the notice of the decision against which the appeal is brought.
If the appeal is unsuccessful and the applicant wishes to request permission to challenge
the decision at the Upper Tribunal, the Tribunal must receive the request not later than 14
days after the date on which the applicant was provided with written reasons for the
decision.
For more information on the timescales to appeal, see rule 19 of the related link: The
Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) Rules 2014.
Appealable decisions sent before 20 October 2014
Before 20 October 2014, in non-detained cases, an applicant had 10 working days in which
to bring an in time appeal. If the decision was sent by recorded delivery post, the decision
was treated as having been received two days after it was sent, unless the applicant can
provide evidence to the contrary (for example, the letter was lost by the Royal Mail).

The Tribunal Procedure
(First-tier Tribunal)
This previous time limit was specified in the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal (Procedure)
Rules 2005, which were replaced by the 2014 Rules.
(Immigration and
Asylum Chamber) Rules
2014
The new tribunal procedural rules apply from 20 October 2014. The transitional provisions
for the new rules state that a time period for appealing which has started to run before the
date on which they come into force, and which has not expired, shall continue to apply. A
time period for an appeal will have started to run under the old rules if the decision was
posted on or before 19 October 2014. This is because under the old rules, the timescale for
appealing will be determined by the deemed date on which the decision was served. For
decisions sent by post, the date of deemed service is determined by the date of posting the
decision notice. Therefore the date of posting is the starting point for determining when the
time period for appealing has started to run under the old rules.
3C or 3D leave during the 14 day period in which an applicant can appeal
Leave is extended automatically under sections 3C(2)(b) and 3D(2)(a) during the 14 day
appeal period whether or not the person does in fact appeal. If an appeal is not brought, any
leave extended by section 3C or 3D ends after the 14 day period unless the appeal is
allowed out of time. If an appeal is brought (made) in time, leave is extended by section 3C
until the appeal is finally determined, withdrawn or abandoned.
Out of time appeals
If an out of time appeal is permitted by the First-tier Tribunal, leave under section 3C or 3D
is taken to apply from the date the court accept the appeal which will reinstate the
applicants conditions under their previous grant of leave. In these circumstances the
applicant will not have been covered by 3C leave between the date of the original refusal
and the day before 3C leave is reinstated. From that date, section 3C leave will continue
until the appeal is finally determined, withdrawn or abandoned. In each of these instances,
the effective date is two days after the decision was posted out to the applicant.
Any removal action that has been started following the original refusal must stop.

In this section
3C and 3D leave while
an appeal can be made
If an appeal succeeds on the basis that our decision was not in accordance with the law,
section 3C leave continues under subsection (2)(a) on the basis that no lawful decision has
been made.
Section 3C leave remains in place until the application has been lawfully decided. If the
tribunal refers the case back to the Home Office to make a lawful decision, you must remake the decision as soon as possible.

This page explains how 3C leave is affected if a person withdraws their appeal and makes a
fresh application on the same day.
A person must withdraw their appeal in order to submit a fresh application. Once their
appeal is withdrawn, their 3C leave ends.
Checking the withdrawal
You must check any outstanding appeal has been withdrawn and note CID before you
validate an application form. You must reject the application as void if an appeal has not
been withdrawn.
Out of time application
An application made after an appeal is withdrawn is out of time, even if it is made on the
same day. This is because legislation prevents a person from making a fresh application
until an appeal has been withdrawn.

While the persons leave is extended by section 3C or 3D, they cannot make a new

of their application at any time before it is decided by the Secretary of State. This is as a
result of the Court of Appeals decision in JH (Zimbabwe) [2009] EWCA Civ 78.

Decided applications
An applicant cannot vary the grounds of their application after it has been decided. This is
because once it has been decided it ceases to be an application, so there is no application
to vary under section 3C.
Where the Secretary of State makes a decision to give, refuse or vary leave, that decision
must be given by notice in writing to the person affected under S4(1) of the Immigration Act
1971.
For the purpose of section 3C of the Immigration Act 1971 an application for variation of
leave is decided:

decision
This page explains when a migrant can vary an application after an Asylum and Immigration
Tribunal decision to allow an appeal.
Allowed appeals: unlawful decisions
Once an application has been refused it can no longer be varied. However, the migrants
leave is extended under section 3C (2)(a) if:
they appeal against the decision, and
it is found to be unlawful and returned to the Home Office to be remade.
In such circumstances, the application remains undecided as the original decision was
unlawful and had no effect. The application remains outstanding and may be varied until the
Home Office has made a fresh lawful decision.
How the tribunal decision must be implemented
It the tribunal decision is not being appealed it must be implemented. If the tribunal has
found the decision to refuse the application was unlawful, you must remake the decision.
You must take into account any findings of fact or law made by the tribunal. That will
normally mean a grant of leave is appropriate unless:

tribunal may give a direction that leave be granted for three years because this would give
effect to its decision.
For more information see section 87 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.
Requests to vary leave following an allowed appeal
A person may apply to vary their original application:
after the tribunal decision has been made but before the decision has been
implemented, and providing
the appeal was allowed because the decision was unlawful.
You must not accept an application to vary leave where the tribunal decision directs the
Home Office to grant leave for a specified period of time. This is because the Home Office
risk contempt of court if it fails to implement the appeal as directed.
Dismissed appeals which recommend further consideration
The tribunal may dismiss an appeal but recommend that the Secretary of State reconsiders
the application outside the Immigration Rules. It is rare for the tribunal to give such a
recommendation and it is not binding on the Home Office.
In such circumstances the appeal has been finally determined and the migrant must submit
a fresh application if they wish to apply on a different basis or raise new grounds. You must
reject any request to vary the previous application.
An appellant may add to, or amend the grounds of the appeal up to the time it is heard by
the tribunal. This is an essential part of the one stop appeal process. Exceptions to this
apply. Please see section 85A of the Nationality, Immigration & Asylum Act 2002 at the
related link.
Section 86(2)(a) of the 2002 act requires the tribunal to consider any matter raised as a
ground of appeal. For detailed advice on when further grounds are made during the
passage of an appeal, see related link: One-stop system.

following refusal of the application, they are eligible to make an application for
administrative review.
If an applicant does not make a request for administrative review following an eligible refusal
decision, their 3C leave ends on the last day on which they could have made an in-time
application.
If the applicant does make an in-time administrative review application, their leave is further
extended under section 3C while their administrative review is pending.
An administrative review is pending until:
it is rejected as invalid because it does not meet the requirements of paragraph 34L

it is withdrawn in accordance with paragraph 34X, or

you must if possible, decide them all at the same time. If all the applications are refused, the

all applications are decided, and
appeal rights are exhausted on all appeal grounds raised against the refusal decisions.

Withdrawing applications for travel purposes
If an applicant has an undecided application for further leave and asks for their passport to
be returned to travel outside the common travel area (CTA) that application is treated as
withdrawn under paragraph 34J of the Immigration Rules on the date the passport is sent to
the applicant. If the applicant made an in time application, section 3C leave ends at the point
the application is withdrawn.

applications are supported by certificates of sponsorship from a premium sponsor.
Withdrawing applications for other purposes
If an applicant makes a clear written request to withdraw their application, their section 3C
leave will come to an end. The date the withdrawal becomes effective is the same date it is
received by the Home Office.
If the applicants request is unclear, you must:
ask them to confirm they wish to withdraw their application for further leave, and
accept the withdrawal once they have made a clear request in writing.

Immigration Act 1971
(section 4)
A decision to refuse an application for variation of leave can only be withdrawn by letter from
the Home Office. For more information, see related link: Immigration Act 1971 (section 4).
If an incorrect decision has been made, it is possible for you to withdraw it and make and
serve a fresh decision, either at the same time as you withdraw the earlier one or later.
Where an applicants leave was extended under section 3C before making the decision and
that decision is then withdrawn, section 3C leave continues until the fresh decision is made
and served and any appeal finally determined.
Withdrawing a decision to curtail or revoke: 3D leave
If leave to remain has been extended by section 3D, you can withdraw the decision to curtail
or revoke leave to remain. This means that the curtailment or revocation has no effect and
the original leave that was granted would continue to run.
