Immigration Advice In The University Of Sheffield
The Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner requires us to have in place policies, structures and procedures to comply with legislation about providing immigration advice. The following is in line with this code.
1. Designated Individuals
- Only designated individuals and those working under their supervision may give immigration advice within the University of Sheffield or its Union of Students.
- Audrey Leadley, Mark Collier, Tamara Francis, Azadeh Madanian Mohammadi, and Jennifer Knap-Wood in the Student Support and Guidance section (SSG) of Student Services, are the nominated individuals responsible for giving immigration advice in the University of Sheffield. Other staff work under their supervision.
- Jo Holliday is the nominated individual responsible within the University of Sheffield’s Union of Students. (See Immigration - Where do I go for information and advice.)
- Information (as opposed to advice) may be provided through a range of media and staff.
- Please note, the police are not immigration advisers nor are the people who staff public telephone lines at the Home Office. You should seek advice only from nominated individuals. There have been occasional misunderstandings when police or Home Office staff have given advice which has not been helpful.
