Frequently asked questions

What is the Immigration Advisers Complaints and Disciplinary Tribunal?
The IACDT is an independent tribunal that decides complaints about licensed immigration advisers referred to it by the Immigration Advisers Authority. It can uphold or dismiss complaints, censure advisers, impose fines, order refunds and compensation, and suspend or cancel licences.
How do I complain about an immigration adviser?
Complaints start with the Immigration Advisers Authority, which investigates and can refer matters to the tribunal. Complaints about unlicensed people giving immigration advice also go to the Authority.
Does a tribunal decision mean the adviser did something wrong?
Not necessarily. The tribunal dismisses some complaints, and a decision may deal only with a preliminary or sanctions question. Read the outcome in the decision itself; each entry here quotes the tribunal's own published summary and links to the full decision.
