LDI webinar on the new UK immigration system with George Shirley from the Home Office

13 November 2020

Yesterday, Laura Devine Immigration hosted a webinar on the new UK immigration system with the Home Office.

George Shirley (Director of Visas and Citizenship at the Home Office) and Daniel Petriello (Strategy, Engagement and Design Team for the Future Border and Immigration system) together with Sophie Barrett-Brown and Natasha Chell discussed the new system.

Matthew Wills (Senior Solicitor) provided an update on Brexit, and Christi Jackson (Partner and Head of the US Practice) closed by providing a US immigration update following Joe Biden’s election victory.

Our webinar series will continue in January 2021 when we will review the early implementation of the new UK immigration system and provide guidance for employers.
