The Entry Clearance Officer, now the appellant, has been granted permission to appeal the decision of First-tier Tribunal Judge Buckwell allowing the appeal of the respondent refusing her application under the immigration provisions relating to the Ankara Agreement.
The respondent is a citizen of Turkey born on 26 February 1982. She applied to the appellant for entry clearance in order to establish or operate a business under the Turkey-European Community Association Agreement ("the Ankara Agreement").
The respondent wishes to take over an existing business, known as [ ]. She proposes to purchase an established business for the sum of £8,000. She will be the sole owner and there is a projected annual turnover amounting to £77,800. She also proposed to rent accommodation for her private residence. As the company is a limited company she will take a monthly salary in the amount of £800.
The relevant provisions applicable are set out in HC509 and as stated by the ECO an application under the Ankara Agreement provisions presupposes a right to take the benefit of the standstill clause. The relevant Immigration Rules applied by the ECO are as follows:
If establishing a new business in the United Kingdom on his own account, that he will be bringing into the country sufficient funds to establish a business that can realistically be expected to support him and any dependants without recourse to employment for which a work permit is required."
