Pursuant to rule 14 of the Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008, the appellant and her daughter are granted anonymity.
No-one shall publish or reveal any information, including the name or address of the appellant, likely to lead members of the public to identify the appellant. Failure to comply with this order could amount to a contempt of court .
             The appellant appeals with permission against the decision of First-tier Tribunal Judge Doyle promulgated on 3 November 2023, dismissing her appeal against the decision of the Secretary of State of an Entry Clearance Officer in Sheffield to refuse her entry clearance as the adult dependent relative pursuant to Appendix FM of the Immigration Rules.
             The appellant is a Somali national born on 26 June 1951. She is a widow, suffers from type 2 diabetes, neuropathy, thyroid problems, hypertension and dementia. Her daughter ("the sponsor") came to the United Kingdom in 2001 and was granted citizenship in 2002. She lives with her daughter in Glasgow.
             The sponsor suffers from kidney disease and underwent a kidney transplant in 2009. That was unsuccessful and she suffered kidney failure in 2018 and is now in receipt of dialysis every day. As a result, she is unable to travel to Somalia to visit her mother and she too suffers from type 2 diabetes. She is unable to work and is reliant on benefits. The sponsor's daughter is now at university studying nursing.
