The appellant appeals to the Upper Tribunal from decision of the First-tier Tribunal dismissing her appeal against the decision by the Secretary of State to refuse her leave to remain outside the Rules, and to make directions for her removal as an overstayer. The First-tier Tribunal did not make an anonymity direction, and I do not consider the appellant requires to be accorded anonymity for these proceedings in the Upper Tribunal.
The appellant is a national of Namibia, whose date of birth is 7 March 1980. She arrived in the United Kingdom on 27 May 2003 with leave to enter as a working holidaymaker. She had a two year visa which ran until 22 May 2005.
On 24 May 2005 she applied for leave to remain in the United Kingdom as a student. This application was refused with no right to appeal on 6 July 2005 because the appellant did not have extant leave at the time she lodged her application.
On 1 December 2008 the appellant gave birth to Moses, who took his father�s surname. His father is a Namibian national, who has no lawful basis of stay in the United Kingdom and indeed it is not clear that he is still here.
On 4 April 2012 the appellant applied on behalf of herself and her child for leave to remain in the United Kingdom on a compassionate basis outside the Rules. The application was refused on 4 June 2013, without a right of appeal. On 7 October 2013 the appellant was served with an immigration notice IS151A, as was her child.
