Banking and asylum seekers/refugees

At today’s LMP Ops meeting there was a discussion of the Home Office checks which Banks are required to do from January 2018.

Here’s an article from the Guardian in September talking about some of the problems in the communication of information between Home office and the banking firms.

Here’s another article about the Banking checks, also in the Guardian.

By way of balance here’s an article from the BBC on this.

Please remember, LASSN have compiled some training on the Immigration Act, Banking and Refugees. This training was written before these checks came in, but the information around checks is still valid.
