CPINs state policy. Experts address the appellant.

Home Office Country Policy and Information Notes give a generalised country picture. Immigration tribunals still need independent analysis tied to the appellant's profile (ethnicity, religion, political activity, sexual orientation, gender, health, or particular social group) with sources dated and cited so the judge can weigh reliability.

This hub sets report standards, instruction workflow, and compliance expectations across a network of country and thematic specialists. Guidance here relates only to United Kingdom proceedings: the Immigration and Asylum Chamber, Upper Tribunal (IAC), and related UK appeals.

Standards first

Practice Direction 2024, Adam Pipe October 2025 guidance, Ikarian Reefer independence, and CPR Part 35 principles.
