Campaigners warn that the new eVisa scheme could lead to a digital Windrush scandal, leaving rightful residents unable to prove their immigration status due to flaws in the system.
The Open Rights Group report highlights grave concerns about how the design and rollout of the eVisa might prevent people with the right to be in the UK from adequately proving it.
Officials emphasize that the new eVisa aims to replace physical permits with digital documents to streamline immigration, yet many remain vulnerable to being overlooked in this transition.
Sara Alsherif from Open Rights Group criticizes the eVisa initiative as another problematic government IT effort, warning of potential life-altering consequences for the affected individuals.
