How to apply

Making an application

This information applies to applications for Schedule 10 by a person who is subject to immigration bail and is either living in the community or applying for immigration bail from detention.

Applications for Schedule 10 support must be made using a BAIL 409 form.

A BAIL 409 form can be used when a person:

  • is living in the community and requires accommodation to avoid a breach of their human rights
  • is applying for immigration bail from detention and requires accommodation to avoid a breach of their human rights

Applications should be submitted directly to the Home Office using the address provided on the form.

Getting help with an application

A person may be able to get help from a voluntary or community organisation that supports people seeking asylum and other migrants.

Bail for Immigration Detainees (BID) can provide legal advice to people in immigration detention.

If a person believes they meet the requirements for Schedule 10 support but has not been issued with a BAIL 201 notice, they should seek immigration advice before making an application.

More information

Further information is available in the Home Office guidance on immigration bail.

The Asylum Support Appeals Project (ASAP) has produced a factsheet on Schedule 10 support.
