How to appeal?
The IPCC is responsible for considering appeals made by members of the public in relation to serious complaints against UKBA. We have powers to overturn certain UKBA decisions.
We do not have any power to consider appeals in relation to less serious complaints about staff or complaints about overall UKBA policies. Neither do we have the power to deal with appeals against complaints about incidents which took place in Scotland or Northern Ireland.
Appeal against the non-recording of a complaint
UKBA has a duty to record your complaint about the conduct of a member of staff or give you reasons why it has been decided not to record your complaint. If you have tried to make a serious complaint about a member of UKBA staff exercising police-like powers but UKBA did not record it, you may be able to appeal to the IPCC.

Appeal against the outcome of a UKBA investigation into your complaint
When a serious complaint has been locally investigated by UKBA, or investigated by UKBA under the supervision of the IPCC, you may be able to appeal to the IPCC about the outcome of the investigation. UKBA will write and inform you where you have the right to appeal to the IPCC against the outcome of an investigation
