Logging in for Solicitors

For asylum cases from prior to 12 June 2026:
Log in to the Solicitor Portal
For asylum cases from on or after 12 June 2026:
You need a NOvA solicitor ID card to log in to the portals.
Authorise
We recommend that you authorise your secretarial staff or another solicitor. This allows your authorised representative to log in to the portals if you are away. Visit the NOvA website to learn how to arrange an authorisation. Your secretarial staff or backup will then have access to all your cases and case files. And they can also submit case files for pending cases.
Login and authorisation are managed entirely by NOvA. Do you have questions? In that case, please phone or email NOvA’s information desk for solicitors.
