The Case Assurance and Audit Unit was established in April 2011 to deal with the ongoing management of legacy migration and asylum cases.

In 2013, the name of the Case Assurance and Audit Unit was changed to the Older Live Cases Unit, the new name more accurately describes the remit to deal with the remaining legacy cases. The Older Live Cases Unit still has the same operational responsibility for dealing with the older unresolved asylum cases, where the initial asylum claim was lodged before March 2007, and for the older migration cases.
