THE PLAN to send failed asylum seekers to Rwanda will get under way next week, HOAR can reveal.
The first migrants will be notified by Home Office lawyers within days.
They are expected to be single men who crossed the Channel in small boats — but it could be months before they are put on a plane to Africa.
Priti Patel’s team is braced for leftie lawyers to challenge the controversial scheme.
The Home Secretary is keen to get failed claimants on to jets as soon as possible but insiders acknowledge this is just the first stage in what could be a long process.
A Home Office source said: “The first referrals will be going next week, so people will be put on notice.”
The Prime Minister has also admitted that “liberal lawyers” will try to block the policy but vowed: “We will get it done.”
Boris Johnson added: “It’s a great deal between two countries, each helping the other.”

More than 750 migrants have crossed the Channel so far this month.
However, internal Home Office modelling suggested only 300 arrivals would be removed to Rwanda each year.
The PM said the policy would be uncapped — but it has been compared to agreements to deport migrants when Britain was in the EU.
That saw 300 just removed every year, although the Home Office rejected the comparison.
