Student Yashika Bageerathi, who had been facing deportation to Mauritius without her family today, will not be removed as planned.
The 19-year-old had been told she would be flown back at 5pm on Mother's Day.
Sky News' Clare Fallon said Miss Bageerathi was informed she would not be on the Sunday flight from Heathrow, late on Saturday night, but was not told the reason why.
People protest against the removal of Miss Bageerathi Lawyers were due to make a last-ditch legal bid to prevent the deportation on Sunday.
Ahead of the latest development, Miss Bageerathi told Sky News: "I just want to be with my mum right now and celebrate Mother's Day as we do every year because I know she is very special to me."
There has been a growing campaign against her deportation led by her school, and backed by MP David Burrowes, who represents Enfield Southgate.
More than 40 people gathered outside Parliament on Saturday afternoon to protest over her removal, and on online petition has received almost 155,000 signatures.
Shadow Immigration Minister David Hanson has also said he would be contacting the Home Office to call for a review of the decision.
Miss Bageerathi came to the UK in 2011 with her mother and two younger siblings to escape alleged physical abuse by a relative, and claimed asylum in the summer of 2013.
She had been attending the Oasis Academy Hadley school, where she was described as a first-class student, until she was detained at Yarl's Wood on March 19.
Home Secretary Theresa May has said it would not be appropriate to "interfere" with the case.
