i have a pending student visa application forwarded last January 28, 2008.To date i have no feed back on the status of my application. all my legal documents were not yet returned.how will i know the status of my application. was i refused or granted?

Hello. I am one of those thousands of NVQ applicants who are refused by the British embassy (Manila). I submitted my application last Sept 4, 2008 and I had their decision after more than 2 months of waiting. The reasons of my refusal were on 57 (viii) and 57 (ii). My sponsor is a European (French) and he has a business there. I provided the documents given by my sponsor when I appealed the second week of December. However, I received a letter on March 22 from the embassy that my appeal was forwarded to the AIT on March 10. I don’t know what happens now to my appeal since I haven’t received any information from the AIT. Please help! I need your advice, Sir. Thank you very much.

I am absolutely devastated by the refusal lettles which UK embassy gave to my dear husband and son.I have been here for four years,and i can’t stay any longer without my family around.The reason for refusing is that i didn’t provide enough evidence about our marridge subsistence.Should i reapply or appeal?Please could anyone help me?

i was detained abroad in 2006 and my wife attend the appeal hearing on her own while i was away, the case was refuse on the base that i was not in court with her. we appeal to the high court, 2 months after the case at the AIT i return to the uk. in 2009 we heard from the high court that our case was refuse again because i was not at AIT in 2006.i am a british citizen by birth i married to my wife 7yrs and we are still living together, i dont know what to do to prove that i will never leave my wife all i can do is love her the same way as always, can you give us your good advice?..MUCH THANKS

Hi!i just want to knw if easy for me to apply student visa if i have a tourist visa pls,give me advise wht im going to do.thnks.from manila phil.

I applied for my student visa last year 18th of november only to recieve the result as “visa refused” last 02 February of this year. I am a registered nurse and the reason stated was that it will be cheaper for me to have my masteral degree here in the Philippines that to have my NVQ 3&4 in UK. How long would it take the resolution to take place? or would t be more faster if i would just have my visa re-application?

I applied for a student visa in December last year and i was refused but i hard to reapply because my program start February 09 with all the necessary document needed so unfortunate i was denied again.I hard to put in for an appeal which i am yet to have reply on till date. Will love to read an advice from you on what to do.

hello again. Can you recommend a UK based immigration adviser whom I can contact to handle my case? I do not know anybody. Thank you.

My daughter is in the UK right now taking up NVQ in Health & Social Care level 3. She was approached by a placement provider offering her 2 year FREE Course Fee and possible two year FREE accommodation. With these very enticing offer she wants to transfer. Is there any British law that she would violate if she does this? Could the institution that she enrolled originally cancel her student visa with the Home Office?

hi there,
my question is this? i was refused entry clearance for 2 times already the first was in sept and the second was in november 2008. i appealed the decision of the ECO and in receipt of the letter stating that they forwarded my appeal to AIT on February 25, 2009. Until now i have not received any communication from AIT. Is there a chance for my appeal to be granted since the reasons for my refusals was i have not gained any relative education which i have and capacity to sustain my study. I have graduated A.B., L.l.B and one sem M.A. here in the Phils but previous to my application this was not stated. My sponsor has enough money to sustain my education….. Hope to receive your response…. Thank you so much.

hi there,
i would like to ask about the standard education required by the point based system tier 2 application since by husband has been denied for his application gaining 5pts as a graduate of pampanga agricultural college bachelor of science in agriculture, where in fact mamy of the graduates of the PAC are nw in uk working in dairy farms, for now he is waiting for the result of his appeal/administrative review.thank pls do give us advise. godbless

hi there,

i just want to inquire if i have the chance to be granted student visa by AIT for i have chosen to appeal the decision of the ECO decision in Manila. I dont have any Immigration lawyer based in UK who would defend and handle my case. And in case i receive another refusal based on my appeal, can i apply again for student visa using the tier4 category. Thank you for your immediate response. Thank you.

i hav been refused for student visa twice now i have enough funds to full fill under tier 4 and earlier rejcetions were on based of paragrah 57 and ielts and this time again i havnt given ielts and have been selected by oxford college of london for MBA program…so should i re apply for student vsa under tier 4 if got 40 points in my hand …if yes then do i need to write anything about previous refusals and ielts…would be egerly waiting to see your reply..thanks

hi! I was reading on all the tags, since the topic is about student visas, I hope that you will be able to give me some advice. My auntie just arrived from Phil with a student visa. She was sent by her placement officer at a residential home. Unexpectedly, she had no rpoper accomodatio so she stayed with some of the Romanians who also work in that residential home.

The next day, her employer came to see her and asked for her documents including, letter from the home office, reference, CV, passport and other relevant documents. She thought that they will just photocopy it but they didn’t give it back.

She worked normal hours 7.5 hrs a day without break and still no proper accomodation. She sleeps in a room without a bed, pillow or blanket. The room belongs to a a Romanian who was on holiday. she approached her employer and asked about the accomodation and for a contract, asked about her entitlements and her documents.

After a week nothing has changed. She was still staying in the same room and her documents was not given back to her. She contacted us and explained her situation,but she decided to wait for her employer so she can get her documents and arrange the accomodation. Her placement officer contacted him and was very furious because he found out that she has some relatives here in UK in which I personally don’t see the point why?

She contacted her employer to get her documents and tell him that she is not happy on the way she is being treated becuase she is working whole day without any breaks and without a proper accomodation. Her employer told her that he sent her documents to her placement officer and she should go and pick it up from her placement officer. They also told her that they will not pay her even if she worked for them for 1 week because she also have to pay for the accomodation. she rang her placement officer and told him that she wants to find a new workplace because of how she is being treated. Her placement officer was not very coperative, she’s staying with us at the moment but she still haven’t got her documents with her. They also told her that they can cacel her visa and send her back to the Philippines.

Could you please advice us on what to do…… =(

I know that.. my inquiry is not related on the topic… but we’re really struggling to get my auntie’s documents from her employer and placement officer… i will patiently wait for your advice mr. kelly..

It seems to me that the ECO does not understand the difference between “balance of probabilities” and “proof beyond reasonable doubt”. The former standard of proof is supposed to be used in deciding the various applications for entry clearance but from the tenor of their various decisions it appears as if they adopt the wrong standard of proving beyond reasonable doubt. The proof beyond reasonable doubt is a standard of proof in criminal matters wich is more stringent. By virtue of their various refusals, it seems they see every applicant for entry clearance to the UK as a potential criminal which is not suppose to be. Most of them fail to adopt reasonable approach to the evaluation of entry clearance applications hence they heap unecessary and baseless reasons for refusal of entry clearance applications. They dont really know the difference or the interpretations of the various standards of proof. These are subjects in the law of evidence which I dont think the UK Border Agency has ever taught them or enable them to appreciate.

hi,
i need some advice based on the fact that i applied for an EEA family permit and was refused and a right to appeal was given which i have done but now i have been offered an unconditional offer in a university in scotland including my tuition fees paid for by the student award agency scotland,please advice,i was told that my appeal would take a minimum of 6 months and i need to apply for a student visa in august ending,can i apply for another catergory of visa if i have an appeal on

my fiancee applied for a visitor visa to come to uk and meet my elderly mother and my family before we marry in Morocco he had return tickets and insurance and everything but the ECO in embassy in Rabat refused him to come on grouds that he has no proof he would return and that our relationship was in question.
Our relationship is not ne of the rules .this is the second application he has made

i applied a family visit visa dated june 10/09. could you tell me the telephone number to follow up my visa application.thank you.

An application for entry clearance as the wife of a person wth limited leave to remain was refused. The applicant appealed to the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal and the appeal was allowed. However the person concerned wants to wait because the Respondent has at least 28 days within which to apply for reconsideration although there is no indication to that effect yet.

Do you think that the Appelant can send down her Passport to the British Embassy, if nothing happens at the end of the 28 days?

hi,
my friend is asking for help because her son’s application for UK Visa has been denied again.
the 1st time they applied, it was for a dependent visa, but was denied because her son was no longer a minor. their appeal was also denied.

this time, they applied for a Family Visit, but was again denied. here is my friend’s email. –

fruitti only applied for 3 weeks family visit visa from october 17 to Nov 7( semestral break only) because he has to come back to davao to finish his course…october 26 is also the birthday of his only sister…. Emily Joyce ( birth certificate to be attached )

the question of money to be spent for just 3 weeks family visit is horrendous… the parents are willing to spend money just to be with their precious son jirah even for just 3 weeks. why do they have to question it?

he applied last 2006 for a Settelement Visa but was refused “due to overage and that he is not living under the most exceptional circumstances”…. the statement of the refusal saying that he is not dependent to his mother is a big lie….because Jirah has been dependent to his mother up to this time…

jirah has no asset because he is only a student and only relying to his parents support….and will graduate from his course 2011….

we will get a certification/letter from his school about the date for his graduation…

the decision of refusal is unfair and has no proper basis in judging Jirah’s intention …. they should not generalize everybody…. his intention is to come back to the phils to continue his studies by all means…

as regards to the comment that he only wants to work in england is very much untrue… there’s no much job now in england even for the locals how much more for a foreigner who hasnt got a proper document? having a family visit visa is very clear that he is not allowed to work…..no employer in england would employ jirah coz its illegal and incurs heavy fine….

as parents and sponsors, it was clearly stated in our letter of invitation that we will see to it that jirah will come back to the phils

the entry clearance officer should not play God in concluding that Jirah’s intention is not pure AND SINCERE…..

having denied on several occassions is a big blow to Jirah emotionally, psychologically and financially.

why cant they grant him a simple family visit visa?

–your early reply and advice on the matter will be highly appreciated. thank you so much.

My wife as just been refused a settlement visa. I got married last April’08 in Ghana and my wife and I have lived here since then. I have got a one year residents visa and my driving license. This year we applied for a settleiment visa and was refused and one of the things they refused on was that there was not enoth prove that we were living to gether. We sent them my driving license with our address on, a joint bank statment, paperwork of land we have purchased together and our marrige license stamped and signed by a Juge as we got married in court. We put down my name as being my wifes sponser and then they say there was no evedence so show I was willing to sponser my wife. I am a self employed taxi driver so I could not show pat slips but I gave them my NI number so they could check, but they just said that their was no prof that I was going or willing to look for work. I was born in the UK and so where my parents and their parents as far back as you can go. I have all ways worked and paid tax and have never been in trouble with the law. So how can some one who as never met me make such a comment. I fill that we are now made to be seconed class citizen in our own country if we marry out side the EU. EU citizens have more rights than we do to bring their wifes and familys in to the UK. We have put a appeal in and will waite and see what heppens. If any body as been through this and have any advise can they please let us know

my wife recetly got her refusal of entry clearance as the spouse of a british citizen i took it to the AIT and won the appeal. 15 weeks have now past and she still has not had notification to recive her visa i have contacted the embassy and sent them the appeal outcome but they refuse to accept my faxes and emails of the out come. what do i do next

Hello everybody,

I was refused student visa under tier 4 from BHC, Nigeria and then I had applied for admin. review. Now I am back in Mumbai, India. And I have received email from BHC, Nigeria to come to their office along with passport for visa issuance process. Now I cant go back to Nigeria as I have left my job there. Though I have sent them email detailing my position, is there any other way I can get visa issuance process done in Mumbai. Does anyone have an idea whether BHC can transfer my case to their Mumbai office?

Pls help urgently..

Good Day!
I just want to know why my visa has not been released yet? I submitted my documents for student visa last March 27,2009 and until now i have not received any feedback coming from my agency (Kirsten Student Development Inc.) nor the British Embassy. I have been contacting the British Embassy manila but no one’s answering it. On the other hand my agency told me they have been monitoring the British Embassy manila but they are not giving any reasons at all..I have no job at the moment since i quit when I applied for NVQ student. My documents were not returned yet. I am wondering what is the reason why i still don’t have my visa? I am 22 yrs. old, one of the many nurses in the Philippines who’s wanting to go and study in the UK. Can you please help me by answering my questions?

I will truly appreciate it if you can share with me the reasons why it take so long for processing the student visa. Thanks a lot!

Hi! I applied for a student visa under tier 4 at the British Embassy in Manila 3 weeks ago. My bank certificate was issued 5 months ago. I haven’t done it updated since the consultancy firm didn’t advice me about it. And what we have understood about the 28 day period is that…the account should at least reached a 28 days period or more before applying at the Embassy and if the account is not yet 28 days then we couldn’t apply for a student visa under tier 4. Then after applying at the Embassy, the following day, the consultancy firm called me and ask me to provide an updated bank certificate because they have found out that by getting a bank certificate on day 1, you should apply for a visa on day 28. What should I do? Do you think I will be granted a visa? The consultancy firm said that they will attach a letter together with a new bank certificate even if it will be submitted 3 weeks after the application at the Embassy.

i have a pending student visa application forwarded on Jully 17, 2009.To date i have no feed back on the status of my application. all my legal documents were not yet returned.how will i know the status of my application. was i refused or granted?

Dear Sir
I was pre-selected to enlist into the British army and was sent a call forward letter by the army, I contacted the UK embassy to apply for a visa to go and complete my selection process in the UK, I was told by the UK embassy to apply for a family visitors visa and of which I did, Later on I was issued a decision which was a refusals based on the point that My educational certificate is a false document and of which it is not false. I contacted the Cameroon GCE board who issued my certificate and I was given a proof of authentic document from the GCE Board, I later on contacted the UK embassy in my country and they asked me to bring the the proof from the GCE Board which I did handed it over to them hoping that they will call me and give me my certificate in which they retained in their office but its over 4 months and above I have not heard from them, each time I call they say they are waiting for a response from Ghana. My problem is that I just need my certificate back, if they are not willing to issue me the Visa they should provide my certificate back to me. Dear Sir Kindly advice me on what to do in order to have my certificate back. thank you.

Hi I have applied for a student visa teir 4, given all the required documents. Although, I have been charged with a criminal offence but have not been convicted as my court dates are later. The conditions have nothing to do with me traveling or studying. it is a level 1 charge. Would i get refused a student visa for the UK? I am a canadian.

I applied for a settlement visa and was denied.They refused on the balance of probabilites that i have not given enough proof that we do communicate on email and chat as i had indicated and also that i have not proved to them that the house that we will leave has enough space and it will not be over crowded.I sent tho them all tha necessary documents they asked me.I sent the appeal on august and till know i have not been contacted or have they told me that they recieved my appeal.I wouls like to know how lond it takes for an appeal to be overturned either at the embassy or in the uk?

My husband resigned from work last Wednesday Sept 16, 2009 for the reason that he had operation already in the heart and fresh back to work for one month but he cant do flying anymore as he is expose to the chemical/ fuel when fixing airplane and hard to breath.

Does my husbands resignation will affect my visa application even he is British with assets as well as I have also some assets and small buss in my country (Philippines)? I need to be with my husband as I dont want to happen again that he got heart attacked before twice without me.

Will be glad for your reply,,

hi,
my husband is a british national and i am bangladeshi and i applied for a sattlement visa in march 18 2009 and i was refused so i appealed against the decission and the refusal was overturned on the 29th of july and the embassy asked for my passport back. so i handed it in on the 30th july. they gave me an update date of 17th of august. but when i arrived to the vfs office on the 17th i was informed the passport is still at the british high commission. now i have no idea how long they are going to take or they havent informed me when they will return my passport.its 27th of september. i have been living away from my husband for over 6 months now which is a clear stress on our marriage and violation of human rights i think. is there anyway to find out any perticular date when i can recieve my passport back? or how long it usually take for the british high commission to process the required visa?

Hello. My NVQ application was refused by the ECO-Manila so I appealed to AIT through paper case.

How long will it take for their decision? What must I do? Please help. It took me more than a year now processing my application and I am losing hope.

Hi. Our visit visa was recently refused. we appealed and it turns out that the ECO has withdrawn his refusal. They have asked for the passports and tentative dates to visit. Can the ECO deny a visa again when we send our passports? do we have to send any more documents with the passport such as an air ticket etc? Also, we had paid the visa fees in full (for a 5 yr multiple entry visa) – can the ECO give a shorter duration visa? We already had a 6 months visa stamped last year and travelled on it too. How long do they take for granting a visa

Hello. I am a Uk employer who has been acting on behalf of our employee. After a successful work permit application we received a 60 month work permit back in December’08. But upon application for a visa in his home country our employee made a mistake on his form and it was rejected. After a lengthy appeal process we finally won our appeal by a senior immigration judge. we were overjoyed as you can imagine. But now the embassy want a new work permit because they say our permit has expired!! Will i be able to get a re print, am I in time? and if so what is the way of contacting that department? Many Thanks for listening.

Hi All,

All applicants be aware of the UK Boarder Agency!!!!. They are abusing their office. Even if you provide them with all required information, they still love to see you refused. They are making fun out of people and creating avenues for other sources of income creation. Its a game lottery. One will only understand by experience. Hear say is not as effective as becoming a victim of UK visa refusal.

Most refusals are not based on facts but rather feelings.

My advice, is that the UK is not progressing. Educational standards are falling, the system is corrupt and chaotic. Only idiots still believe that the UK is still like before. It is no more. Once you get in after going through hell, then you realize it is all not worthy.

Dear friends,
I read through and really understood that immigration rules are becoming more complex.
Instead of the British authorities to work on internal control modalities to manage and control migration, they are fight each other and under such circumstances the ECO have all become wounded leopards read to kill you psychologically. They are not real professionals. They are like wild animals that are programmed to reap people’s money.

Objective judgement is not part of their culture but who is to blame….the government of course. It’s rather unfortunate but that Island is sinking and even not already cursed, would be a cursed Island soon and everything on it will be cursed. They only give visas to corrupt people like themselves. How can you determine who is genuine or not. It is absolutely rediculous. Tier 4….rubbish!
Never trust them, would be my professional advice but if you want to apply safely go through a British legal firm.ONLY BRITISH TO BRITISH CAN UNDERSTAND THE BRITISH. NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW WHAT THEY HAVE SIGNED UNDER THE TABLE. BUT any one risking to apply, thinking they have every thing that is put on paper does not work. Even you can be refused for not crossing you ‘t’ or putting a dot above your eye. Then you have the opportunity to appeal.By the time the decision is taken you find out was it really necessary to go all through this. Anyway experience is a good teach though a bad master. Good luck to all future applicants. Nevertheless just make such you go through an acknowledged migration lawyer, otherwise you can get a heavy blow between the eyes. Cheers…dessy boy…British
