Hi Everyone

Got letter today saying that can't expedite my application as they have to do further enquiries. Is regarding English language requirement as media coverage for abuse of English language requirement and we have to hold some applications they For further enquiries and invite for an interview shortly.

Has anyone else had an interview. What would they ask, I had my masters degree from university of east London and also provided marks sheet. very worried please advise I think few members had issues with toiec but I have nothing with toiec.

Thanks in advance Ali

Hi mate if you don't use toiec why they holding your file ?

Hi mate I couldn't get that if you have a master degree from UEL ? Still query about you English very strange , shall I ask you one thing if you don't mind you studied at UEL directly or you got your degree from UEL while studied in any other institute ? .

Best wishes and Regards

Hi

Thanks for quick response from you guys. I dont know why there are holding my file on the basis of english language. I have studied directly from UEL and got degree. But ive done dissertation only at UEL. My first two semesters were exempted because i had 2 bachlors degree, 2 advance diplomas and previous work experience. Has anyone eles got interview recently? What will they ask? I have no history of toiec and never used toeic in any applications. I was thinking to withdraw application and submit again with fresh english language course. I spoke to one solicitor as well but he said dont withdraw, i can take your case from here and would write a letter and prepare for interview. No sure what to do these solocitors are after money end of the day. Please any suggestion. I called my uni today and asked them to send me letter confirming my course and degree which is on its way now. Please help guys.

Thanks Ali

After waiting for 5months, I had my documents today but I was refused for my long stay. The following is my story:

According to them I have 85days breaks. I applied for Tie4 in 2009 and after waiting for two months , my application was rejected because one of my dependent fees was declined. I submitted the same application again within 28 days and this time , my application was again rejected after a month that the old application has been used. I was advised to resubmit with new edition of the application . At last I was granted a Tier 4 in 2010. I am confused .

At the moment I still have one month visa as a student . What should I do.

[msk8]

please Can some one enter my time line ?
msk
applied on 12/11/14, acknowledgment 16/11/14, bio inv 27/11/15 bio done 27/11/15

[msk8]

Can MP help me

Use all options like social forums, MP, solicitors, I think even case worker will give you the right of the appeal if your visa is finishing next month if he wants to stick with his refusal than to grant you a visa .
Wish u good luck , be hopeful, I know its easy said than done, But I also believe U will get it as every one does

[sa428]

Can MP help me

[msk8]

Thank. i was not given right to appeal which means i have to reapply .

I think reapply will not make the difference. Therefore get an expert opinion as it will take another 4 months and the possibility of the same out come. In my opinion write a letter to the case worker with some kind of facts to establish that you should be given the grant than the refusal. I heard if the right of appeal is not there, still there is a right of the appeal. It's UK not tumbaktoo!!!
I hope this will help

@sa428, Dear (1)recheck, when your dependent fees was declined, was there enough money in your bank account to establish it was your fault or their fault. If the money was there in your bank but they could not take them, then your case is 99% solved. If not, then go to a good solicitor and give the reason why you could not pay, a reason could be a writing mistake, you should know that. (2) the second point is dependent on the first one, If the first point is your fault then the second will be considered as yours.
All these are my opinions, I suggest get an expert opinion. Also senior members should comment on it , I hope!!

Spread sheet is live,

Thanks msk8 but I keep getting the same error message from Google Drive. I have tried everything and this spreadsheet has kept me sane. I applied on Nov 2014

I just tried again using my laptop and it worked. Probably because I have been using my phone all along.
Thanks so much everyone. Really appreciate it

[msk8]

Dear members and readers of this forum,
I am reader of this forum for the last 2 months, I am visiting it at least once a day.
I am thankful to the creator and moderators of this site. Also the participants. I think its a value addition in social life and should stay alive. The google spread sheet is a bonus on top.
Wow! a kind of intelligence, integration and awareness.
Many thanks

You r welcome
You can tell them where you born and your nationality, they knew it don't they? So write it. also if your parents are here or there, tell them or if your family(wife or kids) tell them where they are. also you can write that your friends are here(UKI) or there(Pk) It will tell if there is any ambiguity or about your honesty I think, My opinion I could be wrong

[imi99999]
