Re: Dependent (spouse) visa refusal.

AR is the process for when UKVI had made an error. In this case they have not made an error as a false document was submitted.

I can't send her to India as she is completely dependent on me. Your partner/spouse can give you a mutual agreed sole custody o...

Does this involve either the image of you or your spouse being photo-shopped into the photograph? If so, what reason would the photographer have to do this? :?:
