Guys, I wonder if you could please help me. I've read on numerous occassions that UKBA will send the ECHR letter to the applicant. I'm very curious to find out that what exactly this letter is? and how can you make Home Office to send you the letter. Thanks P.S. My friends case was refused along wit...

sure, they had asked me why i wanted to visit the states, why i was not working (the answer was candid..."because i don't need to", so the officer took a look at the bank statements and smiled :wink: ), what was my husband's job. that's it. good luck Thanks - very useful - last thing How long were ...

hi got the visa in the end, my circumstances were the same described in post #1 - so no job and no ties except my husband's. i guess that the decisive factors for my case were basically 2: 1) my passport was full of visas from previous travels, even in "rich" countries like japan, new zealand and c...

Legend786, With all due respect, if you are committed to each other then why deciding to get married at the last minute? You were fully aware that your visa will run out, then why delay? There is no way you would get married before your visa expiry as I believe it takes up few weeks for the appointm...

I had a first hand experience and can only tell you by my experience. You can read my old posts etc. After refusal I involved Solvit and the first thing they said to me was if you are deciding to appeal then HO cannot consider the reconsideration request. So I told Solvit to go ahead and tell HO to ...

Hi bud,

Withdraw your appeal and trust me if your documents are ok and legit then no problems.

Trust me.

Thanks

Brother & sister and so on comes under extended family member and to some extent different approach. With regards to immediate family members I.e spouse/ kids/ parents under one umbrella but for parents proof of dependency.

Hi Bud, Thanks again for your reply. So caseworker is wrong in establishing the relationship as he considered my mum and dad as extended family members - for which you DO need to provide proof of dependency either in same household or prior to entering UK. They are visa national . They had tourist v...

Thanks for your reply. However we've proved dependency for the past 5 months since they've been in the UK. I.e transferring funds from our account to my dad's bank account here in the UK. For the direct family members I don't think we need to provide dependency prior to entering the UK? circumstance...
