not straightforward application

Post by Zainsaleems » Fri Aug 14, 2020 4:14 pm

Hi everyone.

I applied for uk tier 4 visa on 4th aug 2020. Today on 14 aug i received email from home office that my application is not straightforward and will take longer time.
I want to know will it mean a refusal of application. My cgpa is 3.78 (87%) also i have been awarded with 2 gold medals in bachelors. I have submitted certificate of my medals as well. But i also have previous uk student visa refusal back in 2015.

Email says below.

Thank you for applying for a UK visa. Your visa application has been received and is under consideration. We aim to process non settlement applications within 15 working days (unless you have opted for the Priority Visa service), and settlement applications within 60 working days.

Unfortunately, the processing of your application has not been straightforward and we will be unable to decide your application within our customer service targets. We are continuing to work on your application and aim to make a decision as soon as possible.

We will write to you again if there is any change to this. Please do not attend the Visa Application Centre until you have been advised that your application has been decided and that your passport is ready for collection.

Kind Regards,

No. It means what is says.
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.

It means it will take a bit longer to process your application. Many people get this and it doesn't mean you will be refused. It's just a way for them to keep you updated about the progress. No need to panic or anything.

Hi everybody

I applied for uk tier 4 visa on 4th of August.

Had biometric and interview on 4th aug in vfs islamabad

On 14 aug i received an email from home office Sheffield that my application is not straightforward and will take time.

On 17 aug i received email for interview. After 3 hour i recieved another email stating following

"Please ignore your email regarding an interview on 21St August 2020, sorry for any confusion caused by this we have your completed interview on our file which was conducted 04/08/2020".

Now it's 24th aug today and haven't received any respons on my application.
Does anyone have idea how long its going to take.

Could you share why your previous visa was refused? A lot depends on the reasons your previous visa was refused.

It was refused because of credibility interview. The ECO comment that I'm not a genuine student.

But it was my fault because i didn't prepare for interview.

But now my circumstances has been changed. I have completed my bachelors now and have received two gold medals. Also this time interview goes very well.

They wont consider your gold medals. But they will compare your current interview with the last one and make a decision. That is why they are asking for time. But I think you should not worry if your current interview went well.

Hi james. Yes . It was skype interview conducted at vfs centre. It took around 60 min. Though there was only few questions. The reason it took long time was the interviewer lady was writing so slow. Otherwise it could have ended in 20 min
