Judge grilled HO representative in FTT

Post by marketing786 » Sat Jan 17, 2015 12:18 pm

My application time line is as follows:
applied sep 2013
interview feb 2014
refused aug 2014
FTT november 2014
still waiting for decision

In my refusal case worker wrote a big remarks letter on our genuinity checked every of our record from HMRC companies house immigration history previous courses we registered in.

In court HO representative accepted her self that if thats the case then appeal should be sent for reconcideration.

The interviewer made a remark on our interview sheet that we used deception becaiuse after one inetrview the other candidate went to the toilet and he might have used phone about questions asked. I dont have a proof but i think they used deception.

when HO representative told that to judge the judge just grilled HO person saying that if you work for border agency doesnt allow you to accuse come ones personality when you cannot prove.

In our refusal case worker raised a point that business plan, market research missing, experiance letters missing, poor knowledge of understanding, marketing not good,

where our answer was that there were two routes investment and invested in invested route requirements are different and did produce management account contract copy business statement shows that the money came in from client which shows business in running form. we dont see a need to send a business plan and market reserach and experiance letters for such business which is already securing contract although if it was investment route we should have. But if case worker was in such a need to see our plans could have asked us to send so. Our barrister showed them policy guidence for case worker that the cae worker was compled to ask for documents if needed (Note: this doesnt cover cases applied after oct 2013).

At one more point case worker said that we did MBA and doing business in marketing and HO representative made the point that marketing and MBA are two different things. Judge informed HO person that there is no MBA completed in the world without studying marketing. HO showed my transcript that id doesnt say marketing where I told her transcript showing my 6 modules not subjects. I have studied three marketing subject in module strategic management. My dissertation was in marketing.

In marketing question I replied that i am a small business worth 50,000 where case worker suggesting me to market my business in marketing publications which i dont see as ROI. Only one advert in a well known magazine will cost me thousands. Case worker suggesting me things which are not fisible.

The judge allowed me to talk on every single point and it took me 2.5hrs to explain everything because case worker raised 245dd.

HO asked me questions about market research and business plan marketing strategy different contracts and then said thats it. She told the judge that they are very well prepared now because they came in for appeal but were not prepared at the time of application.

Appeal someup HO representative asked judge to dismiss appeal where earlier her self accepted that it should go fo re concideration.
our barrister: Appeal should be allowed.

Decision still waiting.

Hi

Are you applying for 50K or 200k?
are you applying within the Uk or outside?
have you submitted any business plan initially?
