UK visitor visa refusal

Post by Alpha20 » Sat Jul 04, 2015 11:42 pm

I had recently applied for UK visitor visa and I was refused the visa . Here's the test of visa refusal letter .

I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet requirements v4.2 appendix v because you have submitted a hotel booking from booking.com to confirm your intended stay at -- hotel however this booking does not contain details of online confirmation and therefore I can not be satisfied that you intend to stay where you have proposed.

You have submitted an employment letter from -- to confirm your employment in --. However I not that you reside in ksa under the sponsorship of your father it is not clear from your application why you have regularized your stay in ksa

And as such I cannot be satisfied that your circumstances are as claimed or that you are traveling for period and purpose as stated . Any future application you make will be considered on their individual merits however you are likely to be refused unless you provide compelling new evidence with your next application . In relation to this decision there is no right of appeal or right to administrative review.

After all of this I am pretty confused about how to deal with these issues . I plan to reapply but i can't understand what all I should I do to prevent any further refusal of visa . I hope someone can someone can help out in this regard

Depend on which UK visitor visa u did apply for .
If you applied for a general visitor visa I advice you. to make a direct booking through a phone call or email. Or if u know some one there In the UK who can do it in person in the city you travelling to will be better(Cos the UK border agency they don't believe on thos booking website as booking.com .)
But if you applying for a familly visitor visa you should ask your relatife for a accommodation proof as tenancy agreement or property deed including invitationn letter mentioning they inviting you to stay in their house for the period of your vacation
About the employment thing and ur dad sponsorship I didn't really understand that.
What did You present with ur application regarding that's!

Apply tier 2 ukvisa after visitor visa refusal

Post by Alpha20 » Sat Aug 22, 2015 8:31 am

I had recently applied for UK visitor visa in June 2015 and was refused the same on the grounds of immigration history . Following which my employers in UK issued me a certificate of sponsorship for tier 2 visa and I am planning to apply for the same . I would like to clarify the following

Should I clarify the issues raised in my previous UK visitor visa application refusal when I make application for tier 2 visa ?

What all documents should I provide with my application ?

Should I have to submit my original Ielts test report , as I have only one copy ?

What is wrong with your immigration history? You will need to provide more detail for anyone to provide you with advice.

I stay in Saudi Arabia and since I have been born here , I live under the residence permit of my father .For the past three years , I have working here and as per the local rules, I should have my residence permit in name of my employer . So , subsequently I applied for a transfer of sponsorship three years back and it has still not been completed due to bureaucratic delays . So when I applied for visitor visa to UK they asked me why I am under sponsorship of my father ,if I am an employee of an organization and why haven't I regularized till now if I use their exact words .

Residence permit

Post by Alpha20 » Wed Sep 16, 2015 11:10 pm

I am applying for tier 2 UK visa from Saudi Arabia and I am an Indian national . I had applied for UK visitor visa 2 months back and was refused as ECO had put in the visa refusal letter as to if I was employed in Saudi Arabia why I hadn't regularized my stay . I am confused now as currently I am on the residence permit of my father and I haven't yet been able to change my sponsorship to that of my employer , so I wonder will it affect my tier 2 UK visa application and will I need to explain it in my application
