can a statement stop a visa

Post by winters » Sat May 31, 2008 1:49 pm

hi im trying to get a visit visa for my partner who lives in morocco i went for advice and i was told that the only thing that would fail the visa is the fact that my statement's show i use a overdraft with this being the only reason thay would fail the visa. As i have poor health at the moment my partner really needs to be with me is this information i was given right and also would i be able to get my partner here without the use of my bank statements ?

we both are greatfull for any help that is given

The chief tests are:

1. Reason to return.

2. Accomodation.

3. Finances.

4. Genuine Tourist.

Satisfy those and u'll be ok.

Personally I thinkthis my difficult, whilst folks have no problem bringing partners over on VV's; others struggle.

The way you are approaching this to me hints at settlement, remember the visit visa is for visiting/touring, not living together.

So I would concentrate on thinking along the lines of a visit, or short holiday. That way you would only need to show finances for what it is - a visit.

But, reading between the lines I suspect you are looking to live together for the full six months term of the visa, for which you'll stuggle to pass the financial test IMO, but even more daunting, the fact the ECO may view the application as an attempt to settle, and deny the visa.

Why not go for a fiance visa?
