Wife Visa Rejected Mine Still Under consideration

[chandmuhammad]

Hello, I hope you doing fine. I applied for UK visit visa with my spouse. My spouse wife is rejected two days ago whereas mine is still under consideration. I went to collect my spouse passport at VFS asking about my application they said its still under consideration. Is it normal ? I suspect I might also get rejected. I read alot on this forum but didn't find any similar case. Can someone have some experience or knowledge of it like what could possibly be reason behind this much delay though we submitted biometrics at very same time.

FYI, its been five days since my wife's visa rejection that we got on email.

What was the reason for the refusal of your wife's visitor visa application

[chandmuhammad]

The reason is as follows:

REASONS FOR REFUSAL OFFICIAL NRA v 1.0 You have applied for a visa to visit the UK. In deciding whether you meet the requirements of Appendix V: of the Immigration Rules for visitors (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration ... sitorrules), I have considered: • your application and any additional relevant information you have provided with it • your immigration history The decision I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of paragraph(s) V4.2 of Appendix V. • You state you are travelling to the UK, for a 6-day visit. In assessing your eligibility for entry to the UK, I have considered your personal and financial circumstances as evidenced by your application form and supporting documents. • You also state you are travelling with your spouse, and that he will sponsor your visit to the UK. However, I must be satisfied with your circumstances before considering anything else. • You state you are unemployed and spend XXXX.XX XXX (£ XXX) per month on expenses. • However, with no further information, it is difficult to ascertain how you support yourself daily, and whether you personally have access to these types of funds. I am therefore not satisfied that you have provided an accurate portrayal of your circumstances. This not only undermines the credibility of your application but causes me to doubt your intention in proposing to travel to the UK. • Given the above I am not satisfied that you are genuinely seeking entry for a purpose that is permitted under the visitor route and that you will leave the UK at the end of your visit. Your application is therefore refused under paragraph V 4.2 (a) and (c) of the Immigration Rules.


if you ask me the reason is bizarre she is my wife and unemployed and dependent. Normally I see the husband application is rejected first and then wife's application and all refusal reason are based upon husband's visa application (**If wife is dependent)
As of now 6 days passed still my application under consideration.

You state you are unemployed and spend XXXX.XX XXX (£ XXX) per month on expenses.

To be able to understand the verdict, this is they key part. What are we to do with the X's?

Being dependent of someone is not an issue for a visit visa application, apparently the issue is that you didn't provide enough - or any - financial evidence to explain this dependency.

However, with no further information, it is difficult to ascertain how you support yourself daily, and whether you personally have access to these types of funds

The letter seems to be indicating that you didn't provide any financial evidence for your wife: bank statements, etc.

Actually it's amount that she spends monthly. Its 300 pounds equivalent to my country currency.

I did submitted all the relevant documentation that includes bank statement, properties documents, car ownership documents.

Furthermore, I don't understand why her application got rejected whereas mine still under consideration that bothering me I was the main Applicant.

I didn't mention about my travel history before I am travelling to UK from 2006. My 5 year multiple entry visa for UK just got expired in June 2024 I was just renewing it and applied for my wife also this time around. But they rejected her and mine still in process

Are these under your or your wife's name?

Now here is more relevant details. Your visa might still be approved because you have a travel history to the UK and very recently expired visa as well. Your visa might most likely be granted. However you spouse has no such history. She has no income yet she spends £300 monthly from where? You've not conveniently explained her source of funds.
Car ownership isn't an asset.

If your visa is approved, what you should do is to reapply for her. State that you're fully sponsoring your spouse. Add your visa page to show that you'll be travelling together. A cover letter has to detail how she gets money if it's from you or from where.

Whatever your next step would be would be determined by your outcome.

That's the issue here.

UKVI wants to see financial evidence of your wife - under her name. It doesn't matter she's your dependant, every applicant needs to demonstrate (with documented evidence) how they support themselves. The rejection letter from UKVI is clearly saying that.

Check other posts from applicants who are unemployed or retired and dependent on others and got their visit visas approved.

Thank you very much indeed for all of your replies I am starting to get sense what went wrong. Now I am just waiting and hoping my visa gets approved. Thanks again.

Cheers

Like I said previously, you're a renewal, so most likely straightforward. No email is definitely a positive sign.

[chandmuhammad]

My apologies for not replying. Yes, my visa was approved. I will now reapply for my wife considering all points you all guys mentioned. Thank you very much indeed for guidance and help.
