call from gatwick immigration

[lottie73]

I sponsored my Tunisia partner to come over to UK, he told me his visa got refused in December. Gatwick immigration have just called me to find out if I was expecting him & if I'd known about his 3 week visit to the UK over Christmas & the New Year. They are refusing him entry this time as he stayed with another female last time and he's not using his visa correctly.
Is their any other way he could have got a visa? (I think not as immigration had my details as the sponsor & they said his visa had been granted in December, but wanted to check)
They informed me that he stayed with another women, how would they know this?
What will his options at immigration be now?
It doesn't add up, I feel like an idiot and in December I had his baby!

It sounds as if he used you to sponsor the visa, which was granted, but he chose to tell you it had been refused. For whatever reason they decided to ask him further questions when he arrived this last time, and probably found incriminating documents in his luggage, and discovered that he was not visiting you. They will therefore have cancelled his visa and refused him entry because he allegedly used deception to obtain the visa, or there was a change of circumstances since it was issued (i.e. he is "visiting" someone else).
His options are:- (1) he has a right of appeal against the visa cancellation, and does not have to leave the UK until the appeal is heard, which may be some months. They may seek to detain him pending the hearing, but he'll probably get bail. If he tries to contact you and you feel threatened in any way, inform the police and Gatwick Immigration immediately.
(2) With the current unrest in Tunisia, no doubt some hooky solicitor will put it into his head that an asylum claim would be a good wheeze. However unmerited the claim, he would have the right to stay in the UK until it's been considered and the appeal process exhausted.

My understanding is that he was refused entry and returned to Tunisia?
His chances of being granted a visa as your partner in th future are slim as the ECO will probably consider he has no intentions of living with you in the UK.

The OP says they are refusing him entry, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he's been removed

You're right Mr Rusty...he could still be sitting at the airport 'airside'.
