Help regarding dependant application

[rajbhanu300]

Dear Members/Gurus,

I am applying for my extension along with dependents. I am confused in dependent application section k,k18 where it says 'have you ever been refused entry clearance, leave to enter or leave to remain in uk?
I got my initial tier 1 after winning an appeal so what shall I say yes or no?

Your responses are highly appreciated.

Thanks

No. Wining in appeal means you were not refused a visa

Thank you very much Zimba88.

But they must have refused, prior to the appeal?

I think that it's safer to answer "yes" and explain that the subsequent appeal overturned the refusal.

Click yes and explain it

Winning Appeal meant that CW made a mistake not you. Why would you put yes.

Answer should be No.

Thanks vinny,Aliraza12,KAKA-MAG for your suggestions. After these contradicting answers I am really confused as to what can be the right ans. Hope anyone on this forum who successfully extended their visa with similar condition can help me to arrive a decision.

Looking to hear from you.

The answer to that question is by no means critical. This will NOT affect the outcome of your application at all. The answer to this question will not change your immigration history
You were refused a visa initially and won in appeal. You can say 'Yes' and explain 'approved visa in appeal'. You should not waste time on questions that are not important on the form.

As a general rule, though, applicants should be encouraged to disclose absolutely everything that have ever happened, including when they are not strictly speaking answering to the question asked. For example, applications for entry clearance contain a question as to whether the applicant was ever refused a visa application. Strictly speaking, this relates to application for entry clearance, not for leave to remain. However, an applicant who has never been refused a visa, but has been refused leave to remain, would be better off disclosing the leave to remain refusal too, to be on the safe side and ensure that s/he cannot, under any circumstances, be accused of deceiving.

Thanks Zimba88 and vinny for clearing the confusion.

Dear Members/Gurus,

I am about to apply for my extension and while discussing dependent application with a friend, I am in a confusion whether we have to provide any evidence for relationship like marriage certificate or birth certificate if they are here since 5 years and been my dependents in previous two visa categories?

Your quick response is highly appreciated.

Thanks
