Mgb I really appreciate your help but on what grounds I should appeal in eu n solvit. I did complain once n they closed my file saying french embassy consider our application as marraige of convenience.
Visa handbook C(2010) 1620 final part III
3.8. Refusal to issue a visa
.
.
The authorities must be able to build a convincing case while respecting all the safeguards of the Directive which must be correctly and fully transposed in national law. The decision refusing the visa application on grounds of public policy, public security or public health or on grounds of abuse or fraud must be notified in writing, fully justified (e.g. by listing all legal and material aspect taken into account when concluding that the marriage is a marriage of convenience or that the presented birth certificate is fake) and must specify where and when the appeal can be lodged.
Did the french embassy fully justified their decision in writing? Simply saying so is not enough.
