Appeal or Reapply help!!!!

Hi everyone,

I've recently been refused on my Spouse visa application

The letter stated the reason for refusal:

Eligibility English Language Requirement
" You do not meet the eligibility English language requirement paragraphs E-LTRP.4.1. to 4.2 because you have not provided evidence that you have achieved a qualification in English to level A1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages as stated in Appendix ) of the Immigration Rules. It is also noted that you have yet to complete your degree at the University of **** and therefore this cannot be used to demonstrate that you meet the English requirement. It is noted that none of the exceptions detailed in E-LTRP.4.1 to E-LTRP 4.2 apply in your case. You, therefore, fail to fulfil E-LTRP 4.1 to E-LTRP 4.2 of Appendix FM of the Immigration Rules "

The situation is that I'm completing my University Degree and I thought that it would have been enough to prove for English Requirement, however, the truth is that I have to completed and hold the degree before the date of the application.

I have completed a University Foundation Programme at a College in the UK, QCF level 3 equivalent in 2015.

My questions are:

1. Can I use my University Foundation Programme certificate as an "Academic Qualification that was taught or researched in English" to prove my knowledge of English?

2. If I could, should I appeal my case or reapply a new application?

3. If I appeal, am I appealing under "A decision to refuse a human rights claim for entry clearance" or which one?

Please help me as soon as possible as I only have 14 days to appeal!

Thank you so much!!!

In the absence of A1 level of English test your achieved qualification must be a fully completed degree at least of bachelor level from public university.

Either sit in a home office approved tests (quickest way) or wait for the completion of your degree (probably will take longer). No way around mate.

Thanks for the advice!

I'm graduating in July 2018, do you think I should wait until then and reapply?

And do you know if I reapply, do all the documentation have to be renewed to date as in 28days of application submission or I can use those old ones that I have applied for my first application?

Thanks!

Yes you should wait if you can until you got your degree. You can't use those 28+ days old documents especially relating to finances, accommodation etc in your new application as they shouldn't be older than 28 days.
