UK Visit visa with no right of appeal and what can be done?

Post by opokuqb » Mon Dec 07, 2009 10:44 am

An application for UK visitors visa was made in a UK embassy outside UK.The application was refused with no right of appeal.the refusal letter indicated that there was a fraudulent document and further applications would be refused until after 10 years.The document is not fraudulent as claimed by the embassy and want exoneration.since they gave no right of appeal and the indication of further refusal in the future until 10 years..I would like to clear my name and prove that d document was genuine.i would like to know if i can complaint to the tribunal or what do to get the case heard by a higher authority or body for a review of the case.what are the options available.Thank you guys for your answers

It is one thing to refuse a visit visa application, but it is very unfair on people such as yourself to impose a 10-year ban without a right of appeal, and I think that one day a High Court judge will say so.
If you are denied a right of appeal you can seek a Judicial Review of the decision in the High Court, but this can be a very expensive procedure, and a solicitor is likely to ask you to pay several thousand pounds up front before lodging a case.
You need to take legal advice in any case, and the first step is to prove that the document alleged to be false is not so. Your solicitor should write to the Entry Clearance Manager of the Embassy which made the decision, presenting all the arguments why it was wrong and ask for a reconsideration. In particular reference to the ban, you need to say that as you have no other remedy, if it is not lifted you will ask for a Judicial Review.
If you can't prove that the suspect document is genuine, there isn't much you can do.
