Hello everyone. I'm new here and I need some advice please. My son age 8 applied for an eea family members visa recently,And he was refused. He went to Ikeja to submit ,and I sent all original documents (pay slips,DNA test,employment letter, tenancy agreement, letter from landlord etc) to Sheffield the same day. To my surprise, I received an email exactly a week, that a decision has been made.
The refusal letter states the reason he was refused is because we didn't include evidence of employment in the UK. So they are not sure if I am exercising treaty rights in the uk. But everything is with them in Sheffield. They didn't even bother to check because the decision was made just 5 day after. He was given a right to appeal. Please does anyone know how long it takes to appeal or should I put in a fresh application?

Hello everyone. Please I need some help. I was advised here to make a fresh application instead of going thru appealing. MY problem now is that I haven't received my original documents yet from Sheffield. No email from Sheffield to confirm they got my documents and no email that my documents has been sent. MY question is, is it possible to make a fresh application now, since they still have my documents. Or should I wait till I get the documents back. Thanks

Abbylove:
Buhari will bring it with him for you nah.
I go give am the cash.

No worry

Funmijj3, Did you actually send with your initial application self-addressed envelope for them to return your document as they require from the spouse applicant? Alternatively, send an email to Sheffield (VisaShefield@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk)telling them your predicament that you wanted to reapply and this document is holding you back or reapply with the photocopies you have and writing a note that the original documents are with them. I do empathise with you and understand the emotional and the psychological trauma you are passing through. You will be relieved soon
JUST A SUGGESTION. I HOPE THIS HELPS.

Visa refused on grounds that we are long distance and they think we are related. Thank you for all your input and support. I'm not sure if an appeal is even worth it.

What kind of sick decision is that? Please stay strong, They want to put you and your partner off the whole process. Get plenty of evidence! Put birth certificates if you have to! Get family to give references. Address all their reasons! Let them know how detrimental the decision was. Pray and then re-apply.

God be with you

Marriage certificate, chat logs, call logs, emails, pictures before, during and after wedding?
