Uk Visa - Visa Appeal Process

it is very difficult to defend such cases,  you should hire a brilliant immigration lawyer for this.  falsification  of docs is a grievous offense one that the embassy takes seriously.  your cousin must convince the judge as to the circumstances which lead to your cousin's innocence on the false submission of that pertinent doc.

no need to contact the law firm. since you are the appellant you are allowed to make follow up/inquiry. just quote your post ref from notice of decision, your bday, country of origin that's it and then wait for about 4 weeks. bec. it usually take some time for your appeal to be uploaded in their database. best of luck!

Hello all,

I was wondering if you guys know how long it takes for the visa office in lagos to issue a visa. You see, my mother won her appeal for a visiting visa back in february and the judge instructed the visa office to issue her a visa but she has still not heard anything from them. She has tried to go to their office but they would not let her in, their phone numbers are not working and nobody is answering my emails. Do you guys know what step I can take next? I normally wouldn't mind them taking so long and I am very grateful to God that we won the appeal but my mother is supposed to be here for my wedding next month so now I'm just panicking/praying.

Thanky you

Your appeal will now be forwarded to the AIT by the post (British Embassy) if you have submitted the AIT-2 form to them.

Thank you very much for your response. I have received an emailed response from them telling me that under the data protection act, they cannot give me information about my mother unless she has given them written permission. So now I will, get her to email them again quoting her reference number and we'll see where we go from there. I shall keep you informed so that anyone in my position can benefit.

my uncle re-applied for UK work permit entry clearance on 22nd of April, 2009 to my surprised he has not heard anything from the embassy. When he checked d status on the UKVAC Webiste this weekend it says (My visa application has been forwarded to the British High Commission). It's taking more than three weeks now and his  first application which was refused based on the fact that they tried to contact the employer but he was not responding 2 their questions and they believed that the work permit was not acquired in a genuine way (which is definately genuine) was sent back in 10 working days. Though his Solicitor in uk called him that they called on 13th of may to confirm their letter. Please kindly advise me through the look of things now is he going to be issued the visa. he has been in uk for 2 on working holiday before coming back to naija to apply for the work permit entry clearance (he got the work permit itself in uk). PLEASE YOUR URGENT AND CANDID ADVICE IS NEEDED.[b] Thanks[/b]

Can anyone in the house let me know what is happening at british high commission nigeria concerning my brother uk visa application it's has been like a month he submitted but till now no response from them, though it's another application when the first was refused. Is the IT problem they av that is affecting it or what? Someone hinted me dat maybe it's sucessful and in queue for approval.  Plz let me know what is happening.

PLEASE, MY QUESTION IS FOR EVERY ONE.
(1) IS IT ENOUGH REASON TO DENY SOMEBODY A STUDENT VISA BECAUSE HE HAS NO ENOUGH MONEY IN HIS OWN BAMK ACCOUNT, EVEN THOUGH HIS FINANCIAL SPONSOR HAS ENOUGH MONEY AND PROVE OF AVAILABILITY OF FUND?
(2) CAN VISA BE DENIED ON THE GROUND THAT THE APPLICANT HAS NO STRONG ENVESTMENTS THOUGH HE IS BEING SPONSORED?
(3) HOW CAN ONE SUFFICIENTLY ADDRESS THESE ISUES AT APPEAL?

THANKS YOU ALL

1. that it was not clear how the course will benefit me

2. that my financial circumstances is not proportionate to the course i intend to study

3. that the financial circumstances of my sponsor was not clear
