Hmmmm...No markings, no symbols or inscriptions. No gifts or provision to aid them in the afterlife either. The Egyptians strongly believe in the afterlife, and these ones clearly weren't meant to continue living in the afterlife. The movie "gods of Egypt (2016)" tried to mirror this practice.

Most likely sacrificed. One of the skulls showed it was hit by a sharp instrument - maybe there was a struggle or resistance. They were most likely buried alive.

Similar to what happened with mine last month. My form was read wrong by the ECO and came up with all sorts of nonsense that had nothing to do with me.

ekpotek:
I am not familiar with application document submission in your Bleep country. In Nigeria all documents weather original or photocopied are scan to UKVI and returned to applicant on spot.

LOL. Submitted original documents. Didn't mention my location for privacy purposes. But I'm in Western Europe. Thanks for your help. I'll reapply tomorrow.

ekpotek:
If you still plan to have your vacation reapply ASAP. Address the initial refusal, by stating:
1. You have by now spent a year session in your studies affirming that you are bonafide student in XXXX university undertaking xxxx programme which you also supported with xxxx documents in your last application.

2. That the ECO did not see your legalized translation of your confirmation letter, which you have added again to this application. I suggest you mark boldly on the translated and original confirmation letter for the ECO to know.

Review your school admission documents to see if there is anyway you have indicated your mum as as a sponsor for your master studies. The ECO may have access to information about you that you are not aware from your previous UK application. If your mum was sending you money provide document to support this. If not then also provide document to counter the statement of the ECO (sponsorship document)

Thank you so much! I'll reapply this coming week. Blessings!
Please, final question- all the documents I submitted were originals, I guess I'd have to reapply with originals? Because I made copies for keeps.

ekpotek:
What was the reasons for your first refusal 6 month ago and was the issues addressed in your second application?

Good evening sir
1. They said I had only began my studies and planned to visit the UK for a month. It was the end of my first semester.
2. They stated my confirmation letter from school was not in English but I attached a legalized official English translation that was overlooked by the ECO.
I am doing a two-year masters program and I am done with my first year already.
Could not reapply then because my holidays were almost over when the refusal came.
Thanks

justwise:
Did you upload the refusal letter here before?

yes sir. I did

justwise:
You did not proof that your mum sends money to you..basically no evidence to support that claim.

Immigration wise your brother will be regarded as your sponsor as he is the one picking up the bills for your travel

Thank you for your reply but my mum does not send me money and i did not mention her at any point. I only filled her details and my dad's under parents' details. I presented my bank statements highlighting all monies in my account from brother every month and school fees paid by him. To be honest, maybe the ECO was on something because clearly he or she did not look at my application at all.

Good evening all, ardent follower of this thread. I apologize for the potentially long post. God bless everyone for their good works and thanks @justwise for creating this platform.
I am a student in Europe, full time. my school is now on break and I applied for a UK visa to spend time with brother and family last month. Unfortunately, my visa was refused AGAIN for the second time in 6months. for the latest, I was notified via email with a PDF attachment yesterday. I have not received my passport yet.

1. Applicant’s current original passport and copies of other passports with my travel history-visa stamps
2. Applicant’s proof of legal residence in study country (residence permit)
3. Applicant’s confirmation letter from school stating student status and holiday period
4. Applicant’s student ID and academic transcripts.
5. Invitation letter from brother.
6. Brother’s bio data page and proof of legal status in the UK(He's a British Citizen)
7. Brother’s 6 months bank statement and council tax bill
8. Printed online application form and checklist.
9. Applicant’s bank statement of 6 months.
10. Applicant’s housing agreements (for my flat)
11. Applicant’s study agreement.
12. Applicant’s chat history of about two years with my brother(217 pages).
13. Some pictures of me with my brother and his family
14. Cover letter explaining ANYTHING that may not be clear and my holiday plans to go shopping, sightseeing and so on. my brother stated I'd have 2000 pounds to spend on my holidays.

PLEASE NOTE- I did not mention my "mother" at any point except for the part of the form that stated parents details. My mum is retired and my brother has been responsible for me. This is a serious oversight from the ECO just like in the first refusal where he said i did not plan to stay with my brother which i clearly stated otherwise in my cover letter and application form. I stated i was a non-working student and all my expenses are FULLY taken care of by my brother with proof of my bank statement with money transfers from my brother which I HIGHLIGHTED. Why are they referring to him as a UK Sponsor? He is my eldest brother and also included both our birth certificates. i have no right to admin review and my brother plans to call and send emails to them for this oversight. Cos i am not sure my application was looked at at all.
Please I really need your opinion and insight sirs @justwise @ekpotek and all other gurus. THANKS AND GOD BLESS!
