. . ._{sorry for the inconvenience}

Hello Nairaland family, I need any help and suggestions regarding response I got after applying for eu settlement visa from Nigeria. Actually, I'm older than 24. I do my own biz and have good evidence for that. I got a letter and strangely, I submitted basically 95% of all that was required and even stated in that letter.
PLEASE SEE THE LETTER HERE:
You have failed to provide any evidence of your relationship with your claimed sister. I would expect to see both your birth certificates, other relevant birth documentation issued at the time of the event and other credible documentation evidencing your stated shared parentage.
REFUSAL OF EEA FAMILY PERMIT [I PROVIDED BIRTH CERTS OF MYSELF AND MY SISTER PLUS AN AFFIDAVIT OF MY PARENTS STATING ALL OUR FULL NAMES AND THEIR CHILDREN]

You are claiming to be dependent upon your sponsor. To evidence this you have provided various money transfers made from your sponsor to you dating from 27/03/2020. I am not satisfied however that you have demonstrated that this money pays for your essential needs in Nigeria.
I also find it noteworthy that your passport indicates extensive regional travel over a several-year period. I am not satisfied that this is consistent with someone who is reliant on financial support from your EEA national sponsor for your essential needs. You state that your sponsor entered the UK on 10/09/2019. [SHE DON'T HAVE RECEIPTS FOR EVERY TRANSFERS FROM THAT DATE TILL NOW, BUT THERE WERE TIMES SHE HAD SOMEONE GIVE ME MONEY.. ONLY CHAT CONVERSATIONS ARE AVAILABLE TO SHOW THIS]
However, you have not provided any evidence of dependency on your sponsor between that date and 27/03/2020. This office would expect to see regular money transfers from the date your sponsor entered the UK to present. As such, this does not demonstrate regular and sole dependency on your sponsor and for this reason I cannot be satisfied that you are dependent upon your sponsor as claimed.
You are of working age, however it does not appear that you are working in order to support yourself financially, and the documents you have submitted do not confirm why you are not working and supporting yourself in Nigeria. [I DIDN'T REALLY SUBMIT THIS BECAUSE IT WASN'T LISTED AS PART OF THE REQUIREMENTS ON THE FORM AND CHECKLIST] [/b]I note that on your application you state that you are financially supported by your sponsor, however the documents you submitted do not demonstrate you are receiving any regular support from your sponsor. The evidence you have provided has not demonstrated your dependency on your sponsor or that your sponsor pays for your essential needs in Nigeria such as rent and food. [b]It is also noted that you have not provided any evidence regarding your own financial situation such as bank statements or other documents indicating financial incomings and outgoings. [I SUBMITTED MY BANK STATEMENTS, 2 BANKS FOR THAT MATTER.. ONE WAS FOR 4 OR 6 MONTHS I THINK, THE OTHER WAS ONLY FOR 1 MONTH, AND IT HAS MY SALARY STATEMENT IN IT.] In the absence of this evidence I have been unable to sufficiently establish your dependency upon your EEA sponsor because I am unable to establish if you need the financial support from the EEA national to meet your essential needs. On the evidence submitted in support of your application and, on the balance of probability, I am not satisfied you are wholly or mainly financially dependent on your sponsor or, if you are, I am not satisfied that it is a dependency of necessity rather than choice.

I therefore refuse your EEA Family Permit application because I am not satisfied that you meet all of the requirements of regulation 8 of the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2016.
I therefore also refuse your EEA Family Permit application because I am not satisfied that you meet all of the requirements of regulation 12 (see ECGs EUN2.23) of the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2016.
