Since you are resubmitting your passports, after an initial spousal visa refusal and an advised withdrawal of appeal. Once you submit your passports, you might wait up to 2 months to get your documents back.....

If you waited to see the appeal process through, you would have had to wait up to 2 years, assuming your appeal is granted.....

Comparing both situations, you are in a much better position timewise, so why has time become an issue? Be patient and justwise, and your justwise would be granted soonest.....

Some people had to pay about £3000 for another application, after initially been rejected, and did not want to take the appeal gamble and had to splash out again....
please what do you mean that i might wait up to 2 months, speaking from experience or cases seen here?

I think a DNA test is needed in this case.
speaking from experience.
You don't need to do DNA test, they will request for it if it is needed.
Question B. was the child born after the sponsor got his British Citizenship, if yes, the child can apply for British passport straightaway but if the sponsor got his British citizenship after the child was born, the child need for settlement visa.

Congratulations..... The beauty of taking the appeal gamble route, you might just be lucky to have a reconsideration....

Do as the email stated, pay your IHS fee. You submit your passport and await collection date.

TB test not required & you pay no more fees.....

Why do you want to submit by proxy? I am sure you can submit by proxy, just write a cover letter to that effect and hand over all receipts and documents to your proxy......
I sent someone today to the application centre to find out if someone could help me submit my documents, they said I can only submit it myself, nobody can do that on my behalf. Not sure how long it will take to get my documents back, anyone with idea?

Ok I didnt know that!

But let me ask, what do you need this new TB test for? Is it to be submitted with the passport?
Because you definitely do not need it at immigration check when you land in the UK.
couple of people that just arrived uk, said they did not ask them TB cert.

First of all, I am happy for you on the decision to overturn your refusal, that's awesome.

On your questions, here is my take:
1. When you made the IHS payment, weren't you directed to an appointment page? If not, I will advise you take along the previous application receipt and refusal documents received from Home Office along with copies of your IHS payment confirmation and the overturn emails from Home Office. Just carry all, you will know what you need when you get there. But more importantly, take your passports.

2. Will advise you submit yourself.

3. Do not think you need to do another TB test, if it's required they would have asked for it in the email. The original TBS test certificates have been assessed during your application.

4. Do not think you have to pay for anything again. Maybe unless you want your passport couriered to you.

I am sure someone with a similar experience would respond shortly, again we are happy for you.

Thanks oxygyne
I will do that.

If i may ask why were you guys refused?
Question 2- I don’t think it is possible for your passports to be submitted on your behalf because your biometrics would be taken again.
Question 3- If the TB test duration has not expired you can still use it.
Let my ogas at the top answer further. Lol
Thanks to everyone for quick response.
Reasons for refusal
1- No date on the pictures we submitted.
2- The WhatsApp chat we submitted was a month old before my relationship started( I submitted one year call log before my relationship started)
3- That the birth certificate of my daughter was collected after 5 years from her birth. Which on the gov uk website states that any child born in UK should get their birth certificate within 48 hours which only apply to child born uk not overseas.
4- That the pictures we submitted look the same which was not true.

Hi everyone

Please I need some information if anyone can help.
I and my son was refuse settlement visa in Feb 2018, for stupid reasons. We appealed in March 2018 , I received an email 3 weeks ago from Home Office Sheffield saying that they have decided to overturn the initial refuse, they want to grant my visa but I need to withdrawal my appeal. The tribunal contacted me and requested for letter of consent for the withdrawal, which I gave. Last week I received another email from Home Office stating that the decision to refuse your visa application has been overturned and our office is now ready to issue you a UK visa, that we need pay Immgration Health Surcharge with a link , after making the payment we should take our passport along with a copy of the email sent to me by Home Office to the visa application centre where we initially made our application.
Question 1- Are we just going to walk in ?
Question 2- Is it possible for someone to Submit our passport on our behalf?
Question 3- Do we need to do another TBS test when travelling by God's grace, since the previous one is more than 6 months?
Question 4- Are we going to pay any fee for this process again at application centre?
I will really appreciate your suggestion or response. Thanks and God bless.
