    Why was the visa rejected? Did the Embassy give you a reason?

    being in the red on your current account seems to affect the decision more than the savings.

    overdrawn not a good idea, how can you suupport her and pay for flight, wedding, etc when your overdrawn?.. you should have put some of your savings in your current account..


    an appeal process could take upto 6 months or even longer, always worth a try asking the ECO at the embassy to reconsider your visa app.

    You don't need a solicitor to appeal. You just correct the mistakes you made in the first one. It's free!

    Did you not have any "show money" borrowed to make it look like you had plenty of savings?

    swayze noone is blaming you or attacking your motives, just telling you how it is. i havent seen my wife since we were married last december as getting savings put away was the only way to be assured of a favourable outcome on our application. you will find the advice given by here by most members is better than you may get on the official websites. all the best on your appeal

    salamat Joe!
    some people have managed to get a visa with no savings - but its better to reduce any risks of refusal as much as possible, by not sending overdrawn bank statements and having at least £2,000+ in the bank should get you thru the finance part. also you need to show you have a genuine relationship and for somewhere for her to live without overcrowding

    Quote Originally Posted by swayze View Post

    so you appealled in the uk ?
    no one is blaming you or anyone

    how many bankstatements were overdrawn ?

    you may well win an appeal but if the ECO doesn't overturn it, you could be waiting a long time , could be as long as 6 months..

    might be quicker to re-apply and cheaper if your paying a solicitor !

    that last bit sounds like a really good bit of advice from Joe. Don't pay solicitor. Jig your savings around, research and submit new application. Save you time and money

    Hi Swayze sounds to me if you have plenty of money in the bank and now your savings and incomings would easily support your wife so she is not a burden on the State when she moves over to the UK. Cancel the appeal and submit a new application it will cost but possibly be far quicker im thinking than waiting for an appeal.

    Basically in the application your trying to say look we are in love, we are geniune and have met in person, I can look after her in suitable accomdation and support her with ease.
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops

    As others have already said, overdrawn bank statements are a big no no. You need to show that, on paper, over a six month period you are solvent, ie more going in than coming out on most of the monthly bank statements. You don't mention whether you submitted evidence of you savings account as well, but if not, this is also something that would help a lot.

    You may think that you are solvent, and given what you have said about your savings, I would probably agree, but the ECO would make his/her decision based on the evidence you sumbit and if the evidence he/she is given gives the impression that you are living beyond your means because you are regularly overdrawn, then he/she will normally decide that you probably won't be able to support your fiancee in the UK without recourse to public funds.

    Iain.

    Does you account clearly show monthly income.. about £3000 monthly income should do kit with no overdraft carried over into the following month(s).

    You say you have plenty of income as an electrician.. are you self employed??

    .
    i don't know about cancelling it, you might as well sort your bank statements out and see if your refusal is overturned b4 it goes to AIT, if its not overturned nothing to stop you getting ready to apply for a fresh fiancee visa with stronger evidence and good bank statements, then if you've not heard anything from your appeal and your ready for a fresh app, apply for a fiancee visa again then cancel your appeal.

    Good point dont you have a small amount of time to appeal to the ECO your self? Before it goes to AIT.

    So if your still in that timeframe it maybe a fairly quick process from what i have seen it seems its less hassle for the eco to approve rather than deny as less paperwork and effort in the long run
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops
