yes i remember now, we've had a few settlements visas refused recently for children in the last few months, but i don't recall any others since I've been on here..
maybe the embassy are beingnow..
my stepson didn't have a problem getting a visa and he was nearly 18, i didnt have much money in the bank and i think i had been made redundant becuase work went bust to.
but good luck, i'm sure you will win any appeal![]()
