My wife in Cebu has appealed against our visa application (October15). I was wondering if any of you out there have ever had to appeal and how long it took yourselves? Or if any of you are waiting and how long you have been waiting for?

a rough guide

why was your wife refused ?
FOUR REASONS.
1 She sent my email that i wrote to her. but not her e-mails that she sent to me.
2 I am divorced and live in the marital home. They wanted letter from ex wife stating that she had no objections to my wife and I living there.
3 I am still paying the mortage and the house is in both my mine and my ex names.The mortage is linked to my bank accounts. These accounts are still in mine and my ex names and can not be changed (my ex does not used or want to use these accounts).They wanted a letter from my ex stating that she does not use these accounts.
4 From my previous marriage I have two children. They wanted a letter from my ex stating that she is and does not intend on asking me to support her or my children. At present I do not and my ex does not want me to.
My ex willingly wrote a letter to cover all of these points. I also got the bank to write a letter also saying that this was the case with the mortage. My wife supplied her e-mails.I wrote a letter to explain everything also.My wife also wrote a letter to explain everything also.
So we are hoping now that there sould be no more problems..............But (yes there is always a but!)the letter my ex gave me was typed and singed at the bottom by her. Will they except this or will they want a written letter?

hi dave63,
is that not stated in your divorce settlement?
just asking because in my ex's divorce papers everything was clarified and was stated i.e. child's maintenance, marital house etc etc. if this has been stated on your divorce papers i am pretty sure they will consider that document as it is official and legal.
i hope you could challenge the decision whilst it is still at the embassy because you can never tell how long the process takes when it is already submitted to the tribunal. mine took a long time, it took 6 - 12 mos and you are not sure what will be the outcome.
let us know how you get on. good luck

Hi dave it doesn't matter either typed or hand writen letter, the most important there is a letter and signed from your ex partner.
You said you can provide all the supporting docs they want for the appeal, im pretty sure the result will turn out positive. The decision might take a lot of time, but hey! hang on there and you'll get to the end.
Goodluck!
Not an expert, I only try to help.
goodluck and have faith to god

are you within 28 days of the decision if so fax all your evidence to the ECM manila the the visa fax number 006328582305 asking the ECM to make an urgent review of the documents and the decision also inform him that you will take every legal avenue open to you to be together and marry in england as is your rights. if you have supplied the documents this way, they should deal with before the 28 days are up and documents sent to england as its new and relevent evidence refuting the refusal. you may want to have the signiture witness and authenticated by a solicitor. My fiancee has been called for interview when i heard i sent further reps and evidence of our relationship which i will copy to my fiancee to take with her at interview.....i believe if you can satisfy them on the issues stated they will do the right thing and overturn the decision......if the appeal process has started it will be done in england and could take 12 months you would be better of re applying with all the evidence present, you know what missing and as they are duty bound to put all reason for a refusal in the decision you know everything else you sent met the critireia..if you can afford £600.do you have chat logs send these 2 i just sent a screen shot the rules state contact not nessecerily what is said by who and for how long just 2 way contact.
regards
j and a
good luck
keeps us informed
