Hi everyone,
I just wanted to share another experience related to visa application.
My sister has applied a Family Visit Visa June this year but after 2 weeks the decision came saying that her application is refused because the ECO is not convince that she will return to the Philippines at the end of her visit. I and my sister were saddened with this decision but since she is allowed to appeal, I decided to complete the papers and lodged the appeal for her here in UK. In other word, I acted as her representative.
It was the fourth week of July then when I received the letter from the UK Tribunal informing me that the "papers" were forwarded back to Manila for the ECO to review the additional documents I submitted, including the very long letter I prepared explaining things.
And finally, my sister emailed me today saying that that the decision was overturned so there's no need to appeal. She was advised to send her passport to the British embassy in Manila to stamp her visa, which she did.
I'm quite happy now and looking forward on seeing my sister soon.
