Thats very sad news drh it was advertised from at least last july that for applications after 29 November this would be the case and is further compounded in your case by your fiance not arriving at the begining of the six month visa,unless thats changed and I didnt notice.
Appeal away but your Missus is now an overstayer and you may be forced to begin again with a spouse visa for her and her son from the Phils having her pass the test there, coaching is cheap especial in Cebu whichhas a lot of language centers.
Sorry not to be able to say what you must wish to hear but its the way the system is now.
