Wife visa granted...2 kids refused! Help please!

[MarkR]

Oh those last few posts have just depressed me even more...thanks! Meanwhile I'm spending half the night on the phone to my wife trying to console her and persuade her not to give up. Not easy when she is alone with the kids.

Afraid I can't agree with tanga...I know ALL the info I submitted and the fact is plane..the ECO didn't bother to read most of it.

.

giving up shouldn't be an option , just hold on, wait and see what tomorrow brings.
many on here have struggled but got there in the end as you will eventually.

thou i haven't had a visa refused, I had to wait months for the result of my wives visa app and in the end I complained to every manager I could at the Embassy, the next day I got a forwarded email from one manager to another asking to help me out, the next day my wife got a call to pick her passport up I know its not the same but others on here have had a refusal over turned by the ECM asking them for a reconsideration, others have gone to appeal and won,

I wish you the best of luck Mark

That being the case, regard this as a bit of bad luck for yourselves and remain optimistic of a reversal.

To Mark
Hello
Im currently getting throw the same situation now. My daughter's settlment visa was refused due to the sole responsibility. The differences are that I have one child and live in Russia. it was rejected on the November 2011. Since i arranged a lawyer and also were searching the information non-stop. I was reading your refusal letter and think you need to collect as much evidences as possible. it can be letters from a school or a kindergarden confirmin that your wife was sole carer, for example the letter which says that only her brought them to a doctor and was responsible to make the major decisions at health and education. it might help. also try to get some letters from neighbours if its possible. The best option is to submit the court document, you still can appeal and send it later when its done.
I wish your situation will resolved soon

Sadly, there will be some real pricks working there...same as anywhere.

Hopefully a person more worthy of their job will be handed your papers. Good luck.
