Fiance visa refused

[robbie bobby]

They had 7 months bank statements 91 page missing from one month, my mistake), all my payslips, letter from employer and p60 clearing 38,000 at yr end.....my answer too them is check with bloody inland revenue, account showed 2000 in savings after 3 trips too cebu over three months,so can i hold him too account over this salry too card issue he clearly got mistaken with as a wage payment........or could appeal fail as i omitted 1 bit of a statement which i will now be enclosing...with fresh copies of them all...

That's funny!When I asked the question if I fail to omit a document or make a mistake would that be an automatic refusal."oh no" they said to me " we would usually contact you before refusal if we see there is just the 1 item missing and usually we would give you the chance to get it to us before we could move forward with the application"

Seems like its all lies then!

I agree me and my fiance were like why not just call us or e mail for sake of fifty seconds, we could of addressed is query and provided the paper we leftout, and more importantly tell him where he was going wrong, his attitude with the comment at the end sounds like typical civil servant snobbery (i know i used too be one)..not the snobby type though lol,we were shocked and so was our legal advise guy.....lets hope appeal gets passed or we are waiting 4-6 months maybe max, then if that doesnt work reapply again........7-9 month set back, but lets ope for the best...i think they do what suits then but i really think the appeal just addresses the one area you get refused so if you can cover that should go well?

there was some discretion given to the ECO's awhile back, because it was not possible to meet the requirements for certain people in certain circumstances.

if it was one important document, they could have contacted you, cant find the relevant link now, I'm at work.

.......if it was one important document, they could have contacted you, cant find the relevant link now, I'm at work.

Here's what the immigration rules state:-

The onus is on the applicant to demonstrate that the financial requirement is met in their case. Decision-makers will not generally be expected to make further enquiries or request further information in an effort to establish whether the financial requirement is met.

And here's the statement about ECO discretion that joebloggs mentions:-

There is discretion for decision-makers to defer an application pending submission of missing evidence or the correct version of it, within reasonable deadline set for this. Decision-makers will not have to defer where they do not think that correcting the error or omission will lead to a grant

Here are those cases:-

Including:-
A sequence of documents and some of the documents in the sequence have been omitted (e.g. if one bank statement from a series is missing);
A document in the wrong format
or
A document that is a copy and not an original document
or
Has not submitted a specified document

There are members here who have been requested to submit missing documents before their visa was approved.

Best option is give me the 800 squid and I'll prepare the appeal for you.
They've simply made a mistake. In future visa applications spell it out to them. ..it'll save all this stress.
