what to do next

[keithAngel]

this is what she said i quote
in summary,as evedence that you intend to get married you have submitted a letter from "outside catering",however i am satisfiedto a high degree of probability that it is not a genuine docment.you claim to have been in a relationship with mr phillip------since august 2007,yet when you made an application for a visitor visain december 2007,you made no mention of having a partner in the uk.during your interview,you were unable to provideany credible explanation for these discrepancies with your application.
in light of the above,i am not satisfied that you are seeking leave for marriage and /or intend to live permanently with your spouse after the marriage or civil partnership.
therefore i refuse your application.


what do the experts think do we have a chance in appeal. or would you advise us to marry there in oct and apply again for spouse, if you think we have chance in appeal frances and i could do with some help espeically with a letter.
thanks again everyone for your help

The Catering question has already been covered if it were I I would say that my relationship by correspondence had led to a desire to meet and that her aunts invitation was an ideal opportunity

When that was denied you were motivated to visit her in the Phil's and it was after this meeting that the desire for marriage and proposal arose hence her application for fiance visa and naturally like everyone else the length of your relationship is measured from first contact.

Sound advice I think!
