She has permanent resident status in Spain (Schengen).

Recently she applied for a multi entry visa to UK. In the quest asking if she had ever been refused a UK visa she put 'NO.' They discovered that she had been refused once although she had been granted visas since then. For that one reason they said they had to refuse a visa this time as she had answered a question incorrectly. I believe she has lost her 450 euros application fee too.


Re the question put by Ross. I cannot understand the probelm fully. Maybe a fuller explanation might be a good idea.

In General:-

Criminal cases (in UK) are dealt with in Criminal courts (magistrates courts, crown Courts). Cases dealt with in Civil courts (Small Claims Courts, County Courts etc)are not criminal cases. I would think that this general rule would probably apply in Phil too.

However, my advice is to be honest in all answers, and if in doubt, attach a written explanation.
