Appeal hearing date set.

This really does sound awful for you both!
If it isnt stressful and difficult enough, they dont even seem to be able to see the evidence under their nose! Evidence you both probably spent hours weeks and even months collecting and organising!

This is why we are very afraid of the visa being refused...regardless if everything at our end is in order!

Yeah ok you can appeal and go to court etc but this all takes precious time and money after all the time and money it has already cost!

Totally agree with you. Yes the refusal has the financial impact in as much as I've had to travel to manila twice since being married to see my wife and various other things, but the time factor far outweighs this. Our first anniversary is fast approaching aswell as my 50th birthday and the thought of not being together for these 2 events is hard to take.
Still fingers crossed we'll get there in the end.
