Hi People,

After my wife&#39;s Settlement Visa refusal we decided to apply for vVsitors Visa 6 months is better then nothing.Of course another interview 16th May 06 I will fly out to Cebu 10th May Qatar and stay over until 25th May. The appeal has been applied for 13th February AIT have given Embassy until 29th June to have bundle of papers back to them, so much for 60 days as stated on website. The reason given for the original refusal was that the ECO did not believe our marriage was sub-sisting.Interesting really as an Appeal Judge ruled that all legal marriages are classed as sub-sisting.I remember somebody once posting on here about an ECO saying to the Filipina at interview "I suppose you will commt suicide if I refure your visa" Anyone know the name of the officer concerned sounds very much like the same one who interviewed Amet and said I am in no mood for interviews today, and do not look at me I do not like your face. SO KIND

Good Luck to you all

this is a strange situation you are in - if I were faced with this difficulty I would email the Embassy in Manila -and ask for their advice - (rather than start a fight straight away) explain how you can&#39;t accept their decision because of the genuine nature of your marriage etc etc

Say you will be attanding the May interview - flying out specially from the UK for that purpose - (quote your flight details) and say that you would be available at any other time during that period in order to attand any
interview so that you can provide any clarification that would meet their requirements...

Take an "I&#39;m here to help approach" with them - polite but not begging -

By doing this you will either succeed by this approach and get the visa or you will get more information on whatever caused them to refuse the first application which will allow you to prepare for the interview

Best of Luck and keep posting your progress

Well put find out the reason the Embassy gave in declining the visa. Then produce evidence to counter there points. They have to give legal reasons why they decline.

Please keep us all posted on what happens and let us know if we can help in any way.
