I was refused a UK short-term study visa. Can I reapply immediately? - Closeup Photo of Black Smartphone Near Black and Grey Pencil on Black Spiral Notebook

I applied for a short term study visa. I got admission to an Oxford summer course. In my visa application, I gave all the supportive documents. But my visa has been refused by stating that the bank statement of my father and his personal income does not match plus I didn't give my fathers employment status!

Kindly tell me that should I apply immediately again by stating all the unclear origins of the application clearly?



Best Answer

Can I reapply immediately?

Yes, though whether wise to do so may in part depend on the exact wording of your refusal letter. However given I got admission to an Oxford summer course (ie time is of the essence) and what you state of the refusal reasons (ie basically the issues were documentary) I think you have little choice but to do so.

And yes, at the very least any further application should address the stated issues:

I] explain any apparent discrepancies between bank statements and personal income for your father, and
2] state your father's employment status.

You may also wish to consult a reputable agent (such as an immigration specialist who is a member of the UK Law Society) who should at least be able to ensure that the paperwork for any further application is in order prior to submission.

Please also note that for any more specific question about UK study visas Expatriates may be a better place to ask than here.
