Visitors Visa Refused based on incorrect information [duplicate] - Here To Help Lettering Text on Black Background

I applied for a visitors visa last year in December. I got a response yesterday indicating that my application had been refused. On reading the reasons why it was refused, I was stunned. 1. The decision maker said that I had stated I earn GHC 800/year. The is not true. I had specifically mentioned in my application that I earn GHC 800/month. I there believe that due to not reading the application properly, my visa was refused.

*The decision

I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of paragraph(s) V4.2 of Appendix V: Immigration Rules for visitors because: In order to be able to make a decision on whether or not to grant you entry clearance in this category I have taken into account your stated circumstances in Ghana, the reasons for your visit and your proposed travel arrangements. You stated in your Visa Application Form that you are coming for 13 days to visit family. I understand that family visits are important and I have therefore carefully considered all of the elements of your application, weighing the importance of your proposed visit against the requirements of the Immigration Rules. I note that you have previously been refused entry clearance for the UK. However each application is considered on its own merits. In your application you state that you are employed as Office Administrator earning a yearly income of 800 GHS (£128.951 at exchange rate £1 = 6.20391). However from the documents submitted in your application I am not satisfied as to your declared employment in terms of regularity and income. The transaction history in the copy of your bank statement you have provided does not reflect the income you have quoted, and indicates large sums of deposits made to your account for which you have provided no explanation. Furthermore, you state that you have no dependants, and the documents you have provided do not show your family or social circumstances in Ghana. You have not shown any property or assets in Ghana. You also state that you have not travelled outside your country of residence in the last 10 years, and you have had no history of travel to countries directly comparable to the United Kingdom or shown travel and compliance with immigration procedures similar to those of the United Kingdom. I am therefore not satisfied that your circumstances in Ghana, coupled with your reasons for wishing to travel to the UK, are such that you have shown that your intentions are as stated or that you intend to leave the UK at the end of your proposed visit. This means that, on the evidence before me, and the balance of probabilities, I am not satisfied that you have accurately presented your circumstances or intentions in wishing to enter the UK. I am not satisfied that you intend to leave the UK at the end of your visit, that you will not live in the UK through frequent or successive visits, that you are genuinely seeking entry for a purpose that is permitted by the visitor routes. This means that your application for a visit visa has been refused under paragraph V4.2 (a) (c) of the Immigration Rules*

The email also mentioned that:

In relation to this decision, there is no right of appeal or right to administrative review.

However, it is obvious that my application was not properly looked at and hence the wrong decison was given. How can I appeal?



Best Answer

That could be a typo by the ECO, ie per year instead of per month. Even if it’s not, I can tell you with a good degree of confidence that your correct salary of 800 GHS (£128.951) per month is not going to change the ECO’s decision.

Finally the other point about unexplained deposits is in itself enough evidence for a visa refusal.

In summary I don’t think it’s worth chasing an appeal/review.

What happens if you make a mistake on your visa application?

Mistakes on application form can be disastrous. If the mistake is interpreted by officials as an attempt to mislead or deceive, the application must be refused. If the application is for an entry clearance, it will also lead to a 10 year ban on re-entry.

Why would you be denied a visitor visa?

An applicant's current and/or past actions, such as drug or criminal activities, as examples, may make the applicant ineligible for a visa. If denied a visa, in most cases the applicant is notified of the section of law which applies.

Can tourist visa be rejected?

Visa rejection may happen when you fail to prove your eligibility to visit a particular country. It mostly takes place as the applicants fails to provide important information, or sometimes because of certain document missing.

Can you appeal a tourist visa denial?

You do not have a right to appeal a denial of a non-immigrant visa by a U.S. consulate in your home country. However, you can ask the consulate about the basis for the denial. This likely will give you the information that you need to file a new application that will be approved.

Answer 2

you have no right to appeal, that doesn't mean you can't contact the embassy and ask them very politely to review your refusal as you believe it was made in error (and mention the reason you think so).

Whether the embassy will consider that letter or not is where you have no rights, they may just throw it in the bin and you'd have no legal recourse, or they may investigate and refuse you anyway, or they investigate and send you a visa with an apology for the trouble, anything could happen.

But whatever you do, be polite and courteous.
