[quote author=Omot123 post=77576613]I got a refusal for my spouse visa which I put in on august 2018 ECO picked july payslip as missing and no letter attached to support this. But the payslip was sent latter after the first documents were sent in but hubby didn't attach any letter to it. We can't afford to re-apply now, and i'm thinking of going through the appeal process I hear appeal takes like a year or thereabout
My good people on this forum kindly assist on how to go about this appeal process. Can hubby still send the payslips to support the appeal? It took me 8 months to get this decision now I will have to wait for a year now
Kindly render your advise for me to get it right this time thanks to you all for always being there.

Was the payslip sent via recorded mail and before the email stating your application has been forwarded for consideration. If so and you have proof of this you could file a complaint as long as you can prove you sent the payslip before the email stating your documents are being considered because before then you are still free to send in documents. If you want to follow this route and give it a try alongside your appeal send an email or post to the address in the attached picture but maybe don’t mention you didn’t attach a letter that way they might reopen your application.

Thank you very much @ Kenttoday even up to this moment I still can’t believe I got it after all the blood sweat and tears

Have you received any other penalty in relation to a criminal offence; for example a caution, reprimand, warning, or similar penalties in the UK or any other country?


Fear catch me as I see Police letter .. wetin happen ooo. So I did 47 mph on a 40mph na so one of these mobile cameras catch me  . Na so I chill small say no be big issue like that. I had the option of attending a speed awareness course (which I did) exempting me from fine or court.

As far as I have research, this no suppose even fall under any criminal offence. Gurus I beg, wetin you guys think and anyone with such experience please advise 

@ Trumps wall you need not worry about this because it’s not something That goes on your criminal record unlike some other driving offences and as you have not been convicted in a court of law and it is not a offence that attracts a prison sentence you need not worry

Hello everyone I thought I would just share this incase someone is in the same boat as me. I travelled to the Uk a few times and lost my passport and have been denied visas but I didn’t know the exact dates. Just found out you can ask the home office for your immigration record that way you can answer the questions accurately. If you also need to get your immigration record the link is.

Personally, I doubt if that would be an issue since I believe you did not contravene any rules or laws (as per the information above). However, if you are asked to provide details of your past refusals or applications in any of the forms be as honest as possible if it falls within the timeframe referred to in any of the questions.

As we all know, honesty is the best policy.

Thank you to everyone for all the help and taking time out to help.

Hi @pleasehelpme2,

I think you found the relevant information for your category, kindly follow the instruction to a 't' (i.e. 12 or 6 months pay-slip & bank statement prior to her sick leave depending on how long your wife has worked for the employer amongst other things) and you should be fine.

I am glad we could help.

Thank you for all the help I will continue to do more research to make sure my application is full proof. I do have one more question I was denied a few Uk visas as a child but got them either on second attempt or on appeal. However after I finished my degree in the Uk I applied to extend it to allow me to do a masters but the rules changed and there was a 5 year limit imposed on studying in the Uk. As a result my masters would have put me over the 5 years so I left the Uk before my visa expired and went to study my masters in Australia the refusal letter says I had got all the points I needed but was only refused because of the 5 year limit, would this affect this application in anyway

Loritess:


If that’s the case, I think you have to provide 12 months pay slip and explain in your covering letter(s) what happened.
Others can help with an answer as well. Do a good research as well. Wish you the best.

Hello everyone hope your day is going well.

I have just seen this in the guidance notes please may the house tell me if I am right but does this mean that any time you take as sick leave does not count towards the six months worth of payslips or one year if you are following that route ?

oxygyne:


What financial requirement category are you planning on using?
This would help to provide more detail on the best way forward.

Hi Oxygne thank you for your response.

We where planing on using category A.

My wife’s annual salary is 30 k but because she was sick it’s dropped one of her pay checks to below 1550 but it says on the payslip that it was statutory sick pay. As a result we are worried that they will count the lower pay check as the one that the home Office will use to calculate the financial requirement is this correct. In the guidance notes for financial requirements I saw something about a period of sick leave not counting towards the income requirement because I don’t understand the implications of this.

Hello elders and everyone on the forum. My name is adi

Thank you for this very informative and supportive thread. I am new to the thread but I have read from page 1.
Please may you help me, my question is my wife wants to sponsor me for spouse visa but she has been on statutory sick pay as a result she Earned less then the threshold amount last month. Does that mean we do not qualify anymore or is they a way around this ?

Please if anyone knows the answer to my question or has experienced this please help me
