DFmum: Without going into too much personal details…are you able to say the reason your husband’s application was rejected? There are a lot of persons (with huge experiences) on this forum who might be able to offer suggestions. And save you the solicitor fees.. 4 Likes |

Good morning and compliments of the season. We're moving to the UK by January ending and I need advise on which best commuters town we can stay. Wifey's school is Westminster university and we've been advised to commute to save cost. Please, I'm looking at somewhere not so expensive (rent and general living cost), not too far from London and easy to commute. Thanks again. |

yolkman20: That's relative depending on how much you can afford. University of Westminster is central London, Madame Tussauds and all that. You can find cheapish (for London) housing in places like Dagenham, Stratford and the IG14 and RM postcodes (if you like), and she'll have a longish, but manageable, quasi-Lagos-like commute to Baker Street. |

Ok, I think I stated the reason earlier. He was refused visa 2015 and never got to know the reason for the refusal because nothing was on the mail and it was an agent that did that for him then, and didn't know he was banned as well. So now that we applied for dependant visa , they refused him and gave the kids, stating that he was banned in 2015 because he falsified document, meaning he can only apply after Oct 2025.

DFmum: Your husband is presently facing a 10 year ban.......... Never patronise agents...... They would cause more damage....... Start seeking alternative help....... |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by justwise(m): 11:00am On Dec 27, 2021 |
DFmum: Then there is very little the solicitor you hired can do. He was banned in 2015 and the agent who submitted forged documents did not disclose that to him then he applied and the ban was activated. He can not use agent as an excuse. Concentrate in getting your mum a visa to help with kids. 6 Likes |

Compliments of the season to us all! Pls I will like to know if I can put in for postgraduate studies in any of the Uk schools considering the fact that am currently undergoing a master degree programme in South Africa. I really want to tap into this Uk opportunity with my family but I don’t if my current study in South Africa will affect my application. |

DFmum: If I were you, I wouldn’t engage a solicitor ( except and unless the solicitor services is FREE). Even so, I wouldn’t really want to push my luck too much. See that bolded part? If by mail, you meant email, I’m afraid, your (his) agent was fraudulent. The UK does not send visa refusal letters by ‘mail’. They put it in an envelope containing the applicant’s passport. The applicant can’t miss it at all. They also explicitly state reason(s) for rejection. My sister, on this occasion, the agent lied to your husband. Untill and unless your husband is able to kolobi the agent and get out the hard facts, a solicitor is just about to chop your money for nothing. |

Yes, you can. You may be able to save up the full deposit before completing the whole process. [quote author=brine post=108594858] Congratulations ! I'm wondering if it makes sense to start looking for a house few months before you have your full deposit ? 1 Like |

DFmum:From my own understanding, adminstrative review means that they made a mistake in coming to their conclusion based on the docs you submitted. I doubt that is the case in this situation. 4 Likes |
