Hi, He applied from the nigeria, the UK visa was basically refused cos the visa officer said he didn't have enough ties in Nigeria. I relocated to Nigeria and was living with him for 2years, we only wanted to visit my mum for Xmas but they said no. Goodluck with your application, am in Dublin now. H...
hi, yes the visa officer mentioned that in his refusal letter and we appealed but the refusal was upheld, its a clear breach of the directive. i have reported to solvit and they have taken the matter up. so hopefully, they will be able to deal with the situation and the embassy will reverse their de...
Hi, My husbands visa was refused on the same ground even tho its a clear breach of the directives. We have appealed and still waiting for a decision, its been four weeks now. Fingers crossed you won't have the same problem but its a good thing to be honest and mention the refusal. The embassy staffs...
Hi Ameen'
I replied your earlier, my husband and I are still waiting to hear bk about our appeal. Did they email or call you when or wife's appeal was successful
Hi,
My husband and I are still waiting to hear back from the embassy about our appeal. Did they contact you by phone or email and did ur wife send her passport with the appeal letter. It's been two weeks now since we appealed
I intend to go to Ireland next month. The directive is clear I don't have to be in Ireland before he applies. I just have to be there before him to pick him up. So the embassy staffs need to respect the law
Hi, My husbands visa was also refused last week on the same grounds. Its a clear breach of your treaty right and I think you should appeal. We have appealled my husbands refusal. I pasted a copy of the appeal letter my husband sent to the embassy on the forum. As you will be in or initial 3 months o...
Hi all, my husband recently applied for a join eea spouse visa from Nigeria, the application was submitted on the 29th of Sep 2014 and a refusal letter was sent out on the 1st of Oct 2014, its definitely dodgy because i have never heard of a visa application decision being made in 2 days, the visa o...
Hi happy, He applied for a short stay (c) join eea spouse visa. We will appeal the decision because I believe the visa officer is totally ignorant and doesn't understand the directives. I refused to give them the satisfaction when I know they have incompetent untrained staff members. I am a qualifie...
hi happy, am so upset right, so the stupid ignorant visa officers in Nigeria refused my husbands visa on the fact that he didn't include enough proof that he is joining me. in the visa application i provided an airline ticket to show that i will be travelling to Dublin from London before him. we inc...
Hey happy,
We finally got it sorted, it took calling the embassy for the ignorant vfs staffs to accept the join eea application. Fingers crossed the embassy won't take forever to get bk to us. Will update you when he gets it. When r u n ur daughter travelling to Ireland.
Hi happy, I am so happy for you, my husband went to submit his application and stupid vfs staffs are telling him he supposed to select visiting as the purpose for travel. I told him to insist he's join eea spouse. The requirement for visiting is different. I had to call vfs office from London. Spoke...
I have no personal experience yet but have read bout ppl who have sent an email to the embassy to find out y its taking so long. Its worth a try. If u don't mind me asking what country did u apply for d visa
Hi heregreg
Could u pls post the letter you sent with your application, my husband is about to apply for his short stay visa. It would help to include the letter also.
For the people that have successfully moved could you please advise on how easy it is to get a job in Dublin. Accommodation is not an issue because we will be staying with family. But am really worried about getting a job because that's the only way to show that am exercising my rights.
Hi happygolucky'
Thanks a bunch. This is really helpful. Its such a relief to hear this cos I know so many countries seriously disregards certain rules when dealing with Nigerians. Will have him do the application next month and would update you on the status.
