My mother was granted a tier 1 visa back in 2010 after which they didn't visit as often but ended up setting up a limited company and purchasing two subway franchises. After setting up franchises they applied for extension but was refused and were granted an in country appeal which they did not take as they wanted to come to Pakistan.
My mother and I applied almost a year and half alter as an entrepreneur team and our visa was outrightly rejected as the law applied was not correct. We appealed and were sent a call in letter which said they would issue the visa subject to further checks. We submitted our passport and were called in for an interview where we did not request an interpreter but were made to use one anyway. The interpreter would only interpret part of what we said and that annoyed me and when i spoke out of turn i felt like i wasn't being translated and minutes were not taken down. Needless to ponder a day after the interview i received an email saying the visa app has been processed and returned to VFS.
My problem with the interview was that they asked questions and did not get into the core of the franchising business which made what we answered incoherent. We also mentioned a location for which were currently were dealing with and had suddenly come up but was not in our business plan. I tried clarifying this but to no avail as the interpreter would start translating mid way my answer and that distracted me and i had to stop talking.
My lawyer placed both things on notice first that a call in letter was issued and thus the interview at this stage is unprecedented and second that the interpreter did not do his job properly.
I am fairly positive that the visa has again been rejected, i have still to collect it- but I am confused about the call in letter and then interview bit. DID UKBA not follow their own procedure? Is there anything I can argue? Will I be granted another review considering the very confusing situation?
I await your responses.
thanks for info, with regard to your last refusal you could provide them with CT600 and corporation tax letter to meet the requirements. however about job creation you could claim the part time worker hours even if they worked less than 12 months (as EC issued in 2010) .ar000 wrote:@siavashes
So They did not award the points for the investment because our consultant did not attach all the requisite documents- That form CT41G was not submitted to establish that the company met the requirements and then creation of jobs she was not awarded points as some employees were part tine and they said that the employment did not cover a 12 month period and does no cover enough hours of employment.
Yeah I suppose will find out tomorrow. I am very sure that its a rejection. The transcript of the interview has been requested. Just really annoyed with the procedure of the way it was conducted. We weren't allowed to explain anything.

Siavash has correct questions to clarify you. My comments below are blunt so please dont mind them. We are sucessful T1 ent business people since 2011......todate
1. If you had T1 in 2010 And did not take up in country appeal for Ext..means you ACCEPTED the decision of Refusal of Extension by UKBA/UKVI.
However, what transpired of your franchise business to date, Did you sell off ?? Or are you still in business ??
2. Your 2nd application of T1 was going to be Surely refused because you had One Earlier T1 Ext application Refusal of 2010 entry clearence Not appealed meaning Accepted by you.......... What were your basis of this application.? Important to understand....
3. There could be several avenues you / your mum could take. Depends entirely on your mum and you...
Best.
