Hello,
I hope someone can give me advice on our situation.
I am a british citizen my husband is turkish. We married in Istanbul. I live in London, he is still in Istanbul. In July we had a baby girl, she is now british citizen too. My husband just applied for family visitor visa to come to London for 10 days only and was refused. I knew I didn't earn enough for him to get Spouse visa, but to be refused even visitor visa was a big surprise. He has not seen his daughter yet! He has a job in Istanbul earning $3000 per month, but his company has a strange way of paying only small part of salary into his bank account and the rest he receives as cash. The visa officer did not believe his salary is $3000, even after seeing a letter from company boss stating this salary and on this basis refused his visa.
Has anyone been in similar situation? What are our options now? Is me and baby moving to Turkey the only option for us to be together?
Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I did look through other threads but didn't find the answers to my questions...
