Applying for Other Visa Categories After T1E and AR refusal

Post by sassybee » Tue Sep 19, 2017 4:45 pm

Hi all,

Just a couple of questions.

If an applicant have been refused T1E because he/she failed the genuine entrepreneur test and have also been refused after AR.

1) Can they reapply for a different visa category e.g Tier 4, Tier 2 or even dependent of Tier 2 migrant.

2) Does the applicant have to leave the UK before reapplying; if yes how soon can the applicant re-apply to come back to the UK.

3) What are the implications of this refusal to dependents currently working. i.e do they have to stop work.

Thanks All :) :)

You visa is not refused. What make you think that you will be refused.
After refusal you have open option to reapply but I don't think you can switch to student visa.
How long you are living in the uk?
Nearly 9 years?

Thanks Momi,

I am still waiting, however I read the post below and tried asking the question on that thread but was asked to create mt own topic. Just preparing for the worse case scenario.

Thanks for your response

@sassybee

I think everyone awaiting decision for a long time have the same concern.

Worst case scenerio.


I am on the same boat!

When did you apply?

1) Can they reapply for a different visa category e.g Tier 4, Tier 2 or even dependent of Tier 2 migrant.
You are not allowed to switch to Tier 4 in the UK.
For Tier 2 or PBS dependant you can apply within 14 days of AR refusal.
2) Does the applicant have to leave the UK before reapplying; if yes how soon can the applicant re-apply to come back to the UK.
If you want to maintain your lawful stay, apply within 14 days of AR refusal OUTSIDE the UK
3) What are the implications of this refusal to dependents currently working. i.e do they have to stop work.
Yes, they will lose the right to work

No. PBS dependants cannot become main applicants unless they apply from outside the UK
