Withdrawal

[squibkhan]

Hi , I applied for a spouse visa which was refused in February and I appealed. Last week they sent me a letter stating "I am writing to inform you that I have reviewed the decision made on 04 February 2017 to refuse this application.The decision is now withdrawn and the case will be reconsidered by the decision making centre" "The reason for this is evidence has now been provided to show that your sponsors relationship is genuine and subsisting.We will advice the decision making centre where you original application was decided" Then a couple days later a letter stating Notice of home office decision withdrawal. Does that mean it's been overturned and they will issue a visa or that they are going to look at the paper work again. I'm just confused.

It means that they might change their mind about the refusal. Good luck! Hopefully the visa will be granted this time

They will go through your paperwork again and re-assess almost like a new application, I hope you get good news!

Hi,

I got the same letter as you on the first week in September but at until now no one contact me. Do you have any update from your case? Where did you apply? I did from the HO in Poland and the first time they answered me in 2 weeks.

If anyone else are in the same boat please share their experience.

Many thanks

I go the same and 4 weeks later the decision was overturned and visa ready to be issued. I have no submitted my passport and waiting for it to be returned. Monday will make it 8 workings days since passport with them. The appeal decision came out faster than my new application. Hopefully should get passport this week.

My application start at the end of February. It's gonna be 7 weeks from the last mail where they said that my case will reconsidered and at the moment no answer. Time is flying and there is no way to contact them for a truly information about your case. I'm running out of patience

Hi squibkhan,
