I applied for the Tier 4 Visa and have been refused it based on the below reason:
What's ridiculous is the fact that I had submitted my sister's relation proof, consent letter and passport copy to reveal that she has allowed me access to her funds while I am in the UK. Her two accounts have more than the sufficient amount to cover my stay in the UK.I have refused your application for entry clearance under Tier 4 (General) of the
Points-Based System for the following reasons:
You have claimed 10 points for funds under Appendix C of the Immigration Rules. However,
the documents you have provided do not demonstrate that you are in possession of the
required level of funds. Your CAS states that your course fees are £15500.00 of which you
have paid £15500.00 + a maintenance amount of £9,135.00 for living outside London. This
leaves an outstanding balance of £9,135.00. You are required to demonstrate that these funds
are available to you for a minimum of 28 days in your account or your parent’s/legal guardian’s
account.
You have submitted a bank statement in your mother’s name from HSBC. During
the required 28 day period this account drops to a low point of 653,699 (£3,388.87 OANDA
13/8/19).
You also state that your sister will provide the remaining funds however, Appendix C
paragraph 13 states;
1. 13. Funds will be available to the applicant only where the specified documents show
or, where permitted by these Rules, the applicant confirms that the funds are held or
provided by:
(ii) the applicant’s parent(s) or legal guardian(s), and the parent(s) or legal
guardian(s) have provided written consent that their funds may be used by the
applicant in order to study in the UK; and/or
I am not satisfied that you have shown the required funds are available to you. I am therefore
not satisfied that you have achieved 10 points under paragraphs 10 to 14 of Appendix C and
meet the requirements to be granted entry clearance under Tier 4 (General) Student. I
therefore refuse your application under paragraph 245ZV(c) of the Immigration Rules.
Even worse is this decision was made on September 4 and I only got this email today. My Course starts from the 1st of October and my flight is on the 27th. Kindly let me know the best possible recourse to take on this matter.
