Try visamail@justice.ieZulqarnain wrote: ↑Wed Oct 14, 2020 1:45 pmPLEASE DO NOT MERGE THIS TOPIC WITH MY OLDER ONE. THIS IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
Hi All,
My Irish study visa was refused sadly and I appealed the case.
I emailed all of my appeal documents to my friend in Ireland to post them to Dublin visa office locally to make the delivery process bit quicker. However, looks like it backfired.
It has been 5 weeks and I have not heard anything from Visa Office. I have been emailing them every week to find out even they received my appeal case or is this a typical appeal processing delay.
I am badly stuck at this stage. I can not even make a new application or resubmit appeal, thinking what if they already have received my existing appeal documents and processing them.
Does anyone know anything about this? Is this how long usually visa office takes to respond to study appeals? Or my documents are lost somewhere?
Thanks in advance.
Wait please. As these days it’s taking longer to process.Zulqarnain wrote: ↑Wed Oct 14, 2020 3:09 pmSo with your experience, what would you advise me to do at this stage?
Wait or re-submit?
ID: - Insufficient documentation submitted in support of the application
INCO 1nconsistencies e.g. contradictions in the information supplied.
Inconsistencies in the information supplied in support of your application have been noted by the visa
officer and have diminished the overall strength of your application.
- Internship completion date.
OC: Condition The applicant may overstay following proposed visit.
The Visa Officer is not yet satisfied, based on the supporting documentation submitted. that the
applicant has demonstrated that the primary reason for coming to Ireland is for the purposes of study.
This should be fully addressed in any appeal.
OC: Observe the conditions of the visa - the visa sought is for a specific purpose and duration:- the
applicant has not satisfied the visa officer that such conditions would be observed.
Information supplied by you concerning your personal, economic and family circumstances has been insufficient as yet to satisfy the visa officer that you would observe the conditions of any visa with granted, particular regard to the use of public funds/public resources, and the possible risk of overstaying in the State. This should be fully addressed in any appeal.
Start considering taking your studies project to another country.Zulqarnain wrote: ↑Thu Oct 15, 2020 2:01 pmI have tried that Visamail email address many times. No response whatsoever.
How easy it all could have been if someone from Visa Office had answered YES or NO simply to my only one question. Emailed them 5 times in last 5 weeks.
I am just confused to figure out if I should wait more (already been 5 weeks) or shall I submit a new application or resend the existing appeal?
That's incorrect. Colleges in Ireland must provide you with a full refund if your study visa is refused.Zulqarnain wrote: ↑Thu Oct 15, 2020 10:39 pm@Zerubbabel after I have paid fees in many grands? non-refundable you know.
I had better expectations than this at least from Irish System. Just a little disappointed.
Refund of fees
Students who officially de-register between the beginning of Semester 1 and October 31st are entitled to a full refund of the total Student Contribution paid.
I would suggest that you wait for an extra week or two. I don't know why you haven't received a response from visamail email, as they normally respond very quickly. Maybe it's the wording. Maybe your email domain was blocked. Try sending it from a different email address.International Students who have been offered a place on a programme at the Institute and have
paid their fees but subsequently have their VISA application refused will be refunded in full.

Just to update you all on what I am doing.
As discussed, I contacted WIT and found that they may return my fees but take off 25% admin fees which is a huge cut. Also, I will loose much more I have spent on visa fees etc. So what they will return me will be of no use for me because I won't be able to get admission anywhere else with that amount plus I will loose one full year.
I am in same boat. My appeal was received in Dublin office on 18th September tracked by DHL signed by xx. Still awaiting for decision.
So I have now updated my appeal documents, improved them bit more, added more evidence and information and resubmitted it. This time the delivery is fully tracked and Visa Office will have my appeal hopefully next week.
