Please help rejection of Visa coz of Maintainance

[amnandu]

Hello friends,

I have finished my masters and have got all the points expect the funds.I did have 800 pounds for more than 3 months but the problem for rejection of my visa was that i sent an online bank statement.I was helpless at that time coz i didnt get my bank statements on time and when i went to bank n asked them about it bank people said they cant give me a statement straight away and also refused to sign or put a stamp on it sayin its against the bank rule. My friends too had the same problem and all they did was sending the online bank statement and they got their PSW. I got refusal and got an AIT- tier 1 form with it saying i can appeal for it.I have filled the form stating the same reason and also sent them the original bank statements from 17nov08 to 17mar09.

I am worried about my visa..Can you please let me know what can i do...am just worried and nervous now.

Am waitin for opinions from u guys........

As long as you had the required amount in your account when you applied then you should have your appeal allowed, the only problem you might have is if your balance dropped at anytime during the 3 month period then you might see the HO asking for re-consideration even if the judge allows it. Quite a few people that I know have had issues with online statements and it all got resolved at appeal. So don't fret and all the best.

Well did you ask for an oral or paper hearing? If you asked for an oral hearing then you should hear from them in about 7-10days with your hearing date sometime 4 weeks after that. Most times if your case is clear cut then you should get the judge probably telling you on the day that your appeal is allowed but if it needs some consultation then you'll be told that you'll get the decision in the post(everyone gets their decision sent by post anyways). Unfortunately I don't know how long it takes paper hearing decisions to come through. All the best

I asked for a paper hearing. Did i do a mistake by not asking for audio hearing?? or by not consulting a solicitor?

I don't think you have a complicated case that requires the exorbitant charges which these lawyers charge but it would have been nice if you had chosen an oral hearing. Well just make sure your witness statement states clearly what happened and how it all led to your refusal because that is what the judge will be relying upon including the bank statement.

Thnks a lot...i feel a bit comfortable now.I was jus worried about this matter..

There is good chance of you winning the appeal. But if i were you i would have requested an ORAL hearing where you could have told the judge your side of the story. Every allowed case (SIMPLE, LIKE YOURS WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE THROUGH OVERVIEW) puts some pressure on HO and HO Reps gets embaraced in hearing as well, where they report back the findings and fed it back, Which might come handy for future applicants.

But i am confident if your dont have any complications with your account and the balance did not drop below 800 pounds then you wil WIN the appeal.

Good Luck and All the best
