Tier 1 Visa from India rejected - PLEASE HELP

[maniarshad]

hi
any luck yet???

[lsuvarnaprasad]

Hi,

I have applied for Tier-1 visa on 22nd August 2008 and I got my passport yesterday with a Refusal Letter.

They have refused my application under paragraph 245C(c) & 245(e) of the Immigration rules.

I had claimed 20 points for Age, 30 Points for Qualification and 40 Points for Previous Earnings. 10 points for English Language and 10 for Maintenance.

They have awarded me 20 for Age, 30 Points for Qualification and 10 Points for English Requirement. But for Previous Earnings and for Maintenance criteria, no points have been awarded.
To support my Previous earnings, I have provided my form-16, payslips, offer letter (along with salary revision letters) and one year bank statement. And to support funds maintenance I have provided 3 months bank statement. I have provided internet printout attested by bank officer. The ECO was not satisfied with the bank statements I have provided as it doesn't have my name on it..
ECO comments that internet printout should be accompanied by an original bank letter vouching for their authenticity. I was not aware of this and I didn't provided it.

Can anybody please suggest me what should I do now. Can I request for administration review along with the proof document from bank? Will they consider it?
Please help me.

Thanks in advance,
Suvarna Prasad

As i have often repeated, applicants need to be careful while applying for Tier-1 from India. ECO applies the guidance note much more stringently and infact at times more strictly then are dictated by the guidelines. At the same time, if the applicants carefully reads the guidance notes and also seek advice from fellow applicants on this forum/elsewhere before submitting the applictions. If not anything else, atleast the avoidable mistakes can be avoided.

kind regards,

You r very right push but hte thing to worry here about is that the ECO is wrong in saying that the account can not be joint with the parents. I have seen many succesful cases where maintenance funds using joint accounts with parents in India were used . Moreover 99% of family joint accounts in India are on an Either or Survivor basis which means the account holders have unhindered and unlimited excess without seeking permission from the other account holders. Thus the money concerned is fully accessible by the applicant.

Please let me know if I am wrong.

Please let me know if I am wrong.

And therefore the account is fully accessible by the non visa applicants, and can be drained by them without the applicant being able to do anything about it.

Every application is looked at afresh in light of the guidance and the evidence provided. Outcome of other applications, even though based on exactly the same parameters can not be used as a precedent. That said, one has to clearly satisfy the caseworker that he/she has adequate funds available to him/her. I am not sure where did you ick-up my quote from, and am thus unable to further elaborate without reading the context.

I dont think any family member will do so to jeopardise the visa application of the main applicant rather he/she will help the main applicant in getting the visa by any means.

I have picked up your quote from this thread only on the previous page.
Further to add, if an ECO refuses a joint account(either or survivor) it will be approved in the subsequent review for sure. Rest is on the luck of the applicant.
