My Wife is from Kerala too and she applied for her spouse Visa at Cochin VFS in late June, still awating the outcome.
Was your overdraft the only cause for refusal?
The savings are very good, you need to show that after accomodation costs (mortgage\rent & council tax) that you have £100.95 left over each week. Might be good to show a budget if this was the only reason for refusal.
Hope your both over 21, as in Nov 2008 the rules changed.
Where in India did you apply from?
Hi Thanks for the reply. That was very kind of you. You have got successful settlement visa? If yes, can you pls help me to clear out the following doubt?real life wrote:do not worry about finiacial

but you want to take care other supporting documents
Hi All,sheejapy wrote:Hi All,
I am applying for spouse settlement visa to go to London, to join my husband, who has ILR there.
I got married in November 2008, and applied for Visa just after that. However got refused on the ground that my husband had an overdraft in his account. We have not put any covering letter in the application stating the reason for overdraft. Also he had less bank balance because of wedding expenditures.
It is 6 months after the visa refusal, and we have new set of bank statements showing consistence improvement in bank balance. He has saved 500+ for the first few months and then 1000+ in the last 2-3 months. Total we raised the funds upto 7000 pounds. Other than salary, he sold his car, and transferred some of money from his mother's account (which was left over after wedding).
I dont have any savings in my account, as I also spent all savings for marriage. I have gold with me worth 4000 pounds almost, but no proof to show that. I lost the bills
Even if we have parents as dependents, we will put a letter from them stating that they are retired pensioners ( we have their pension certificates as proof). We have no other dependents.
We have made the covering letter ready stating that all the over expenditures of at that time was because of wedding expenditures.
Has anybody gone through same situation and
do you think this much savings would help us to get through this time?

Make sure when sending letters from family, friends etc that they are sent with a copy of their id such as passport or driving licence.
There has been a lot of speculation regarding letters in general which have been wrote for the purpose of the visa, I have even known them scrutinise the letters as not genuine, this happened to a couple of my personal friends.
Good luck and keep us all posted.
prettypolitical wrote:Yeah!!!
They applied for a settlement visa, submitted all the evidence they had along with letters, some handwrittem and some typed, the visa was not solely refused on what they thought were not genuine letters, it was other issues as well but they did mention that they thought one of the letters were not genuine.
JUst something for you to consider as they may question the validity of the letter.
Good Luck

Thanks Prem.Prem wrote:Hi Sunu
That looks good to me!!
What's the difference in question 8.7.10 & 8.7.15, is it more than £404??
Goodluck with the app did you apply from Cochin? Keep checking the status oline ok, they only ring you 3-4 days after the status change.
We applied on June 24th and status changed on Jully 31st for medical, my wife only got called on 5th of August, so just over 5 weeks wait. I followed quite a few people applying from India and this has been the trend, look out for around the 1st of November.
Good Luck Again!!!!!
