Blind Visa Officer: Tier 4 Refusal

high_aimer · Post by **high_aimer** » Wed Nov 04, 2009 10:13 pm

Hello friends,

I recently applied for Tier 4 Student visa but they rejected it by saying I had not attached the Visa Letter from my University with the application.

I DID attach it and it DID come back from embassy with the rest of documents. Its clear that they just didn't look at it.

Any idea what should I do now? If I go for the Administrative Review, how do I prove that the visa letter WAS attached to the application?

Any insight please?

Thanks.

If any body knows the Address/email/fax of Administrative Review team in Abu Dhabi embassy, please share it with me as they didn't even bother to write their address on the form.

I'm sorry I can't help with the Abu Dhabi review team's details, but I would like to tell you this happened to my wife recently in Oman. The uni has her on a full PhD studentship, paying for everything and STILL they failed to notice that on the letter.

Actually what happened was that when my wife went into the embassy to collect, and she saw they'd rejected it on false grounds, she mentioned it to the lady at reception who apparently forwarded the info on to the EC Officer who'd made the mistake.

It turned out okay eventually -- the Entry Clearance Officer who dealt with the case got in touch with her by telephone because if they make mistakes and it comes up in Administrative Review, they will be in big shit with their supervisor, she admitted as much to my wife.

Still missed the start of her course and all, it took them 3-4 weeks to sort this mess out. It's also pushed my visa application out. What a mess.

Hi friend,
some blinds are sitting there. I am also suffering because of them. Go for review , you do not need to give any proof except that form they given it to you. Write there that eco failed to realise that the visa letter is there in documents. You will get a visa for sure. Good luck

Thanks for your encouraging replies guys.

I managed to get their email address and have now send them the Admin Review request by attaching a copy of the visa letter.

I am hoping for the best.

Hopefully you will get a positive response. The date stamp on your visa letter is a proof that you would have included it with your application. Moreover they can verify it from your university.
