Please note that 90 days time is actually the period the Embassy itself processes your application. Your application will probably have to be referred to the Home Office. Once they have pressed the button of referral, their job is over and they have no longer any control on the process. This is where the 90 days timeline ends. There is no limitation on how long the Home Office can take to deal with referral. Some referrals for spouse applications for example (although yours is the one for fiance visa as I understood it) can take up to 6 - 9 months.jamalkhan wrote:but they are bound to give some answers or a decision in 90 Days Timeline, or not?
Depends entirely on what you have submitted in your application. Since you were assisted by a solicitor, they must have ensured everything was prepared correctly and fully. You will only be called for the interview if there are any outstanding questions or issues, which are material to your application. If you have submitted everything, including statements explaining your previous immigration history, there will be no need to call you for the interview.Surely they call me for the interview or something soon?
Surely. The decision will be made by the Home Office. The ECO will simply abide by it. If your application has been already referred, it is good news meaning that the Embassy itself had no outstanding issues and it is unlikely you will be called for an interview from that point onwards. All you need is to wait until they hear back from the Home Office.Surely the deicision has to be made!
You will get a call from ECO once a decision is received from the Home Office. Neither your fiancee, nor your solicitor, nor the ECO nor yourself will be able to influence the referral process. All of you just have to sit tight and wait.jamalkhan wrote: So will I be informed about the progress, for example if my Fiance Wants to chase will they asist her in this regard?
You will have to wait until you get back to the UK and will have to do it within 6 months.We were planning to get married very soon and now all the plans are out of the window.
This is not the Home Office or ECO business, I am afraid.What about the debts I have left, I really need to manage them when I get back and I have only allocated 3-4 months to resolve this
I have seen someone getting their visas within two months, so I would say this will be around the average waiting time.In your expereience do you think is there a possibility at all that it may get sorted in couple of months ????
Not to be funny but you hired a solicitor so he should be your best source of info for all your questions and then it would help the forum if you could tell us what he says. IN any case, I dont know what this clause is so you would have to look it up. However, I think you can't be upset with HO, you took advantage of their hospitality big time. An interview isn't mandatory, if they had interviewed you and refused, then they would have been wasting your time with an undesirable result.jamalkhan wrote:After waiting 14 weeks for a decision and apart from my fiance
I was refused
Completley broken, lost and do not know what to do.
On top of this, the decision was made in First week of june and I was given 28 days however Fedex gave me the passport today. This means it has already been 28 days since the decision was made
Can any body tell me if my right of appeal has also been taken
I wish I never Left UK :
The reason for Refusal from EC was overshadowed undoubtly due to my immigration history however they used clauses such as 290(iii) to refuse the application.
Where is the Human Rights???
I was not even interviewed, was not only given a chance to talk
He overstayed 9 years, sorry that the consequences to one's action is too sobering for the forumchrissy wrote:Jamalkhan, sorry to hear about the refusal. I can only imagine what you are feeling right now.
SYH, dont you think you could be a little more sympathetic? If you only have words that would only further frustrate Jamalkhan, dont you think you should maybe keep them to yourself?
You are not helping the situation, for christs sake, he only just got the decision!! I thought this forum was to help people, not to make people in difficult situations feel even worse than they already do.
P.S How has he taken advantage of HO's 'hospitality', by the way?
Don't judge me lest you be judged.chrissy wrote:Ok well hospitality would imply that the HO knew of his situation and so kindly allowed him to stay in the UK. We all know that if they knew of his situation he would have been deported. Anyway I am going to get off that.
No one is trying to say that he was right in staying in the country when he shouldnt have, however, no one can really judge without having walked in the next persons shoes. I am also not saying anyone should comfort him, but if you have nothing positive to say then just dont say it.
Look here chrissy, I don't appreciate your characterization of my comments as being less than courteous. I have been polite and civil. Being discourtious would have entailed me calling him stupid or something like that. I think you expect me to coddle him or being more indulgent toward him to meet your level of courtesy, otherwise to continue insisting I sound more sympathetic, not to say I am not, is being a bit preachy for me.chrissy wrote:Ok well I guess you are right, SYH. Positivity is not a requirement. I just thought most people, especially on this board, were courteous....especially considering the fact that this forum is to offer help, advice and assistance to people.
You dont have to say it, you can imply it. Which is what I think you did. I am sure you can appreciate I am as entitled to my opinion as you are and in my opinion you were not courteous.Being discourtious would have entailed me calling him stupid or something like that. I think you expect me to coddle him or being more indulgent
OK I am at the point of whatever with you and your soapbox so ...chrissy wrote:You dont have to say it, you can imply it. Which is what I think you did.

FYI : Meaning of courteous :-Characterized by gracious consideration toward others.
Then I guess the best option would be to get married and see if that changes their minds.jamalkhan wrote:Guys Do not fight over me, I do not deserve any sympathy
I should have really got married to my fiance legally/illegally and not come back.
any way the letter says that ECO is not satisfied that
(iii) each of the parties intends to live permanently with the other as his or her spouse or civil partner after the marriage or civil partnership
Because I got enagaged to my Fiance almost a year ago however I knew her for over 5 years and he does not believe that we are going to get married. I stated that fact that I did not want to get married at that time until both mine and her families are agreed
Once again this has been written in context with my immigration history as ECO believes that I will not follow this rule because I did not previously when I was a kid and overstayed for 9 years due to the mistakes that my elders made in the begning
Secondly he also used
(v) there will, after the marriage or civil partnership, be adequate accommodation for the parties and any dependants without recourse to public funds in accommodation which they own or occupy exclusively;
This is so not true, I provided them with the survey report of the accomodation that I wil be living in and also the signing letter of my fiances property which will be ready by end of this year.
