Hi got a question for anyone who has done the biometric recently. Does the applicant only need to take their passport? I understand we have to send a signed application form to Sheffield, can my wife print it out as soon as we have submitted the application and then send it to me here along with other docunents before the biometric? Or does it have to be after? Thanks

i read on a forum somwhere, chat history only needs to be sent if husband or wife have been seperate more then 3 months after marriage
i dont know if its true but thats what it said on one of the immigration forums
i will try to locate it and print it on this forum

Hi, I applied in August, I got a not straightforward email few days ago, saying application not straightforward and application will not be processed in standard time and if this changes they will contact me again but then few mins later I got another email asking for additional documentation to process my application so, I'm stressed and worried. What do you guys make of this. I sent that additional information straight away. I did a status check and it came back in progress........

Not sure what I can do.... I thought maybe escalte after the 90 days, which will be on 01/12/2015... The problem now is that my wifes English Language test has expired as of 05/11/2015... So inshallah I am waiting for good news....

Don't worry about the English test expiring, I'm sure it only had to be valid when you submit your application, just do dua Inshaallah Allah Paak will do what's best for us. I'm the sponsor applied for my husband

Plz Remember me in your prayers!!

They are doing this, they bin the payslips or bank statements and send refusal letter just to delay the process and keep their visa approval statistics low , it has happened with many people . Why they don't believe your relationship is not genuine ?? Have you provided the marriage certificate and other subsisting documents ??

thanks
Well it's all bullshit honestly!! We have provided all chat history, certificate and Holiday pics and all but still you get their rudeness!! But pray fr me as i need then gonna appeal hope Allah overturned it so could get it done coz I heard court is a big mess tthing

wsalam sorry to hear ur rejection
may allah make it easy inshaAllah. well appealing takes time if it list for hearing. for getting decision overturned i think ECO have 28 days to take overturned or send bundle back for court hearing.
yes appeal submission is better from UK with covering all the rejected points
ppl got refused bcos of missinlips etc but i have a questions if u dont mind
why eco said that its not look like family realtionship why he not satisfied with ur relation what proves and ongoing communication documents did you attach with ur application ?
I don't know wat family thing he was pointing but maybe family pics or stuff he's asking coz we sent loads of pics but only couple pics so will send back the family group pics too but trust me they are just making it delay nothing else
