Lesson to be learnt from that: You can't ignore what claims you made in previous applications. You need to examine them carefully and provide a credible explanation that covers not just your current claims but every single document submitted and every single thing that has been said in the past.In your previous application you claimed to be retired.
Why this obsession with minimal words? Use as many words as necessary unless you're looking to cut corners (again)!Covering letter with minimal words to explain why again???
(Any advice on what to say?)
Lease contracts don't demonstrate ownership. Land registry records do. In original.>>House Ownership Documents (lease etc) - it’s on my mum's name
>>Shops Ownership documents (lease etc) - dad owns them
Include but they have low credibility value. Easily faked.Rental agreements of shops
Regular income over the years is, as you know, more credible than one or two big deposits.Bank statements (with a current accumulated balance/savings of nearly 500,000 Rs)
Good. Even better if you mention that they haven't got new passports since then (i.e. stamps are still visible)Copies of passport pages with visa stamps of counties (twice Dubai, and Saudi Arabia) they have travelled since last rejection.
Is it a prestige college? Was a huge "donation" paid? If not then include this but realise it doesn't add much credibility.Sister's college registration letter - she's doing a 2 years diploma
course.
I would clear in my mind exactly what each document is intended to support. It sounds like a mish-mash. Documents intended to demonstrate sponsor's finances are preferably kept separate from documents intending to show reason for visit are preferably kept separate from documents showing they have reason to go back. Documents like invitation cards, hall booking receipts etc are a side show. They make your application look like it was carefully compiled. They do not prove anything.A local banqueting hall’s booking letter, confirming my daughter’s party of 85 people.
>>An invitation card
>>Birth certificate of my daughter and my sister's son
>>My salary slips and bank statements
>>My House documents that I own
You don't get it! The IO starts with the suspicion they want to live here illegally. He then looks at everything submitted in the past and present to find something that supports his suspicions. Just one teeny little document, just one apparently contradictory claim. The onus, my friend, is big time on you to prove without a shadow of doubt every single qualification they are required to meet.Honestly, there is nothing to hide .. they just want to come, see their grandkids and go back!!!
BS. They said it both times. They may have called once in the middle of the working day and hung up after half a ring. They have no incentive to make contact with you, don't assume they will.I was unable to judge the bona fides of your sponsor as I have been unable to speak to them at the time of decision.
