Apologize didnt know i cant use external links here .....

PLEASE SEE THE SUPREME COURT ORDER UNDERLINED BELOW ...

Landmark Judgement pronounced by SC dealing with guardianship & custodial and visitation rights to parents and children stuck in matrimonial disputes
E-mail Print option in slimbox / lytebox? (info) PDF
ROXANN SHARMA V/S ARUN SHARMA

CIVIL APPEAL No. 1966 OF 2015

In a remarkable judgment dealing with interim custody of child suffering in parent’s matrimonial disputes, visitation rights and guardianship, a 2 judge bench of Supreme Court laid down various propositions of law while awarding the interim custody till final disposal by the trial court to the mother. The bench speaking through Justice Vikramjit Sen, lays down very sharp observations and examines various definitions of a ‘guardian’, ‘visitation rights’ and tests the issue from the angle of provisions of Hindu Minority & Guardianship Act, 1956 and Guardian & Wards Act, 1890.In a custody battle between estranged parents, a minor child, who has not completed five years of age, shall be allowed to remain with the mother, the Supreme Court has ruled saying that in such cases child should not treated as a "chattel". The court said that under Hindu Minority and Guardianship (HMG) Act, a father can be guardian of the property of the minor child but not the guardian of his person if the child is less than five years old.

The Court said that there can be no cavil that when a Court is confronted by conflicting claims of custody there are no rights of the parents which have to be enforced; the child is not a chattel or a ball that is bounced to and fro the parents. It is only the child's welfare which is the focal point for consideration. Parliament rightly thinks that the custody of a child less than five years of age should ordinarily be with the mother and this expectation can be deviated from only for strong reasons.

The apex court quashed the order of Bombay high court which granted custody of a two-year-old child to father on the ground that the Mother had not established her suitability to be granted interim custody of the Infant.

The HMG Act postulates that the custody of an infant or a tender aged child should be given to his/her mother unless the father discloses cogent reasons that are indicative of and presage the livelihood of the welfare and interest of the child being undermined or jeopardized if the custody is retained by the mother. Section 6(a) of the Act, therefore, preserves the right of the father to be the guardian of the property of the minor child but not the guardian of his person whilst the child is less than five years old. It carves out the exception of interim custody, in contradistinction of guardianship, and then specifies that custody should be given to the mother so long as the child is below five years in age. The court said that the Act placed the onus on father to prove that it was not in the welfare of the infant child to be placed in the custody of mother and HC order virtually nullifies the spirit of the enactment. The Act immediately provides that the custody of a minor who has not completed the age of 5 years shall ordinarily be with the mother. The use of the word 'ordinarily' cannot be over-emphasized. It ordains a presumption, albeit a rebuttable one, in favour of the mother.

The point of me posting the link to 'Sole Responsibility' was for WHEN you get to the point of applying for his visa. HO are very strict about this regarding children. The Indian rules is irrelevant.
understood. I have declared in the form that i have a son. Is there anything else i should be aware about pertaining to this ? please let me know CR001 ...?

i have another another big concern the ex-party order from the kerala state court will it be of any impact to my application ? Her state court order was issued on false representation of facts on me. While my state court order says the marriage is null and void. I have disputed it in her state court about the compensation, monetary damages she has imposed on me and claiming the marriage is valid. Now the court is not arguing on the marriage but only on the child maintenance. Does this situation will attract any immigration rules ? will the HO consider the ongoing case for visitation rights and maintainability ? please advice ... thanks

I cannot add any comments to the way you are trying to meet the financial requirments. You mention policy and spoke about this earlier in the thread. However, any funds you rely on as 'savings' must be held in your sponsors account for x amount of time. If she has not received some of the money, it cannot be counted. If she splits the rent received with her sister, she can only use half of the rent as 'rental income'. The easiest and less complicated way is to wait till she has 6 months payslips and corresponding bank statements from her employment, showing she meets the £18,600pa requirement.

Hello C001 , Hope you are doing great !! I would like to start by thanking you in helping me preparing the documents for filing. Well on the other side the bad news is my visa got rejected. Well I couldn't able to find ways as how to attach the refusal letter. But here is the refusal reasons.

Dear XXXXXXX

Your human right claim in an application for entry clearance made on 29/01/2018 is refused.

What this means for you

You can appeal this decision. Instructions on how to appeal are in the next steps section of this letter.

The reason for this decision are set out on the next page.

Your sincerely, KB Sheffield Visa Section

Reasons for refusal

On 29/01/2018 you made an application for entry clearance to the UK under Appendix FM to the immigration rules on the basis of your family life with your partner XXXXXXXX.

Your application has been considered under those rules, and with reference to Article 8 of the European convention on human rights(ECHR). The relevant immigration rules can be viewed on gov.uk here:www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules.

This decision takes in to account as a primary consideration of the best interest of any relevant child in line with section 55 of the borders, citizenship and immigration act 2009.

We have considered your application under paragraph EC-P.1.1 of Appendix FM. However, you do not qualify for entry clearance under the 5 year partner route for the following reasons.

Suitability
Your application does not fall for refusal on grounds of suitability under section S-EC of Appendix FM.

Eligibility
You meet the eligibility requirements of section E-ECP of appendix FM.

Eligibility Relationship requirements
You meet the eligibility requirements of paragraphs E-ECP.2.1 to 2.10.

Eligibility Financial requirement
You do not meet the eligibility financial requirement of paragraphs E-ECP.3.1 to 3.4. because you have stated in your visa application form that you meet the financial requirement through CAT A. I am not able to take in to account any potential employment you have available to you in the UK or any offers of financial support from third parties. In order to meet the financial requirements of Appendix FM your sponsor needs a gross income of atleast 18,600 per annum. You state that your sponsor is employed by xxxxX Since 23/10/2017 and earns an annual salary of 48,000 pounds. As evidence of your sponsors employment you have submitted an employment letter, wage slips dated octorber 2017 to January 2018 and one months bank statement dated November 2017.

The immigration rules state that in respect of salaried employment in the UK, all of the following evidence must be provided

(http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/polic ... ndix-fmse/):
(a) payslips covering:
(i) a period of 6 months prior to the date of application if the person has been employed by their current employer for atleast 6 months (and where paragraph 13(b) of this appendix does not apply; or (ii)any period of salaried employment in the period of 12 months prior to the date of application if the person has been employed by their current employer for less than 6 months(or atleast 6 months but the person does not rely on paragraph 13(a) of this appendix), or in the financial year(s)relied upon by a self employed person.
(b) A letter from the employer(s) who issued the payslips at paragraph 2(a) confirming:(i) the persons employment and gross annual salary;(ii) the length of their employment;(iii)the period over which they have been or were paid the level of salary relied upon in the application; and (iv)the type of employment(permanent, fixed-tern contract or agency).
(c) Personal bank statements corresponding to the same period(s) as the payslips at paragraph 2(a),showing that the salary has been paid in to an account in the name of the person or in the name of the person and their partner jointly.

You have not submitted bank statements dated October, December 2017 and January 2018. You have therefore failed to provide the required documents relating to your sponsors employment. These documents are specified in the immigration rules in Appendix FM-SE and must be provided. I there fore refuse your application under paragraph EC-P.1.1 (d) of Appendix FM of the immigration rules (E-ECP.3.1)


Eligibility English Language Requirement

You do not meet the eligibility English language requirement of paragraphs E-ECP .4.1. to 4.2 because you are not exempt from the English language requirements under paragraph E-ECP.4.2. In addition, you are not a national of a majority English speaking country listed in paragraph GEN 1.6.

You state you meet the English language through your degree from the university of madras. You have not provided evidence to show your qualification is recognized by NARIC UK to be equivalent to the standard of a bachelor's or master's degree of Phd in the UK, which was taught in English. I therefore refuse your application under paragraph EC-P.1.1(d) of appendix FM of the immigration rules. (E-ECP.4.1)

Exceptional Circumstances

In so doing we have taken into account, under paragraph GEN3.3 of appendi FM, the best interest of any relevant child as a primary consideration.

However, based upon the information and/or evidence you have provided we are satisfied that the minimum income requirement is not met, and we have decided that you do not meet the financial requirement under paragraphs E-ECP.3.1. to E-ECP.3.4. of Appendix FM.

We have also considered your application under paragraph GEN.3.3 of appendiz FM. We have concluded that there are no exceptional circumstances in your case which would render refusal a breach of Article 8 of ECHR because it would result in unjustifiably harsh consequences for you, your partner, a relevant child or another family member.

Based on the information you have provided we have decided that there are no such exceptional circumstances in your case.

Refusal under the partner rules

It seems for me you had a wrong NARIC certificate (if I am correct). It should have been written on 2 of them:
This statement gives information relevant to your immigration application to UK Visas & Immigration.

The question is does this two document meet the english language requirements ? I have a C1 level qualification from Naric and im sure when they mean they have accessed me on the english language only. The degree i submitted is an engineering degree from india and Naric says it is equivalent to Bachelors(Honours)degree in UK i dont know what it means and how do i correlate this with the refusal grounds from the entry clearance officer.

The requirement is to submit 6 months payslips and the corresponding 6 months bank statements. If you did not submit these, the refusal is correct. The rules are very clear on this. 3 months bank statements are unfortunately not enough.
