"You have claimed 25 points for Access to Funds as required under provision (d) of Table 4 of Appendix A of the Immigration Rules.
On the basis of the documents you have provided, however, the Secretary of State is not satisfied that these meet the requirements specified under Appendix A of the Immigration Rules and you do not qualify for the award of 25 points in this area.
The reasons for this decision are detailed below. You have claimed 25 points for having access to £50,000 under provision (d) of Table 4 of Appendix A of the Immigration Rules.
You have provided sufficient evidence to demonstrate that you do have access to at least £50,000.
As you are applying under provision (d) of Table 4, you are required to demonstrate that you meet the following additional criteria:
(i) are applying for leave to remain,
(ii) have, or were lasted granted, leave as a Tier 1 (post-Study Work) Migrant,
(iii) were, on a date falling within the three months immediately prior to the date of application,
(1) registered with HM Revenue and Customs as self-employed, or
(2) registered as a new business in which he is a director, or
(3) registered as a director of an existing business,
(iv) are engaged in business activity, other than the work necessary to administer his business, in an occupation which appears on the list of occupations skilled to National Qualifications Framework level 4 or above, as stated in the Codes of Practice in Appendix J, and provides the specified evidence in paragraph 41-SD,
You have demonstrated that you satisfy (i), and (ii), (iii) above.
For requirement (iv) although you have provided a contract it does not include a landline
phone number as stated in the Immigration Rules.
As a result of the above, you have not demonstrated that you meet the requirements of the Rules to be awarded points under provision (d) of Table 4 of Appendix A.
You have submitted no evidence that you qualify for points under any of the other provisions in Table 4 of Appendix A, for example having access to £50,000 and, we have been unable to award points for this attribute in accordance with Appendix A of the Immigration Rules. "
My question is how UKBA could be so ignorant that the case worker didnt distinguish the rest two parts of the appendix A. I did submit three letters each confirming the same from Lloyds Bank as requested. My team member got the same letters. Wording mentioned here is exactly the same as it states on our letters.
On top of that theres another ignorant error by the case worker. At the front page where it explains the outcome of the decision and which should be made towards the end of an assessment, it says :-
"You have been awarded xxx points under Appendix A, 0/10 points under Appendix Band 0/10 points under Appendix C. Detailed below is your score for each of the areas in which points were claimed and the reasons for awarding the points scored."
Later on in the explanation they awarded me points under Appendix B and Appendix C. This is ridiculous. Straightaway insult to our efforts. :/
I did submit contract with all the clients details(as per the policy and guidelines) except landline as my client didnt have one. They havent mentioned about mobile so I didnt give.
They just cut copy pasted the same reason on the rest of the letter. Its really annoying to see same reason everywhere. There are contradictory statements throughout my appeal letter. Also there is grammatical mistakes on mine and my partners letters. I dont know whether these points will help in my appeal! But am gonna speak to them people!
I have applied already and am waiting for appeal hearing. Any guidance will be appreciated
