After almost 3 months of waiting on Friday we got the news my partners fiancé visa had been refused.
The refusal was based on not providing my latest bank statement before application. I definitely supplied this when I sent my documents to the VFS scanning centre, this is backed up by the fact that I received the documents back from the scanning centre, and all my bank statements are there.
In addition, the ECO emailed last week asking for the bank statement which I resent by email. Three days later the visa was refused on these grounds!
Me and my partner are upset, frustrated and annoyed as this is clearly a UKVI problem. As well as the having to now spend even longer apart, it feels like we have wasted a lot of money.
We were given the choice of appeal, but this can take months and months! I have already contacted my MP and put a complaint in to UKVI asking for a reconsideration, as this wasn’t our fault.
Is there anything else we can do to quicken the process or get the decision overturned sooner? Has anyone else gone through a similar thing? At the moment things look very bleak.
