Problem: Spouse Visa Entry Clearance refusal on Genuineness Grounds
Outcome: Successful visa approval after the Home Office acceptance of representations during the appeal process.
How long did it take? Approximately 6 weeks.
Our expert immigration lawyers recently assisted a client whose application for a Spouse Visa Entry Clearance application (prepared by another firm) was initially refused by the Home Office on grounds of genuineness. The client, seeking to join their spouse in the UK, faced the challenge of proving the authenticity of their relationship.
Upon receiving instructions from the client, our immigration lawyers conducted a thorough review of the refusal letter, identifying the specific concerns raised by the Home Office regarding the genuineness of the marital relationship. Recognising the urgency of the matter, our lawyers promptly initiated the appeal process to challenge the refusal.
Simultaneously, our immigration lawyers crafted a comprehensive set of representations, addressing the Home Office’s concerns and providing additional evidence to support the authenticity of the relationship. These representations were submitted along with the appeal notice, outlining a strong case for the client’s eligibility for the Spouse Visa.
Before the appeal was officially listed for a hearing, the Home Office carefully reviewed the representations and, acknowledging the strength of the evidence provided, decided to accept the representations. Consequently, the client’s appeal process was halted, and their Spouse Visa was granted in a matter of weeks.
The success of this case highlights the importance of proactive and strategic legal representation. Our immigration lawyers understand the emotional and logistical challenges faced by clients in such situations and work diligently to navigate the complexities of immigration law.
