UK Standard Visitor visa rejection under Appendix V, paragraph 4.2(a)
Upvote:9
You are a lower-tiered academic who proposes to visit the UK during a semester break. Your financial position is weak and you are using a UK-based co-sponsor. You have applied three times unsuccessfully. A previous refusal was for disproportionate outlay (that's a bad thing). The exhibits in your question are from your 3rd refusal and it is a natural and predictable follow-on to the previous refusal.
I shall be obliged if you please suggest me some valuable tips.
You are in a tailspin of serial refusals and the ECO has made it clear that this chain of events has taken a life of its own ("...I am satisfied that your personal circumstances have not changed..."). The immediate remedy for serial refusals is to stop applying. While this "tip" may seem unnecessarily pedantic, we have serial refusal cases in the archives here that demonstrate people routinely ignore it. From the ECO's viewpoint you are obsessed with getting in to the UK and that's a very wrong message to send them. So stop applying, forget it, go elsewhere for a holiday, or rendez-vous with your sponsor in a 3rd country, or get diplomatic credentials, or become a monk on a mountain top and get them to come to you, or whatever; it's not going to work for you until your circumstances have been changed at the roots and branches.
I didn't get what immigration history, they were talking about ?
They were referring to your two, now three refusals. It's your history. It is bound to you like Acrocorinthus is bound to Sisyphus. Like Robin and his merry men... Like Chip and Dale, you and your history will be together and they will look with increasing scepticism at every application you make (which gets further appended to your history). That message virtually jumps off the page and they have been really clear about it. And for your implicit question...
So what to do about it?
You (implicitly) want to know how to break the chain of serial refusals and to clear the record and to enjoy some mobility. Fortunately there is a wonderful panacea for this: successfully apply for an entry clearance. Once you have done this, your history will fade into irrelevance. There is no other cure quite like it. You show them an entry clearance and BAM future applications will go straight to the green triage on the first sift. Some might go to the orange triage, but this is where people have become overconfident.
This cure-all has a paradox that some see as cruel, how to break the chain when a refusal is all but certain? There are two ways:
- Change your personal circumstances in a visible and radical way. For you it means advance in your career, get some promising standing in your career, show some commitment and dedication to your career for a while, organise a family, maintain an independent lifestyle whilst achieving financial solvency, and all the rest of those things. OR
- Instruct a solicitor with a nationally acknowledged practice area in serial refusals. You can expect this to be bloody expensive, but the option is there for you. We're talking in the neighbourhood of GBP 3,800 or so to unsnarl your imbroglio (if they even take you on) but that's a pure guess on my part.
In all events, stop applying.
