TIRE 1 Enterprenur Visa Rejected

Post by vinith » Thu Mar 21, 2013 4:58 pm

Hello every one.

I have applied TIRE 1 enterprenur visa on 22nd of February 2013 and got a letter on 18th of march saying that my visa got rejected and got an appeal form to re-apply for appele. I provided all original documents and every thing is on my own name. They havent gave me any points for funds(75 points) and they mentioned in sections saying "Although you have provided a job title that is listed in Appendix J, the only evidence that you have submitted to demonstrate that you are active in that occupation as part of your business." I have taken printouts of my company website. But again they mentioned " This printout does not contain your name and therefore does not meet the requirements as listed at paragraph 41-SD(c)(iii) of Appendix of immigration rules". This is what they mentioned in that. dont know what to do on this..
Can any one suggest me about this and did any one had same issues as meany suggestions are much appreciated.

Thank you

VJ

hello,
your name on the company print out MUST be the same as in your international passport or travel doc. So all they are trying to tell you is that you are not the same person, so cant claim all point.
My advice is for you to make corrections to your name in the company print out and reapply, while attaching a cover letter explaining mistake. You can also consider using a lawyer for reapplication. This my advice depends on the fact that your name on the printout was not that same as your name on your travel doc

Thank you for your reply. Sure, I will appeal. Could you please tell me have you got any idea about paper hearing and oral hearing . I hope in my case paper hearing is okay , If not do I definitely have to go for oral hearing? I heard barristers charge £500 to £600 to come and assist during hearing ... Do I need to go all these as I all my documents are original. Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thank you

I was not awarded 75 points for funds either even though I had sent my bank statements.

Sorry to hear that.

The thing is that you will get 75 points for attributes if you satisfy all of the requirements like having funds available, disposable in UK, Active in your business and that includes to proof of advertising, having at least one running contract and many more.
If one satisfies all of the above then one gets 75 points for attributes.

I know it is pretty tricky of UKBA.

So if you see in (iv) it says specified evidence in paragraph 41-SD and that covers all advertising material.

Could you tell me if you sent business card having your name on them as an advertising material.
Thanks

No problem. Its really sad that you have put all your efforts in generating an application and just one small stupid thing got in your way.
Now I think you can generate your own website print outs that clearly show your name in contact us section also order new brochure having your name mentioned on them and your personal business card (with your name, your position in compay and contact number) as well.
I suggest you to start writing a cover letter saying that in these are the proofs for it and explain that normally when you adverise its the company this advertisement is about not a particular person. You also state that as you are the director and owner of the company so indirectly it is also your advertisement.
Buas far as rule is concerned, now you realize that it was a mistake so here you are with all adverisment materials with your name and business.
Hope that helps.

if your current leave to remain is valid than you don't get right of appeal because you are legal to stay in country so you can reapply.

I have applied Tier 1 Team (Entrepreneur) visas on 20 the Feb 2013 from 50K PSW Cat route me and my Partner both got refused 19th March letter received on 22 march 2013 because of same issue of Advertisement (Not mentioning Names in Advertisement) and also did not provide Current Appointment Report from company House ( which i may have doubt my solicitor did not provide) and also not been awarded any points for funds ( Funds are held 25K in my account and 25k in my partner account. Declaration signed by both team member with solicitor approval and was attached to application to declare funds can be used by both of the team member) that was all my story.
but here comes the difficult situation I have been given the Right of Appeal but my partner do not have the right of appeal because she still got her PSW visa which is due to expire on 29 March.
MY refusal point can be justifiable in appeal (hopefully) because i have been doing my Company advertisement before the date of my application decision i have got proofs but i am confused how to link my appeal with my partner caus she don`t have appeal right and what step she have to take???
ANY help plzzzz i have very short time to take further step
Thnx in advance
