What should I do if my Standard Visitor Visa application is refused?
If your application is refused please contact us immediately. Our Immigration Law Solicitors will carefully review the reason for your refusal and advise on the best course of action. In most cases, the first action we will take is to send UK Visas and Immigration a Letter Before Claim which will explain why you think the decision to refuse your application was wrong. In many cases, UK Visas and Immigration will reverse their refusal decision and grant your visa upon receipt of this letter.
Other routes available is to challenge the refusal on human rights grounds or apply for a Judicial Review of the decision.
