The application referred to by the Deputy was received in the Visa Office on 4 December 2007. It was refused by the Visa Officer on 19 December 2007 for a number of reasons:
1. There was insufficient documentation submitted in support of the application
2. There was no evidence of finances shown
3. There was no clear link to the reference shown
4. There were apparent contradictions in the information provided by the applicant (Inconsistencies)
5. The Visa Officer was not satisfied as to the relevance of English to employment.
The applicant lodged an appeal but the decision of the Visa Officer was upheld by the Appeals Officer on 28 January, 2008. The only option available to the applicant now is to make a fresh application.
