The process of obtaining a visa to the UK without refusals can be difficult if you are not aware of all the nuances. First, you need to know what documents must be submitted. The most important thing is to collect the most complete package of documents and fill out the visa application correctly. There is no interview in the British Embassy. All documents need to be translated into English.
After the documents are submitted to the embassy, you will receive a positive or negative response within 15 working days. A visa for Ukrainians to England can be issued for 6 months, 2 years, 5 years, and 10 years. For an additional fee, there is also an urgent review process wherein you will be notified within 5 working days. For the result to be positive, you need to familiarize yourself with several different reasons that may cause a refusal.
The following are common reasons for being denied a visa to the UK:
- False or untruthful data. We would urge you to pay attention to this item and we suggest that you do no provide false information about yourself or your relatives, as well as not to providing fictitious documents. Otherwise, you could be banned from submitting and application for 10 years.
- Lack of visa history. It is important to have a history of travel (and visas attached to your passport) abroad before applying for a visa to the UK.
- Relatives who live in the UK illegally.
- Lack of financial guarantees. It is particularly important to provide the embassy with documents proving monthly income, as well as providing a certificate about the amount of money in your account. Furthermore, a particularly important document is proof of the movement of funds for the last 6 months. If any of these documents are not available, you need to look for options that will improve your situation, not the other way around.
- No attachment to the homeland. Family, children, immovable property, assets, business are the things that will play an important role in obtaining a visa. Without these, the authorities will view you as a potential illegal immigrant.
These are the most common reasons for visa denial, but each situation is different and is considered individually.
In case of a denied visa application, you will receive notification to the email address you specified in the application. The document will identify the main reasons why the embassy decided to deny your application.
