Link to this: Individually | In context

The application referred to by the Deputy was received in the Visa Office, Dublin on 3 October 2007. It was refused by the Visa Officer on 11 October 2007 for a number of reasons:

There was insufficient documentation submitted in support of the application

The application form was unsigned

Documents provided were not translated

Financial evidence provided was deemed insufficient or incomplete

No letter of invitation was submitted with the application

Obligations to return home were not deemed sufficient

It was the opinion of the Visa Officer that the applicant would not observe the conditions of the visa and overstay following the proposed visit.

The decision of the Visa Officer may be appealed within two months of the date of decision, in this case, before 11 December 2007. Guidelines on making an appeal can be found on the website of the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service at www.inis.gov.ie
