Hello All,
I am from India, my visa application for Tier 4 (General) Student Visa has been refused twice so far.
First time it was refused was due to the bank statement provided with the Application was not on the letter head of ICICI Bank bearing the logo and the name of the Bank along with Stamp and Signature.
There are currently 670,000 overseas students in the UK which are worth over £8 billion to the economy. 236,000 visas were issued in 2008-09 however the number of applications rejected in the same period was 115,000 and this in part is due to the UK Border Agency (UKBA) as they tighten their grip on bogus colleges.
It a was mere scary moment when today I saw my Visa Refusal letter that the Blue Dart Courier delivery man delivered at my doorstep.
