Dear all,
Thank you all for your help during the visa process. I would not have been able to apply without your help.
The spouse visa (husband) is refused and the reasons are as follows:
You have failed to provide 6 months payslips.
We did send 6 months payslips covering from 1st of September 2017 till 28th of February. The payslips are printed on the last date of each month. For example the payslip printed on 28th of February will be for the month of February.
The September 2017 payslip was dated 30th September 2017 and the February payslip was dated 28th February 2018.
One might think its five months period (I am only guessing) but surely they should have ask as they had six different payslips.
The appeal right is given.
We did receive all the documents back including the photocopies which was worrying as we assumed the'd keep the photocopies.
Is there a quicker way to raise the issue that we have submitted the payslips?
Thank you in advance for your advice

If you sent 6 payslips, the first one dated 30 September and the final one dated 28 February, then that is a 6 month period.

If you definitely sent all 6 payslips and you met the financial requirements, then you can apply for admin review or appeal

Please scan in your refusal letter so we can see the exact wording of the refusal.

The immigration rules state that in respect of salaried employment in the UK, all of the following evidence must be provided:
(a) Payslips covering:
(i) a period of 6 months prior to the date of application if the person has been employed by their current employer for at least 6 months (and where paragraph 13(b) of this
Appendix does not apply); or
(ii) any period of salaried employment in the period of 12 months prior to the date of
application if the person has been employed by their current employer for less than 6
months (or at least 6 months but the person does not rely on paragraph 13(a) of this
Appendix), or in the financial year(s) relied upon by a self-employed person.
(b) A letter from the employer(s) who issued the payslips at paragraph 2(a) confirming:
(i) the person's employment and gross annual salary;
(ii) the length of their employment;
(iii) the period over which they have been or were paid the level of salary relied upon in
the application; and
(iv) the type of employment (permanent, fixed-term contract or agency).
(c) Personal bank statements corresponding to the same period(s) as the payslips at
paragraph 2(a), showing that the salary has been paid into an account in the name of
the person or in the name of the person and their partner jointly.

You have failed to provide the specified evidence to show you meent (a) above. These documents are specified in the Immigration Rules in APpendix FM-SE and must be provided. I therefore refuse your application under paragraph EC-P.1.1(d) of Appendix FM of the Immigration rules.

Thank you SanDiegogirl.

I also want to add that both the sponsor and the employer were interviewed there seems to be no objection in that. If the payslips were missing then why did they interview?
How do we prove that we sent all payslips? We'll attach copies with the complaint email but is that sufficient?

Jatpunjabi

As the right of appeal is given and looks like we can't ask for admin review. Is that correct? How do we get round this?

Could someone confirm that we can appeal against this decision and make a fresh application at the same time? Just exploring all the options

BE members can't really 'confirm' anything, we're just a community of volunteers. Best you have an appointment with a migration agent, just make sure they're experienced and have any required registrations/licenses - there's a lot of amateur cowboys out there.
