Yes there is a biometric check and now applicants have to have a clear TB test at a nominated MD at an extortionate cost.
Not the British Justice System just tedious Immigration Control procedures! LOL

You still have to go to their offices with your paperwork and I think they do a biometric check. They won't question anything there as they just send the paperwork to some British Immigration officer sitting in an office somewhere. He will make a decision based on the paperwork, any error (or if he's having a bad day) he will just reject the application. You do not have the right to question the decision or make an appeal! Don't you just love the British justice system!

I can't imagine them letting a heavily pregnant woman in to the UK. You may stand a better chance once the child is born and has it's UK passport. If the problems your husband is having is to do with the financial requirements to bring a spouce to the UK to come on a visit visa is unlikely. The only person I know who's wife visited the UK was married to a guy living in the Philippines and they visited together. At one time it looked like the only option for a wife to visit was on a spouce visa, even to visit. You will have a big problem convincing immigration that you intend to leave your husband and return to the Philippines.

So you are saying people should not have the right to question a decision? That puts us on a very slippery slope, especially when some of their decisions are based on supposition and not fact.

I don't think you can challenge a tourist visa decision anymore and it's been so for a few years.
