"Overturned Visit Visa: Timeline of a Successful Pre-Action Protocol Challenge"

A client’s UK visit visa refusal was overturned after we identified clear Home Office errors and issued a strong Pre-Action Protocol (PAP) challenge. Key points from the case: • Initial refusal: ECO misread and miscalculated bank figures and ignored vital supporting documents. • Review & evidence gathering: We reviewed the refusal line-by-line, gathered the original bank statements, transaction ledgers, correspondence and a corrected cover letter, and documented every factual error. • PAP letter: A focused, professional PAP set out the legal and factual errors, attached corrected evidence, and explained why the decision was unlawful. • Outcome: The Home Office withdrew the refusal after reviewing the PAP and the corrected evidence — the application was re-assessed and approved. • Lessons & tips: always keep originals, clearly label financial documents, prepare a concise cover letter, and seek legal review before re-applying. A precise PAP can stop flawed decisions from creating long-term damage to future applications.
