Hello Bryanna..It's a 5 years ban for misrepresentation, not 2 years. This ban virtually eliminates any chances of being approved for any other visa.
If you want to be absolutely sure that their previous applications were not headed towards misrepresentation bans then I suggest:
1. You order the case notes first before reapplying, AND later
2. Apply only for one parent first. Do not risk both applications.
I guess they were extremely lucky (and escaped from the 5-year bans) simply because they had submitted their original passports.
You can explain this in the invitation letter + their cover letters
I want to reiterate that proving your dad's self-employment will be quite a challenge. You and his CA will have to work twice as hard than normal cases to prove that your dad is genuinely self-employed + he earns what he claims to earn + he has solid reasons to return (property + any scheduled religious events, etc)
i would like to have some helpon below:-
- if i apply for only ONE Parent now , VO may think why we are going for only one parent ?? ..initially we went for both
- i think they did not give any BAN ,if they have given BAN , Do not VO suppose to mention on the first rejection ?
- i wanted to apply for NOTES , but someone told me that it will take some time
- And if i will take lot of time to reapply , the Genuine behaviour may not seem for that refusal reason, it may seem that we intentionally hide those reasons.
Please find the main content only of the Invitation letter i have made:- [ please comment if anything is to be changed ]
