The second refusal I got within 10 days. Applying from here is like running into a wall. Think before you apply again from here. And my GCMS notes had the exact words and reasons from my first refusal. They didn’t have any issue with my program, academics, money etc. only issue was my husband’s job which they are predicting can be lost anytime due to Expats unstable and temporary status here. I was rejected because I applied for an SOWP for him alongwith my SP application. I don’t have any status here, just under his. So yes they refuse within a week too sometimes. Just know that you should not apply from here, those suggesting you don’t know only 19-20 year old expats from Middle East get it especially if their father is a businessman here. People like us who are here on a temporary status can’t.
