What to do if your visa was refused and passport held by UKVI - inspired by recent Mail article

A recent Daily Mail article here https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6196899/Couple-face-torn-apart-chef-facing-deportation-technicality.html told how a South African husband was refused Spouse visa extension (after initial 2.5 years). The reason was quite common: English language requirement which has to be at a higher A2 level. The South African gentleman had no idea the rules were changed in 2017. So, if your visa has been refused, what’s next? #1 Don’t panic, you won’t be “deported”. A term ‘deportation' is overused by the media completely out of context. Deportation is a legal term for a process used to remove foreign criminals. It is not used to split the law-abiding hard-working families because of a technical mistake in the visa application. #2 Don’t be scared of the letter telling you to leave the UK.   It is a standard letter that comes with all refusals that sounds scary “You now must make arrangements to leave the country”.It is computer-generated.

Shaocheng applied for a Schengen visa from the French Consulate: Multi Travel Visas is an excellent company that can help you get a visa very quickly. The service is very efficient. Seb answered very patiently and quickly. It is a good company I would definitely recommend to others. Here is a copy of Google review, which can also be found here:  https://goo.gl/maps/zUNAEZcMGaM2 It is possible to obtain a French Schengen visa within 3-4 working days from the date of appointment for most nationals, such as South African, Thai, Filipino, Russian, Indian, Chinese and most others. We can also assist with the German and Portuguese Schengen visas. The good thing about applying through French Embassy is that they tend to issuer longer, multiple-entry, visas. Although you have to go through a very stringent process of application, you may have a visa lasting for several years.

Shaoda  applied for a Schengen visa: Excellent. Received Schengen (France) visa in less than 2 weeks, much faster than the normal route. Sebastian guided me through the application. He and the people there are friendly, professional and experienced, explained everything clearly and checked my documents at least twice. They were happy to help whenever I had questions during the process.

10 visa options for South Africans to live and work in the UK

#1 Ancestral visa. You need to have a grandparent who was born in the UK. This visa is or 5 years and allows working in the UK including working for yourself. There is no minimum amount of savings or income you need to have/earn, and generally, it is a very flexible option that leads to settlement after 5 years. #2 British Citizenship for those born before 1983 to a British mother. Nationals of the Commonwealth countries tend to have the highest chances under this route. Before 1983 women couldn't pass their British nationality to their children born outside the UK (only men could). In 1983 this unfair rule was brought inline with the modern times. Those who were born before 1983 can now consider the option to claim British Citizenship (and therefore, a proper UK passport) but only if you meet all the requirements. In short, if this is your situation, you should be eligible for Citizenship if you had qualified back then (if we imagine that women could pass nationality).
