My girlfriend has been denied entry into the country. 09:52 - Oct 18 with 15489 viewsBlindOptimism

My girlfriend is Taiwanese. She lives in Taiwan, and was visiting the country for the first time, for a holiday, and to see me. Her plane landed at 4:30pm on Wednesday. After 11 hours of almost silence, aside from being asked a couple of questions about her on the phone, I was informed she had been denied entry into the country. I asked what the reason for her denial was, and they told me they couldn’t say, only that they have “criteria” and she didn’t match it.

1. She has all her documentation, including Passport and a signed “invitation” letter from me inviting her to stay at my home during her trip.

2. We have proof of our entirety of our relationship, from the moment we met, years of communication and photos of us together from my trip to Taiwan to see her.

3. We have proof that she would be staying at my home – a four bedroom house with mortgage fully paid off.

4. We have proof of my finances and that I would be sponsoring her entire stay. I am employed with regular income. I have 6-figure savings.

5. Our stories will have fully corroborated, as her visit was entirely genuine and legitimate.

After a 14 hour flight here, she now has 48 hours to sit in a an immigration centre, alone, before another 14-hour flight home. I was able to speak to her on the phone briefly at around midnight, and all she could do was cry.

I am crippled with despair for her. She hasn’t done anything wrong. We met all the publicly available criteria that we were able to find. How can we comply if they can’t tell us the reason for her denial?

Poll: This post made me smile.

Nothing to add to the good advice already mentioned, just sympathy and best wishes.

We have given up on getting my brother in law a tourist visa.

The easiest way into the country now is via Ireland. Ireland is not a racist country and let's people in for holidays. Then you and your girlfriend can cross to the UK and probably walk in without even showing a passport . It's a wide open route for people smuggling - so presumably also is for people being victimized by Tory racist 'anti-immigration' policy too. You can both enjoy a nice holiday in Ireland before you take the ferry.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!
