However the applicants cannot undertake following activities under this category:

do specific paid work unrelated to their main job or area of expertise at home or sell merchandise, other than what’s allowed by their visa

extend this visa or switch to another visa

live in the UK for extended periods

get public funds

study for more than 30 days – studying can’t be the main reason for your visit

marry or give notice of marriage

family members must apply separately

If the applicants wish to do work that is not permitted under this category they may be able to come to the UK under the points-based system. The Applicants must provide a formal invitation to undertake the pre-arranged engagement, and show that the engagement relates to them.

There is no right of appeal against the refusal of a UK Visitor Visa application. However there is nothing to be worried about as the refusal can still be challenged by way of a Judicial Review in the Upper Tribunal of the Asylum and Immigration Chamber.

Judicial Review against refusal of visitors undertaking Permitted Paid Engagement application

An application for permission to apply for Judicial Review must be lodged in in the Upper Tribunal of the Asylum and Immigration Chamber within 90 days of the date of the refusal of the application. A pre-action protocol is served on the Entry Clearance Officer or the Home Office before initiating a Judicial Review application.

We have had a number of refusals of visit visa applications overturned just on the basis of serving Pre-action protocol letter and you may count on our experience in handling such matters.
