Hi, this is my first post here but I'd be grateful for advice on my current situation.
For context, I am British (caucasian) married to a SC (Chinese). We've been in a relationship since 2013 and married since June 2018. We both have Bachelor's degrees and are currently studying for postgraduate degrees in the UK.
My husband is a government scholar, and was recalled to SG in mid-March by his scholarship agency. We arrived in SG on the 17th of March, applied for LTVP straight away, and got a notification of rejection on the 30th of March, with no reason given for the rejection. My husband contacted his MP, who sent a letter to ICA on the 5th of April asking them to reconsider, but we haven't heard anything from ICA. We've asked for help from his scholarship agency, but sadly they've not offered us any concrete help.
Does anyone have any experience of appealing an LTVP rejection decision directly with ICA? There doesn't seem to be any official appeal form, so how does one go about the appeal?
My Visit Pass expires in mid-June and we doubt we'll be able to return to the UK by then, which leaves us in a difficult position if I don't get LTVP.
I'd be grateful for any constructive advice. Thanks in advance!
