The application referred to by the Deputy was received in the Visa Office, Dublin on 4th January, 2007. The decision of the Visa Officer to refuse this application was taken on 18th January, 2007. The application was refused because the Visa Officer was not satisfied, on the basis of the documentation supplied, that the applicant had demonstrated a sufficient obligation to return home following the visit. In addition there were inconsistencies in the information supplied by the applicant.

It is open to the applicant to appeal this decision; however to date, no appeal has been received. All appeals must be submitted within two months of the initial refusal decision.
