The visa application referred to was received in the Visa Office, Dublin on 18 March 2008. It was refused on 2 April 2008 for a number of reasons:
1. There was insufficient documentation submitted in support of the application.
2. There was no evidence of finances shown.
3. There was no evidence shown of a relationship being in existence prior to the visa application/marriage. The applicant lodged an appeal but the decision of the Visa Officer was upheld by the Appeals Officer on 13 May 2008.
The only option available to the applicant now is to make a fresh application.
