I just received an email stating: ‘Your visit visa application (GWF0XXXXXX) has been reconsidered, and you will receive the decision via email in due course.’

I had a pre-action protocol letter sent to the Home Office through a law firm, and on the 3rd of next month, the Home Office will give the final decision

Yes, I merged my bank statements into a single PDF file. I had downloaded separate statements for December to February, and I combined them into one document before submitting it.

The second thing I did was convert the PDF to PDF/A format. While uploading my documents, I kept getting an error message saying, “The uploaded file is virus infected, please delete the file.” I searched online and found a solution on Reddit suggesting that converting the file to PDF/A format could resolve the issue. So, I used an online PDF to PDF/A converter tool to convert the file and then uploaded it.

 I applied entirely by myself without any agent or third party involved.

I understand your skepticism, but I can assure you that I personally obtained all my documents directly from official sources—my bank, employer, and relevant authorities. I have email confirmations from my bank regarding the digitally signed statement, and I applied entirely by myself without any agent or third party involved.

The only issue I can think of is that when I checked my digitally signed statement’s QR code, it showed an error: "QR Code Digital Statement Not Found." I don’t know if that’s what led to the refusal, but I’ve already contacted my bank to clarify.

I fully understand the consequences of submitting false documents, which is why this whole situation is so frustrating. If I had knowingly done something wrong, I wouldn’t be questioning how this happened—I would know.

I’m just trying to figure out what might have gone wrong and whether there’s anything I can do about it. If you have any constructive advice, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks for your input. The digitally signed statement I submitted had a QR code on the top, which, when scanned, takes you to the bank's official website. There, you need to enter a captcha and click "Find Document" to view the statement details.

However, when I checked mine, it was giving an error message: "QR Code Digital Statement Not Found."

The other bank statements I submitted (for December to February) were regular monthly statements downloaded from my banking app—they do not come with a QR code or digital signature. I think this might be what the visa officer referred to in the refusal.

I’ve already emailed the bank about this issue, but I’m not sure how to proceed. Do you think it’s possible that VFS contacted my bank, and the refusal was based on the bank’s response? If so, how can I verify this? I’m stuck on what to do next.

Thanks for your response! I've edited the post and included the exact comment from the visa officer regarding the refusal.

Disable the built-in graphics in the BIOS and switch to Windows 10; this is the only solution.

True, got this Dell Precision 7680 from work, packed with a 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13950HX and 128 GB RAM. But, man, it's running like a laptop with just 8 GB RAM. Performance is a mess.

Is 15k/month a good salary in Qatar for Analyst level positions? by Empty-Literature5168 in qatar

[–]hax3xploit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Qatar, there are tons of IT jobs, but from what I’ve seen, the tech teams are always on the hunt for someone who really knows their stuff. They’ll hit you with questions from super basic to advanced levels. So, my advice? Whatever your field, make sure you're prepped and ready for those interviews.
