Confusing 'Appeal' with 'Review': An appeal challenges the decision; a review might look at how the decision was reached.
Not confirming *why* you are appealing: You must state your grounds for disagreement clearly on the form.
Assuming it goes straight to the Minister again: The appeal moves beyond the initial ministerial decision.
Filing without the original refusal letter: This often leads to immediate administrative rejection.
