5ami77: Thanks for you quick response...at least i now know where to start and can move forward. I need to ensure my marriage is registered i have left this all in the hands of my husband, who i am aware is very busy with work, but we need to get this ball rolling. I have travelled near and far and seen very different cultures, eventhough i am a born and bred british (not english) woman, I am black. Yes I understand that unless I have my own business, it will be very difficult to survive (finding a job) as my sister in law herself has found it difficult to find work as a fellow Nigerian. My husband is self employed and works very hard to be successful in what he does. I am also very adaptable and do not take marriage lightly (with a view if fleeing if things get difficult). Once i confirm my marriage is registered what next? I tried to call the nigerian hig commission not much help, she just referred me to the website (something i must get used to huh..being fobbed off)?

Are there any British woman that have move from here to Nigeria, with not much experience of the life and culture, who can gve me advice or knowelege of your experience? I will find this very helpful although it will not influence my decision as for me it s all about being with my husband and moving forward with our lives.....

Thanks

Quite hard to adapt to Nigeria I tell you. No regular electricity in a hot tropical climate. Expensive cost of living. But you need to start a family. Try for 6-12 months. Keep England open as an option for you and your husband. Good luck.

Waleabimbola: Does a multiple-entry Schengen visa allow visiting other Schengen countries later, without going via the issuing country?
I was given a multiple entry visa in January by France embassy, I went there and came back after 5 days but I want to go to germany now in march, do I have to go through France again or should I just fly to Germany straight without getting to france?

You can buy Air France ticket and route it to any city they apply in Germany or Frankfurt then you can fly to Germany via Charles De Gaulle airport Paris, wait for some hours on transit hall and continue. That is all i can advice. I have done so before while going to Madrid Spain and it worked.

Re: A Comprehensive List Of The Documents Required For Visas by Antell95(m): 10:02am On Mar 02, 2013
Vicjustice: Its boring to hear people asking "what documents" that are required for this or for that visa, and i see that no matter how many individuals that are answered, there will continue to be many others who will ask the same question over and over and over again. It doesn't make much of a sense to ask this same question or to keep on answering it to everyone who asked it, so, i have decided to create this narrative list to answer the question conclusively.
Here are the documents that are required of visa applicants of every category.
This article is subject to modification and updates:

* Invitation letter or accommodation details from the country you intend to visit;
*(If on invitation by an individual,) a copy of the bio-data page of the passport of the person inviting you.
* Your national passport or travel document with at least 6 months to expiration;
* (If you are an alien resident in the country that you are applying from,) evidence of permission to remain in the country: ie, a residence permit or an appropriate long-term visa;
* Passport sized colour photographs, not more than 6 months old;
* (If employed,) a letter from your employer granting leave of absence from your job for a specified period. The letter should also say how long you have been employed by that employer, in what job(s) and should indicate when you are expected back at work;
* (If self-employed,) evidence of your business activities and financial standing;
* (If self employed or if applicable to you as an employee,) your tax clearance certificate to show your tax compliance level and also your income;
* (If a student,) a letter from your school stating what course you are on, its start and finish dates and the dates of the holiday period during which you intend to travel abroad;
Note: if you are not working you should include financial documents of the person who is supporting you; if someone else is paying for your trip, You would be expected to explain why you are being sponsored and to demonstrate how your sponsor will benefit from your trip.
* (If applicable,) evidence of any property you own in your home country (if applicable)
Note: the property is expected to represent anything that could be considered a tie; such property may not be an isolated land or building that are not deemed to be taking more of your responsibilities: it is different if you own (let's say) business property that requires your obligatory management;
* Details of any firm travel plans you have made ie itinerary:
Warning! Do not book a flight because, you will forfeit your money if your visa is refused. Itinerary does not mean flight ticket, it means travel plans which are, the preparations that you have put in place: such could be site seeing or tour guide arrangements;
* Bank statements showing up to six months transaction details, must show sources of income:
Warning! Avoid Money Lodgement, you will be refused without question.
* (If applicable,) evidence of any income from other sources e.g. friends, family, savings, property etc
* (If applicable and/or if the purpose of the trip has got something to do with family,) Evidence of family relationship and marital status ie Birth Certificate and/or Marriage or Civil Partnership Certificate, divorce certificate, death certificate (of spouse)
*(If applying to join a spouse,) Evidence of relationship and communications or correspondences with your spouse: ie telephone details; emails; posts or/and photos of both of you together.
* (If applying to join a spouse or family,) Birth certificate or Age Declaration document
* It is very important to be able to show Ties or Obligations to return to.
Note: Although, family or social ties and responsibilities are recommended, but logically, family ties aren't considered as strong as other ties because, there are vast cases of seekers involving in immigration fights to bring their family to join them, but yet, the magnitude of the family may be considered
* (If an ex-convict) The official record of any conviction(s), detailing the crime(s) you were convicted of and the sentence(s) you received
* The appropriate fee and 1 million dollars for Vicjustice
Note: You must provide original documents. Failure to submit original documents may mean your application is delayed or refused.
HARD DOCUMENTS are documents that carry Security Authentications; or Stamps; or Seals; or Signatures; or Apostiles, etc: (For example a Marriage Certificate), such documents must be submitted in their original states. Any other document that does not carry any of the mentioned authentication is allowed to be submitted in photocopy state: Your hard documents will be returned back to you in due ty.
