Emphasis on 'You intend'. Do you have any affiliation to this company ? As an employee, presumably, your tax structure would be on P.A.Y.E, so you do not tax clearance.

justwise:


As a business man you earn 150k monthly or it varies?

hello house
sorry for my question. I just don"t want to make any mistakes in my application.
Please does the total money from my savings and investment monthly mean the income (salary)minus the money spent on living expenses and money given to dependents and family?

justwise:


The section in bold is the main reason for the refusal, does your bank statement show N234,000 monthly salary?

refreshrate:


Submitting tomorrow sir, was thinking would it be ok to include a letter to the entry clearance manager stating the issues raised in the refusal and attaching copies of supporting documents all clipped together when sending the application?

justwise:

You can include selection of the receipts, if its not too much then add all.

Explain the Dom account issue just the way you did here.

Yes you have to mention your family members even if you are not staying with them, just state that you will not be stating with them.

@yeepa11 and other self employed people here
I’m self-employed and want to get some info from you. Please how much do you pay for tax? Do you pay yearly?
Also for your estimate monthly cost of living, did you add rent to it?

Hello House,

I applied last week Friday along with my hubby and 2 kids, and we all received this message this morning:

Your visa has now been processed and is ready for collection. We aim to return passports to the Visa Application Centre where you lodged your application within 2 working days.

Please what does this mean? Thanks so much!

congratulation ,your visa is granted... If you stay in lagos, go to teleperformance on monday(90% sure it is there),it will be there waiting for you. but if you stay outside i will advice you to wait till Tuesday morning(to be 100% sure its there)

yeepa11:

Yes, it is yearly payment,you pay the state tax and not the FIRS type.
Ask for their office in your area,if you are first payer,u might be ask to pay 3yrs but you can tell them you just start the business and plead to pay for this year alone.
I pay 5k into the bank yearly,some pple pay #2,500,it depend on your kind/size of business.the office might want to come to where ur shop is to value it...but most cases they are the lazy type.
But I will advise U pay 5k since you will be needing it for embassy as well.U will be giving a tax card,and Tax certificate
U alone can kno the cost of your living,but in terms of this application scenario you have to be calculative,so that your cost if living don't get heavy on ur monthly income.
I am also confused on what to write in that space....but since my monthly is approximately 150k...I am putting 30k..(just me &wife)finish.

opite:
Please I want clarification on savings and investment. Since We have to put in a figure, I only want to know if the savings stated means the total in the bank account or salary minus the money spent on living expenses and money given to dependents and family?

Please whats the exchange rate to use: 281 0r 290.

Good evening, I applied for visa 2 yrs ago and was denied visa on the grounds that I stated I don't have friends or family over there and I don't have a dependent in Nigeria. Also that they found some money in my account which they don't think will be for my use cause it was outside my salary and I didn't state any other source of income. So on this grounds, they said that I may not come back. To cut the long story short, I want to apply again this year with my younger sister for a tourist visa. And since it will be me and my sister, I want to use my dad as a sponsor. He has millions in his account,a company and land documents. My question is will that be enough to prove that I will come back? Will it favour me or will be against me since I am working and earn salary. Or should I use my own bank account and company which I used for my application last 2yrs and which is also sufficient? Also, how do I process my application, so they will know I'm traveling with my sister. Thanks a lot
