Good morning house,please I need a lot of advice on UK visa application. I intend traveling with my husband and daughter by July, I have no traveling experience but my husband does ( been to the UK and Sweden). My husband runs a registered limited company with his brothers and he won't be using funds from the business for the trip.
He has his savings account and transactions are done on a daily basis cos he does other side business(not registered). And has a percentage of goods from the company which he sells personally as d largest shareholder. My question is
1. Does he have to provide receipts for the goods he sells personally as proof of funds in his account and the contract agreement?
2. Does he have to present personal tax clearance card or the tax clearance card for the business( but he isn't going to submit business account statements since he isn't the sole signatory)
Please need help because I have been reading about people getting rejected cos they can't explain their income

Thanks justwise, really right about u can't predict until you get Ur visa, finally got a msg from Teleperformance yday after what I got from the embassy on Thursday. We were all given visas. Thanks again.

justwise:


That will be an issue because he will not be able to support his application with any financial document as the source.

I submitted on the 29th March, and was assessed with a decision on the 6th May. kindly advise what could've been amended on this application. Also will like to know how long for me to reapply again.
See attachments.

Hi Justwise and Vicjustice. I have just been refused a visa on the following:

Please guide me as to how to reapply. I want to reapply on Thursday and book my appointment for Friday.
For the joint account. I have runned that account since 2011. The same account I used for my tier 4 visa application in 2011 and it has been functional since then. I put my savings in that account because it is not easily accessible and I find that I spend less on that account. I submitted two account statements. One that had my salary with a balance of 99,000 and the this joint account. Am I not allowed to hold my savings anywhere I please? They also spoke on assets and no dependant, can I show them my car documents and my newly renewed tenancy agreement. If that can convince them that I ain't going nowhere. It's quite frustrating. Pls guide me through my next application pls

He has receipts of sales he does personally which is stated in the contract that he is entitled to a certain number of goods every month for some period of years. But the receipts are still has the company's name on it . What else can he do to show the money is actually his aside the receipts?

D motive of d travel is that am going to buy stuffs I would sell here in naija, also I have no relatives dere
What kind of visa shud I go for?

Vicjustice:

What is your occupation, i mean, explain your sources of income

Vicjustice:
You would be refused as it is not deemed reasonable for an adult who is not capable for self sponsorship to travel as a tourist.

I cannot be refused in Jesus Name...

Vicjustice:

Jesus has no business in visa issue, He is not partial, therefore, it is in His interest to allow the rules and regulations to play their course.

legendsmother:
@justwise no am traveling alone as I said am d one who is interested in buying things from the UK to sell here in naija. Am a final year student of UNIPORT so I don't have a job yet but I do have a savings acct for my small small coins

@Vicjustice
Great tips. As much as I want to agree with you. I'd like to say that it really does not apply. Several people have budgeted over 5 times what they earn and still get it. I feel like it might have a little more to do with the officers state of mind cos it's so freaking ridiculous what these guys say to refuse you. How can you be asking me for assets when I havent even worked for over two years. How can you be asking for home tie when I have a job and they know how hard it is to lay your hands on a job in Nigeria. How can they be questioning how much I want to spend when my account balance clearly shows that I can afford it. Everybody knows that you can get good things when you travel. There is really no cast in stone method when it comes to refusal. Just be try your best to convince them and you shall get your visa. it is very unjust and I feel like there should be some form of government intervention. You can't keep giving absurd reasons why Nigerians shouldn't travel because you want to collect visa money from us. It's really unfair. There should be a standard. Enough said

your greatest undoing was your cancelled hotel reservation.

that's the main reason why you got refused. all the added reasons in the refusal letter were just 'topup'.

even if you earned 1m with 10m bank statement, you would still have been refused as a result of the ECO's inability to confirm your hotel reservation.
