Sir P!:
@donxavier depends on how soon you wanna use the visa cos youll be given 3months or so, so if you do it here and dont use it you waste the money

Sir P!:
@donxavier I just learnt that wakanow does the dubai visa, so when you get to the uk you can always get it done through them online.
If I may ask are you going to dubai for just shopping or sightseeing , tours e.t.c ?

Thank for the info, I understand from what you said that it is not a must that I have to include her details. Please correct me if am wrong. What if am ask the purpose of my visit, how do I go about it. Thanks a lot, I do appreciate.

naiko: [b][/b] @ strangbest, no one will ask you the purpose of your visit.-your current reason is VACATION.

tinapame: @Vicjustice. Thank you very much for your response. First, it is not the previous person that invited me, the previous person intends relocating back to Nigeria soonest,he is in London, also the person inviting me second time is also in London. Secondly, Yes i was granted multiple entry visa for 6 months and i traveled for three weeks and came back, I am a government worker with one of the federal institutions and have all my documents ready. Thirdly, I am going on my annual leave in September which i had to spread within the year and that is the same purpose that i traveled for in March this year. If my answers to you are okay kindly get back to me here thank you very much.

Vicjustice:
From your explanations, it looks good for you, I don't see why your application will not be approved. There would be no problem if a different person invites you, the ECO can definitely see that you're not an immigration risk.

luckyusa: An honest story, in jan 2004 i applied for a ukvisa with a different name and date of birth but i was refused because of the money in the bank account so again in December 2004 i applied again with another passport name and date of birth but l was refused because based on the visa officer they requested for more document from the person i claim to be my uncle to prove our relationship and that he has a proper accommodation for me to stay and i was given a right to appeal the decision or reapply providing the needed document but l refuse to appeal or reapply because i do not even know the person that l claim to be my uncle so it was impossible to get more document from the guy that sold them to me and this happen before the finger uk visa application policy
But in 2010 after staying in Nigeria and completed my degree program i got a scholarship to study in the usa and apply for a new passport with my real identity and date of birth and l applied for a usa student visa, l got the visa and travel to the usa and am currently studying in the usa as a scholarship student but my problem is now ,my university is organizing a tour program for master program student in my group to London and l have to apply for a ukvisa but l want to confirm if the uk embassy can detect my pervious application on the different name and date of birth
Am confused because my previous multi application was not detected or refused because of different identity in 2004 but insufficient documentation and lack of fund
l know l was mislead to getting all those multi passport on different names because when l apply with my real identity and true date of birth for the usa visa in 2010 and l attended the interview was granted the usa student visa with the visa office asking only 3 question and my solid advice to fellow Nigerians is that do not use fake document or stolen identity to apply for visa .this will have great negative impact in the future ... felt sad and depressed now because of great error of the past ..l need advice on what to do and please note l have never given my finger print at any uk visa centre in the past ..no matter your advice am still in the position to thank God that l stayed in Nigeria to complete my bachelor degree because my friend did the same stuff in 2004 and got the ukvisa on the third attempt with a different name but two month ago after 8 years he was arrested working in the uk without proper document and was deported back to Nigeria .he is now in Lagos with no bachelor degree ..l pray GOD show us the truth in life and we never make this ugly mistake resulting in a regretted life ......thank you and you honest advice will be appreciated.

solomonwis:

@Vicjustice,just out of curiosity...wouldn't they question the that she concealed the fact that she has a relative other than the one that invited her somewhere in London at the point of her initial application?

Vicjustice: I have to disagree with this post because, that is the most frequent question that immigration officers like to ask anyone who they wish to question

Vicjustice:

Please can you advise me from your own perspective, I ll very much appreciate that. Thank you

pls help o..vicjustice n co

Vicjustice:
Change of sur-name (on marital ground) is not a thing of necessity in western cultures, but in Nigeria, it is something extremely important, and Visa Officers know this.
I suggest you get that sorted, this is extremely important because, I can't see how a visa officer will find it credible in that an African woman does not bear her husband's surname.
I'm not in Nigeria, I'm not the right person to suggest any newspaper or something like that
