zoomzu: @ Justwise

Your kind advise is humbly solicited. I am about applying for a visiting visa for my wife and our daughter (1yr4months). I earn 100k per month and work with UNESCO affiliated organisation. My wife's sister resides in UK with her husband who has permanent visa to stay in UK, It is her brother In-Law what is inviting my wife and my daughter to celebrate Easter with them. My own role is just to provide their travel tickets, accommodation and feeding would be taken care of by their host. I have in/out flows of transaction in my account. I have a UK based friend that i partner with to buy cars loaded with electronics from UK, this year alone, i had bought 3 cars from UK with the Bill of Laden (BoL) my name and another one to come in before the year runs out. My wife is not working yet, I just want them visit UK for like 2-3 months and visit my friends in UK as well. Please, what is the chances of this application and I also want to ask if these BoLs can also be included in her application to show my business dealing in UK. What are the other documents needed for this application. I graciously await your advise.

Do you pay tax from your business earning?

@ Justwise, I do not understand the type of tax you're talking about. I do not have a registered company, it is just a partnership between me and my friend who reside in UK and double as a british citizen. We import our goods through Lagos port.

If you own a business you got to pay tax from your earnings, the embassy uses your tax clearance certificate to value your business and to judge if it could be used as tie to Nigeria.

If its not registered and you don't pay tax then don't mention it in your visa application.

Its a good thing to share with you.I will do just that.Will it be a good thing to employ the services of a lawyer agin for the new application cos i intend to copy and paste your last statemnt forward it to him for assistance.I am sharing this cos a lot of pple out there could be suffering the same fate as mine.it is a difficult one but sharing it seems to bring alot relieve after 3 years.Also my wife and baby are now British passport holder will be of any advantage.?

Believe me when i say this....you do not need a lawyer. My first tribunal appearance was done by me, wrote my appeal statement and post, after 3months i went to immigration tribunal to defend my appeal and i won.

Nobody can tell your story better than you. Lawyers will be happy for the case to drag on because the more the case goes on the more money they make.

pls i need someone with xperience to answer my question. i finished nysc last year and ever since then, i manage my dads company which he handed to me with a legal doc. the problem is that i made my firt time application today for uk family visiting visa. after i made the application,a friend told me i ought to have included my school cert and nysc cert in the documents i submitted to let them know im a graduate. pls is this necessary for visiting visa? now i am so unhappy cos there is no way i can include the documents again cos i already submitted. will i be rejected because of this?

Pls someone should answer my question .....

Your brother inlaw need to give her a lot of documents....prove of adequate accommodation for her and her kid, data page of his passport, payslip/bank statement and letter of invitation.

You need to attach your payslip/bank statement, family pictures, marriage certificate, your kids birth certificate, a consent letter from you (stating that your wife has your consent to take your kid to the UK).

If you met other requirements then school cert and NYSC does not matter.

Sure...that is all you can do

okeytimi: @ vicjustice,you sound too positive about your point,but take my word:you will surely be disappointed.
I have seen a worst case than mine and yet got tru. dont scared pple like me.just keep your negativity to your self

It is not in my interest to "scare" you with "negative" news, i was only being honest in telling you the gravity of the situation: it is better to tell you how grave a true situation is than to mislead you to think that all is well.

Like Justwise had answered, it is not necessary..., even an illiterate can apply for same category visa... But if however you feel you need to include the certificate, you can send it by registered post to them if you know your application reference number which you must enter on the supporting document.

Why do you have to write in such a rough manner?
By the way, your post doesn't seem to add up, British citizen denied a British passport, what's the story?

@jstwise & Vicjustice, Pls, What supporting documents can i use when applying for a UK business visa, I already have my invitation letter from the company, My company is a registered company since 2010,I want to go and inspect some goods in a UK company, As the director of my company, can i use my personal account instead of the companies account and my personal proprieties as evidence of my strong tie to Nigeria even though am going for a business? and which other documents can i also include in my application.

Pls i really need your advice on this matter, will really appreciate it.

Am also told i need to make hotel booking payment and attach it to documents i will submit even when i don't know if my visa will be issued, Is that adviceable?? Pls i need responses urgently pls.

Not only that,they will require your school records till age 10, and proof that you have not lived outside UK for more than 3 months in any given year for the first 10yrs of your life.since 1983,being born in d UK doesnt make you british automatically, so while u might have ur birth certificate,there are still other conditions to be met,one of them is what I just outlined,in my opinion,your application for a British passport is coming 14yrs late,cuz u will have to go to d schools you attended for the first 10yrs of ur life in UK to get the records,you will need a copy of your Red Book for the first 10yrs of ur life etc, If however you did not live in UK continuosly till age 10,then you are not British so you do not qualify for a British passport.

@vicjustice.my bro please accept my unresrved appology. you guys restored hope in me,prior to now i lost hope really but i want to push now.
Thank you for this platform. God bless you all and bless the work of your hand. cheers.

Experts in the House, to buttress further on my initial post directed to Justwise, I am planning to apply for Family Visiting Visa for my wife and our daughter. She's to go on the invitation of her brother in-law for Easter Holiday. I am to sponsor the trip while her brother in-law who own a permanent resident visa is to accommodate them.

Here is my status, I have been with organisation A since for some years where I earn 50k, march last year, I am seconded to Organisation B which is a baby to Organisation A but affiliated to UNESCO on a 2 year contract of 100k per month while I am still retain my responsibilities and position at Organisation A in addition to responsibilities at Organisation B. (1) I own a property with construction ongoing even my wife's name is on the Deed of assignment of the property though we were still dating then now we are married with a kid. (2) I have PFA Statement with Balance of like 200k. (3) Money comes in and out of my account often cos I does buying and selling, the balance as at today is around 120k. (4) I just bought a car of almost 900k about 3 months ago for family use. I have another 2 cars on ground for sale at the moment, I bought them from UK with their BoL's in my name and my Home address.

Now my question, going by what I have as my current account balance, I am sure it is not enough to present but on the issue of avoiding lump sum in my account, these cars could be sold any moment from now and the money goes into my account. What am I supposed to do in terms of an account to present, I do not have a registered coy. Please advise me on how to file this application, list of documents to be filed, they just want to go for Easter holiday before our daughter begin school, she's 1yr4months hold now.

I await your generous opinion.

Thank you all for wonderful job you are doing here and to Seun that provided the platform.
