madream4life: Hello Nlanders, well done Justwise n Vicjustice, I greet u sirs, more grease to ur elbows. Pl I have a quick question. I intend to apply for a UK visit visa in a few weeks I'll like to knw if in filling d application form, I need to indicate or declare dt I was refused visa for other country(s) dt I applied for visa.

NB; I actually applied for a US visa earlier in d year and was refused.

Thank u sirs!

Vicjustice: There is no advantage in hiding this information except if the reason for the US visa refusal has got something to do with a violation or a crime. But if the refusal is for failing to satisfy the visa officer, then it wouldn't affect your UK visa application. However if you lie about this, and they happen to find it out, you will be banned for 10 years,

Vicjustice: First of all, you need to prove that your marriage is one that is credible and that it's sustained (having a child does not represent a sustainable marriage): you need to satisfy the authority that you are not trying to by-pass the ban with your marriage.
Secondly, your ban remains, therefore, you are short of every right that should be given a spouse of a UK citizen: so, your wife needs to contact a solicitor and use her rights to plead your exclusion case.

idmanzik: Dear Justwise and Vicjustice,

I have been offered an all expense paid one week overseas trip by my firm and i have choosed to go to UK. Please how do i package my application considering my firm will be my sponsor? I earn just over 200k (don't have much in the account though), but could get the company's statement of account and any other documents required. I have only travelled outside Nigeria once...went to Dubai last December on hols.

Please what are my chances of getting a UK visa...assuming i package based on my firm being the sponsor.

Thanks

justwise:

If your marriage is genuine and you can prove that then you stand a chance of getting spouse visa even with the ban though they can still drag you around a bit by refusing and you end up in immigration tribunal.

It's important that you pay attention to a very small detail about the requirement leaving no room for refusal.

NuNu08: tnk you justwise..my marriage is genuine and i can prove it..i'l try my luck since there's still chance that my Visa can be approved

Vicjustice:
Your brother applied for a UK visa, and you are the one withdrawing the application?

Thanks Justwise & 3sha4lyf for the encouragement to re-apply.
