Thanks again Lexusgs430, I think I'll just wait for sometime as you suggested by then I'll have like 1m which is reasonable I guess.
Thanks for your time.....its much appreciated .

It's very reasonable, use the intervening period to organize and collate all documents.
NB: Remember monetary trail and not lodgement.

The end balance of your account pre-deposit would determine.
If you have 21million in your account prior, it would not look like cash lodgement, but if you are hoping that the deposit should form part of your financial balance, with no cash trail, it would look as described.

Thanks for the reply, i have 700k in my account, want to deposit 150k to make it 850k balance so that if I say I'll spend 400k in my 7 days trip the ECO won't question me spending all my saving, I'll have like 450k balance afterr my trip.

Thanks a lot justwise, but my husband wants to give me 500 to support myself, how do I go about it? And how will it not look like money lodgement. Thanks again.

Don't be in a hurry, its just a holiday, not medical treatment or conference, build up your bank balance from now to Oct-Nov, that will increase your chances...keep your salary account for salary only...

Thanks for your reply Justwise ,but I'll be having 600 and I don't want to spend more than 400 , I'm getting only 3 weeks leave and I intend staying for 10 days.
How much do you think will be okay for this trip?
Nothing extravagant oo.
Thanks
Your job and occupations are ok, but these sort of compilations by which you intend to accumulate the fund for the travel puts you in the position of disqualification.

Hello gurus
I will like to confirm something for a good friend of mine.He's being helping a British friend he met online with African cultural studies ,this british friend would be in Nigeria in October for a week and would like to invite him also to UK (not for dating), the British already made all necessary inquiry with the embassy about inviting and sponsoring him,she already has all the required docs but my friend has got no job to prove as home ties.The embassy said all the British docs are OK to sponsor him,
Can it be that the embassy is deceiving the British despite knowing that my friend got no home ties?
thanks .

Two separate things.
What are the papers required to invite someone to UK? This gives a list.
Having the correct papers does NOT guarantee a visa!
So no one is trying to decieve anyone, the person must apply and wait for decision.
In these cases ties to home and proof that the person will leave at the end of the visa are vital.

Hello all,
I have a question about travel history in the visa application. My mum got a two years multiple visa that was issued in November 2004 and was valid till November 2006, she travelled last in December 2004 and that was her last time till date. where it says have you ever been issued a visa for the UK in the last 10 years , what should be filled - a yes or a no? We filled a no. Is this correct?
Another question do we have to declare a passport that was issued over 10 years ago? We did not put the passport details that she used to travel over 10 years because I assumed the information required was restricted to 10 years ago. Is there any danger with this non declaration?

We have already submitted the application on line and her appointment is on Monday please advice ASAP.

Thanks a lot for your advice

The embassy told her my friend only needed international passport, since the British is sponsoring the trip. They also told her to come to the embassy with him to submit his app.

Then go with the information that they have asked for!

You said no? Your mum was issued visa in 2004 and you were asked if you have been issued visa before and you said no? You be lucky to escape 10years ban.

I doubt that, maybe they contacted an agent or immigration lawyer.

So if they contacted an agent or immigration lawyer the visa is 100% sure or it could be denial as well

No visa is 100% guaranteed, and nobody can promise you that.

Thank you. My question is what are the documents I will need to provide and steps to take in order to get a visa for a fully sponsored training? The company is willing to provide all documents requested from them.

To your questions:
1.The contract was agreed over email two years ago. So there is no paper contract.
2. My salary is based on volume of work done for a month. It is between 150-200k (company can provide records of payments).
3. I haven't paid any taxes before.
4. After the training, I will take over remote management of parts of the business on my return.
1) Then, there should be a printable page of the contract text.
2) Good salary range, enough to convince the visa officer.
3) That is a minus.
4) It is encouraging, but yet, with the shortage of tax compliance, it won't look good.
Tax compliance is the preferred means that the embassy checks your eligibility and the credibility of your employer: right now, it is questionable that a company that does not pay your tax is now intending to sponsor you to study abroad.

As for the documents, you might want to take your phone and ring the ambassador to enquire.

Thanks for your reply the question asked if any visa has been issued in the last 10 years. The visa was issued 11 years ago from now (2004) but was valid till 2006. If it was meant to be a yes, what do you advise now? Can we withdraw the application? Please advise
