Who are you....

I am the father of the boy.

Vulcanheph:
and why should we care?

Who are you to talk for everyone?
As you do not talk for every member of Nairaland, you wold have been a little reasonable had you not used the pronoun "we"

"Dance and Curl", that is the Gaelic title on the front page of the Irish Examiner Newspaper, a National Newspaper on which my boy appearS today.
What is your take on this?

A friend of mine travelled to UK via Turkish airline on Saturday 12.20.called frm Turkey Istanbul a few hours later and said he was about boarding to UK.that was over 24 hours ago.his Nigerian number has been ringing but no response.could he have been detained at the POE ?his going fr a conference.

It would have been easier to use correct writing style.
Well, it is too early to speculate, many things could be the reasons for him not answering calls to his Nigerian number.

My senior brother is married to a Turk though a Secular Turk. He did a fake conversion to Islam and he and his wife neither attend Church or Mosque. Both are very secular and European in their approach to religion.

There is nothing like "false conversion" to Islam, Islam is not like Christianity where conversion is in the heart ♥, conversion in Islam means declaring that there is no God but Allah, and that Muhammed is his messenger. If your brother declared that, then he is a Muslim in principle.

The greatest financial lie of the 21st century is merchants refusing Nigerian cards because of credit card Fraud. Please stop it!
Firstly Nigerian cards are some of the hardest to fraid with because you need the OTP.
We should stop buying that nonsense already.
You have no idea the number of credit card Fraud that goes on in the US. Approximately 50% does that mean Ryannair and co stop accepting their cards ? Note: US accounts for 25 percent of credit card usage. How many times has someone used your debit card to make transactions? But this is daily occurrence in the US.

The comment that you replied to was posted in 2011, that was 8 years ago, and you are responding to it in 2019, 8 years after it was posted, You should have understood that the comment was made according to the situations in 2011, so, it is irrational to judge it according to 2019 developments.

@vicjustice. I am a first time UK visa applicant, I did my biometric enrolment on 15th of August. what amazed me is that the person that did my biometric told me to look up at the camera up and say my name and my date of birth. Is this how they did for everyone?
@epotek,@marylanderr, I applied for business visa 6 month, for training and my company is paying for the trip, i presented company bank statement for 6 month, introductory letter from company, and invitation letter from the company i want to visit for training. is this enough for visa approval?

Things are always evolving and changes are constantly being made according to developments.

Pls I want to travel with my wife and two kids for vacation to France, am the ceo of my company and am paying for my self, I think I have all the doc expect that I don't pay my self monthly salary, what is expected of me in this case. Thanks

Your question is too broad to be answered concisely.

OkaNaUbe:


Thanks. Pls if you can unquote my original question, I would be glad.

Could you specify your original question"?
I don't seem to get it.

OkaNaUbe:


Thanks for response. what do you then advise? Pls note my points.

Using an unregistered business or its associated bank account statement in support of your visa application will negatively impact the application because, in the perspective of a visa officer, this is corruption.
If you decide to register your company, then I recommend that you wait for one year before you apply for a visa with it.

@Vicjustice
@justwise
I have read this post about Bank statements but I have a regular job where I earn 6 figures basic salary but the quarterly commission is slightly bigger. I also have a side business, though, unregistered with CAC, has good balance (and good deposits/withdrawal history) and I have a dedicated bank account for that.

I want to vacation soon but if you check my expenses for the travel (lets leave country for now) based on my basic salary, it may not take care (I mean, if I earn a total of 1.6M a year and my trip costs N1.6- 2M) but since my side business isn't registered (more like one man business), Can I combine my regular job salary account and my private business account (also in my name)? Or what do I do?


Again, where I work, the parent company can pay our emoluments with one or two different subsidiary company names.

Although, I am thinking of registering my company soon but I don't know if recent registration is a pro or con to my visa application.

Pls reply.

@vicjustice,

Hello and thanks for all the tips. I have my F1 Visa interview for my PhD in USA next week. However I am a bit skeptical about my sponsorship because there seems to be no direct linkage in our family tree, but he has been sponsoring me since my undergrad due to some child bearing issues. He has accepted to see me through my academic years during my PhD and I have his bank statements and a cover letter from him affirming this sponsorship.

I’d appreciate any advice you can render to convince the visa officer that he’s truly ready to sponsor me.

We also don’t bear the same surname

When you said "he has been sponsoring me since my undergrad due to some child bearing issues", i suppose you meant that he had somehow been financially assisting you in during the course of your undergraduate period. If my presumption is correct, then in the perspective of a visa officer, that person who had been offering such financial assistance would not be in the same capacity as a sponsor for international scholarship.
I assume that you read the front page article in which i explained who is eligible for sponsorship... The question is, can you reasonably articulate what your "sponsor" stands to gain from sponsoring your education abroad?

Some people will begin to blame Trump for it

I didn't know that people haven't been consuming vegetables, so they have to "start consuming vegetables today"
