I sincerely apologise for my late reply...Sequel to our discussion on how i got my visa .....

I had a good personal account of above 20mil and a company's account above 20mil with a solid turn over...

Above all,i personally did a hotel reservation by myself and 2235usd was removed from my intl credit card ,but there's a cancellation policy which i v adhered to.


No matter how good or fat your bank accounts may be,without a confirmed hotel reservation ,pls forget getting the visa.

Like i rightly said,3months mutiple visas were issued to us(family of 3).
Thank you all and God bless .

Do not use an agent for hotel booking ...You can do it!!!

How many days cancellation did they give you because I noticed that booking hotel or hostels in France using booking.com requires that you pay after 2 days of your reservation?

No one can assure of you of visa except the visa/consular officer handling your application. My answer to your question was based on my experience.

No....just submission of documents. Ensure you have all that is required as stated on the checklist. Don't forget your birth certificate. You'll need 2 colored photocopies of your passport and 2 white background passport photos (a specific size/format). I'll suggest you do these at VFS.

Bonne Chance!

They said they are not convinced that you are going back to your country after your stay in their country.
Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by Nowayo4Real: 3:07am On Jun 27, 2018
Sorry for the denial brother

What type of visa did you apply for?
Is it study or tourist visa?

Not necessarily family if you are not married. Your job that is if you are well paid and have worked there for years. Another is landed property or investment. While student usually use their exam timetable that is if that student is about to graduate.

Above all is by his grace because you might have all but they will still find one excuse simply because they want you to reapply or because they don't want to give you.

You can reapply if you have a strong reason because france appeal takes time.

Hi Sansha is COC certificate of competency, or certificate of clearance and what body issues it? Also please did you get any form of certificate from the school to assist with your visa application ? Who else got a form of certificate from the school to aid visa application and is this compulsory, I read on a thread it is.

yes, it is a new application therefore you will submit everything afresh and include new documents if you have any. you will also make another payment that is a fresh payment for the new application. may be you should state what you submitted earlier so that other people can view it for you.

There should be cover letter explaining your purpose of visit, your duration of stay, what you do and what you earn and also introduction letter from your place of work.

Also, I understand that you apply for tourist visa but the invitation letter there is from who?

Also these people don't always like it when someone is using sponsor for tourist visa unless the person is your close relation you bear the same surname with.

Around 45K plus to be paid in cash....you also have the optional payment for courier services. Price ranges from 2700 to 4500 depending on your state of residence.

#NB: This charge is for long-stay visa.
