Firstly, I got to know about the course from this site www.mastersportal.com. I applied, passed their Skype interview, and was accepted for admission.

I contacted Campus France, who gave me the checklist of documents that I would need to provide for visa consideration.

I gathered all the documents as specified in the checklist, went for campus France interview, after that, I proceeded to VFS for submission. Unfortunately, I couldn't submit it the same day because I went with 6months SOA which I was asked to go back and bring that of 3months.

For insurance, the start date must be the intended date of your travel.
SOA must be 3months. If your working, get your employment letter attested by Chamber of Commerce, and also a recommendation letter from your company.

For flight, book in the morning of your interview or a day before.

Accommodation, (hmmmmmm, sign of relief), although my school made it simple, but what you should know is that, the earlier you start, the better if your school can't assist.

Lastly, your SOA must show a proof of at least €615/month for the whole period of your study.

Above all, Pray Until Something Happen (PUSH).

I think this helps. Should you have further or specific question, please do not hesitate to bring it forward here for the Gurus in the house to assist.

Je nous souhaite tout le meilleur.

I add health insurance - AIICO. Moreover, I suspect something regarding my case because I saw about 5persons refuse yesterday and we relate together.

There own reasons is slightly different from mine.
Some they thick like 4reasons plus that are "justification for the purpose was not reliable".

Is these statement really means the same thing was "not reliable" and "not provided"

Hello Boss,
Do I need to submit my passport while appeal for France refusal or just appeal letter. Thanks for quick reply!

Cyberknight:


No need to submit your passport. Just your appeal. Again, the letter you received should give you details about the process to follow.

Before appealing, try to review your application and determine whether you can address the reason for which the visa was denied in a fresh application instead of appealing, because appeals take time.

If you were denied based on Reason 8, provide details of your "rootedness", i.e ties to Nigeria in the form of family, employment or business, property, etc. Mention any travel history you have.

If it was based on Reason 9, which is usually vaguer, then you have to try and provide a convincing argument why you want to undertake the trip. If for tourism, why France, where else have you gone before, have you done your homework about where you want to visit and why. Provide detailed itineraries to show you've researched. If for business/conference, why would this trip be of benefit to your business/professional career taking into account its cost? If you had a contact person in France, were they reachable, for instance? And so on.

Keep it as concise as possible, use bullets to set out your points individually, etc. And above all, if this appeal is important to you, ensure you pay for quality translation. Your appeal is going to the home country, and will not be handled at the embassy here where one can assume English is readily understood.

Don't get some student to translate for you; I've seen many hopeless samples of gibberish they produce. For instance, my French is very good, but I would never attempt to translate serious documentation into French; I can only do so into English. That's why translation is a skilled profession, as those who have to deal with foreign bureaucracies have learned. Don't let your properly drafted letter go to waste due to a poor translation.

Thank you everyone here is the letter sent to me written in French

Imustreturn:
don't pay for any hotel booking oo.. Its just for reservation that's all.. Don't pay shit until visa shows ooo.. They don't check flight or hotel..

Cyberknight:


This is not true and you're misleading people.

Understand that one of the requirements for obtaining a visa is proof of accommodation and the governments place a high premium on this which is why they ask for it in the first place.

Of course applications differ and some embassies may contact the person/establishment providing your accommodation, others may not. That doesn't mean the requirement is baseless.

For those using booking.com and having subsequent cancellations, understand that booking.com is simply an intermediary where you can get hotel accommodation more conveniently and usually cheaper than otherwise and nothing more than that.

Whenever you make a no-prepayment reservation through that platform, always call the hotel immediately and get them to confirm your booking separately from the booking.com platform. Some hotels will want to charge you a percentage of the accommodation fee for holding a reservation for you, others may not. This is 2018, international calls are not expensive and it makes no sense for someone who wants to take a trip abroad that will cost about 1,200 euros and above to find it difficult to pay 60 naira a minute for maybe a 10 to 15 minute phone call to arrange a hotel booking.

Even if you have to pay a deposit (which usually comes in the form of a hold on your credit card), surely 50 to 100 euros is not too much for one to be prepared to forfeit to ensure their visa application ticks all the boxes? Anyone who thinks that way is thinking small, and it makes no sense in the larger scheme of things.

Oga say what u know abeg..

Most embassies will tell u not to pay for hotel and flight bookings until your visa is out.

Don't tell me am misleading anyone..

Keep your long sermon is not important Sir.

Thank you.


I should pay for hotel or even flight and if the visa comes out otherwise what happens?
