I'm pretty sure of that but don't take my word for it still go ahead and apply for transit visa so as to settle your mind.

Submit your copy of your Mexican visa, proof of accommodation both in Mexico and Belize and flight ticket

I still don't know what is holiday booking. Also, I don't know if one is allowed to select an appointment date or the computer selects one for me. I don't want an appointment date too far away. Also must I purchase my flight ticket or will just an airline reservation be okay?

ekpotek:


Ethiopian Airline will take you Mexico from Lagos via Addis. You do not need transit through the UK.

I'm not sure if you read reply to your questions

No you don't have to, your marriage certificate will support you on that

Ok. Thank you

Please advise .

I am inviting My sister and her 3 young children to UK. for my child's baptism of which she will also be a God parent. They will also use that opportunity to visit places of interest around London.

They plan to visit for 10 days

My question is , can I state that they will be staying with us? My husband and I and our 20 month old live in a 3 bedroom house. So we have a spare room.

I don't know if ECO will class that as sufficient accommodation for the duration of their stay or if they should kuku book hotel reservation. I want to be sure we are doing the right thing.

It appears like you want to squeeze 4 people in a spare room ? How big is this spare room or is it a box room ? I think its best you kuku go down the hotel reservation route (for the purpose of application). If you know what am saying ?

Haha. I so enjoy your sense of humour.

Not intending to squeeze them into a box room oo. Room is big enough . And my sons room is quite big with just a baby cot.

As you rightly said. We will go down the hotel reservation route. I no fit shout !

Please has anyone used the VI application center recently? I just heard that they are not receiving applications anymore. How true is this ?

I've booked an appointment for next week monday. I also made enquiries there yesterday and i wasn't told anything, about them not receiving applications anymore.

justwise:



1. Explain it on the form and show evidence of the business dealings..e.g receipts and contract papers

2. This is the same as number 1 question

3. Budget this trip within two months of your salaries(500K) to give yourself a better chance of getting a visa, focus on cost of flight, accommodation, transport within the UK and feeding. Shopping shouldn't be part of this.

Locate a hotel close to your exam centre to reduce cost of transport, look for budget hotels(travelodge, premier Inn, and many others) some go as low as £30-40 per night.

Get the actual cost of flight, hotel, transport cost within the city you will be staying to help you come up with an accurate budget. If you guessed these figures the ECO will know because its pretty easy to find out online.

This will help you answer question about how much the trip will cost you.

Thank you vry much for your time.
1) No evidence whatsoever for the business deals.The business is a local one.its all about we receive phone calls to supply probably a truck of bags of maize to a local dealer and then we collect our money after few weeks.
so thats my challenges..OR should i just i state that the money is for debt payment?.

Okay thank you

With simple and clear documents
show money in and out of your bank account and how it ties in with the company.

Claiming directorship without proving financial ties will not fly.

He needs to send you proof of accommodation then you give it a try but your salary could be an issue because that is your ties to Nigeria

But if I go and spend my 8 days , can I go later after like 4 or 5 months to spend 2 weekso before the visa expires......

Will that be better. ......cause I don't want any thing that will cause problems when I want to renew.

Staying for two weeks instead of 8 days shouldn't be an issue, same for making a second and even third trips so long as it's multiple entry and travel date within visa validity.

The problem with that is the fact that you are given a visa based on the budget of 8days and not 2week. Overstaying by 1 or two days shouldn't be an issue but stretching it could end up badly

You can because you will be given a multiple entry visa though that does not mean that you will not be stopped sometimes for random questions.
