Any thougths on this?
Will appreciate some guidance please...
Thanks
Your budget is good. Total balance you should have depends. Rough estimate is x3 of your budget but some have gotten visa for Plab 2 with just x2. The more money the better. Most important thing is that your account is clean with no irregular expenses or incomes. If there are, explain in detail in a separate "explanation of finances" letter. Keep the application simple. Do not mention academies. All the best.

Good day,

I intend travelling to the UK with my wife and kid of 10 months for 7 days.

My wife owns her business which is duly registered in her maiden name.

We have been married for 6 years and intend making the trip as an honeymoon we have longed for.

I work in a bank and earn N5.3 mill per annum (over 9 years).
My salary account balance is low at the moment as I do transfer most of my funds to my wife and mum's account for savings as fixed deposit.
I intend transferring the deposit (3.5mill) upon maturity to my salary account and present to the embassy.
I hope this won't raise a red flag.

Definitely a red flag. You have simply liquidated your fixed deposit for visa application and you’re likely to be refused. You only need to support your bank account statement with your fixed deposit certificate and a letter of confirmation from your bank that the money will be avaliable to you at short notice. Then explain in a cover letter how you raised the fund for the fixed deposit.

UK visa is accessed on the current circumstances of the applicant. So you will be access on your own financial tie, and not your wife financial tie. Although your wife can sponsor you, still your own financial will still be accessed by the ECO.

Am sorry for responding late, I have been in transit and got to London last night. My son is just one so I stated that I will be babysitting him all the through the trip and he would accompany me wherever I go so no need for childcare, I also broke down his budget of 2200 pounds at 500 Naira to 1 pound, milk and cereal 50 pounds , toiletries and pampers 30 pounds, then 2’000 pounds for miscellaneous expenses for both of us. We also noted that a comfortable accommodation is to be provided by my uncle who gave us a letter of invitation. All the best in your application

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by stefanimay: 7:44am On Oct 09, 2018
@ekpotek Nd other gurus

1.,pls in the application,the part they ask for relatives i.e if I have other relatives,do I have to put my sister in law Nd father in law? Cause I don't even have their passport number or should I just put my mother in law which will cover for others cause they all live in same apartment.

2. For the letter i.e invitation Nd sponsorship letter signed by my husband..can it be scanned to me or it should be sent via DHL..I'm asking cause of the signature nd printing it out would make it look like photocopy Nd not original...

Pls it's my first application,I have no idea be I need an answer...Thanks

Is it possible for a dependant to arrive the UK before the main applicant. Will there be a challenge at the POE

Also if one patent is traveling with a child ( less than 2years old) what are the likely questions he would be ask at POE and what documents does he need to show.

Thanks!!!

Good morning guys. I have been trying to make payment for my visa application for days now. I keep getting an error message from Worldpay. Can someone in the UK help in the payment? Or is the payment website down worldwide?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Tbabeey: 11:23am On Oct 09, 2018
Please i need advice. I'm so confused, I dont know if this is the right thread to post this. Im applying for a tier 2 visa as i already have an employer in the uk. However, i want my mum to come along so she can help out with my son for the first 2months. She has never travelled before. If she applies for a visit visa, i dont know how to meet up with the requirements since i dont live in the united kingdom at the moment. Please how do i go about this?

Your account balance is way too low considering your present balance, ur budget and dependants , how much is gonna be left in ur account after spending 650 from 800, what are you gonna fall back on ? My advise for you is to wait till ur able to save like 1.6m ... have like 3 times the amount ur planning to spend in ur account and your gonna smile at the end . No lodgement pls.

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Juliansamuel: 4:35pm On Oct 09, 2018
Hello guys, Pls I'm here again.

I have a permanent job with all the necessary documents and statements to back it up.

I also have a side business that I do which is important for me to include in application because that's where 70% of my savings come from.

I have a current account that shows my salary
I also have a savings account that I transfer my salary to and any money I make from my business which is where the money for my vacation is coming out from.

I have CAC registration for my business.
Someone mentioned here that if you have registered your business but do not have tax clearance, then there's no point to submit the CAC registration at all.
How true is that and won't it affect the application even after explaining it in the cover letter.

I'll await your responses. Thank you.
