The documents I currently have are

2. My Bank statement ( no much fund)
3. Introduction letter from work
4. Work appointment letter
5.Company I D
6. Land documents with construction currently ongoing on site (worth 3.5milliom)

The reason am using my uncle as sponsor is to assist with his Bank statement and documents to back my application.

As a working adult your uncle can not sponsor you for visiting visa application to the UK, you go on holiday when you can afford it personally.

Yes you can use hotel reservation for visa application.

I have read here about people using hostel booking but i can't recall the outcome of the application.

Hello house,
Good work guys. Happy New month
I have few questions
I want to apply for visiting visa for me and my son, I want to be the primary applicant but have only worked for 8moths with the government

1) do I need my hubby consent letter?

2) do I need letter from my office?

3) i want to do hotel booking, how much do I need to have in my account before I can use hotel booking and apply

4) apart from my salary account ,can I add my personal saving business and money market account to my statement of account and what other documents can I add to it ?

5) should i print or add my hotel booking details to my application?

6) should i indicate I have family/ friend in UK but they are not giving me invitation letter because they have others they want to give that is why I want to do hotel booking

7) where can i book hotel and cancel later?


1. Yes you do.

2. Leave and employment letter

3. You need to do a budget of the whole trip that will help you as regards as cost of hotel and how much the whole trip will cost you.

4. Yes you can add all those documents and marriage certificate, family pictures etc.

5. That is a must.

6. Declare anybody you know in the UK even as they are not giving you an invitation letter

Oga sultek, please confirm how long it takes for CoS to be out on average once an employer applies for one.

I fulfilled the conditions required to practice my profession in the UK, paid for my license, applied for a job, got an offer, my employer applied for the COS and issued me the COS.

First of all, there is nothing like renewal with the UK visa, you apply like every other person like new application. Search the link online and filled out the application. Note, the info you supply mustn't contradict the content filled out by the agent. Better still, ask the agent to give you the print out or soft copy provided he has it.

Goodluck!

Usually about a month from when they apply. But in my case it took about 3 months to get my COS from when I got the job. About 2 months sorting issues on their side like references and other HR issues before they applied then another one month to get it after they applied.

Haa Marks and Spencer can be on the high side o. Anyways in Finsbury Park you get nice office gowns as low as 5 pounds, 10 pounds. I even bought a Calvin Klein gown for 15 pounds And in Liverpool street they resell stuff gotten from Marks and spencer at very low prices. Trust me these places are even cheaper than primark and m and s
