The bank statement printout has to be stamped by the bank to give it some credibility.

Tintas:
@justwise and ekpotek n others, if a one man business can’t pay himself a fair salary? Do you suggest the submission of both business account and personal account irrespective of their balances at the time of printing. Thanks

Yes you have to submit both

PLEASE I HAVE ASKED THIS QUESTION FOR DAYS NO ANSWER. ABEG I NEED AN ADVICE ON WHAT TO DO PLEASE......
Happy weekend my people!!!!!! Please I would like to know the kind of visa that is suitable for a day paid course and other corses with different dates but free coures that fall between 3weeks. Secondly I want to apply for 2years visa after I had gotten the first UK visa they gave me 6months which expired April this year and now I want to renew for 2years but they say I need to go for tuberculous test if I will be staying for more than 6months. My concern is this, if am going for a course which I will spend just three weeks and come back, do I still need to go for the test since am applying for 2 years.
Thirdly, is it wrong to tell the embassy that I will stay in my cousin's house for the period of the course.

Thanks for your usual coroperation.[/quote]

Yes, it was a 6 month tourist visa. My first application was denied because of my budget which was more than twice my income after tax and basic monthly expenditure. I had to modify my budget in the subsequent application and was granted visa..

I spent 8 days in the UK and in a lovely, neat, comfortable hostel throughout my stay.

My budget breakdown:

Flight (economy return) £520
Accommodation (@£15/night x 8nights) £120
Feeding at £10 per day £80
Transportation £50
Tourism £50
Miscellaneous £30
Total : £850 this is about 406,000 Naira.

NB
In my actual spending on feeding, I did not use up to £40 because I prepared my meals throughout my stay. The hostel has big kitchen, giant refrigerators where hostel guests store their food, dining area, computer room where you can study and a lounge where you watch TV and socialise.

Hello E_Family, I want to apply for uk tourist visa in Jan for a 6 day vacation alone. Married with 4kids. Have a house and 2cars. I work in one of the financial institutions. I have travel history to SA, over 5times in the last two years. My take home is 570k monthly. Because of an ongoing project, my account has always been on 0 before now but since September , I have been leaving 250k from my salary untouched so by Jan I should have 1.25m. Will the four month account statement surface for me? or must it be 6months.?. please check below my proposed frugal expenditure
1. Return ticket 250k. (£537)
2. Hostel for 6 Days@£28 (£168)
3. Food(B,L,D)@23.50. (£141)
4. Attractions/tourism@15/day. (£105)
5. Transportation @£7/day. (£42)
6. Miscellaneous (£250)
Grand total. £1,250)

This is just about my one month salary. Do you guys in all honesty think that this will fly?

Your budget is reasonable then.

TB test is for immigration visa and not for non-immigration visa application which is where yours falls into.

Apply for standard visiting visa and select a sub-type which is academy but I doubt if you will be given 2yrs under that category.

You may have to go for 6months again or risk two yrs..who knows you might be given

Hello Gurus in the house.
Please I need your expert views/inputs as regards the history of my previous visa applications and the new one I am about making.
My first family visit application to go visit my husband who is resident in the UK (we got married traditionally plus church blessing in January 2014 but no court (legal) marriage until October 2018)was denied in January 2017 reason given as in the attached document. So in my first application I referred to my husband as my "unmarried" partner.
I made another application in August same year (2017) and got a similar response. I can't readily place my hand on the refusal letter for now but will upload when found.
Now I want to attempt it again but this time around with our baby girl of almost 8 months old.
Your kindly advise is needed on what I could have been doing wrongly in the past applications and how to avoid another refusal.
Our baby was born in the US and I know she does not require a visa to go to the UK so my other question is do I include her passport in my own application as accompanying or make an application for her as well.
Thank you

jennyhumphrey:
Am not a guru o but i think you should include his birth certificate and yours too to establish the relationship, a letter from either of your parents authorising you to take him along, let him include his statement of account apart from yours and include copies of your past visa. If it was me applying, I would renew first and apply for my brother thereafter because 10 years visa fee is not moin moin. All the best

.

I want to say a big thank to Jennyhumphrey, Justwise, ekpos and all the gurus in the house. I applied for my 10 years Visa and was given. Thank you all very much but my brother 6 month 1st time Visa was rejected. Please is there anything that I can do to reapply immediately for him as I really want to travel this December with him. Please this is his rejection letter and all advice will be appreciated as it helped me with mine.

Thanks so much Justwise.
My reasons for applying for 2 years is that I have planned courses to attend within the two years and also the visa application centre is far from where I stay and will not have to expose myself of risk and stress of travelling every 6months for visa renewal. PLEASE IS THE REASON OK OR ARE YOU INSISTING I APPLY FOR 6MONTHS.

PLEASE OOO I HAVE STARTED MY UK APPLICATION BUT WISH TO CONTINUE, I COULDNT BECAUSE THE THEY GAVE WENT TO MY OFFICIAL MAIL WHICH I CANNOT HAVE ASSESS TO WHEN AT HOME. PLEASE CAN SOMEONE SEND ME THE LINK ABEG OOOOOO

PLS I WILL APPRECIATE YOUR QUICK RESPONSE

Whatever link you are looking for it’s available with just a google search

It’s important to find out about your husband’s status in the U.K before making another application because his ILR status is in question.

When you are holding ILR you can leave the U.K for two years or more. Tell him to call Home Office to find out how to ratify his status
