Hello here

Jommy26:


Yes, paid monthly. Started the payment last year July. Paid up till January this year. Money always paid last week of every month. August 2018 to January 2019 statement used. The allowances quoted was the last six payments. No lodgement.

I appreciate @Justwise.

You needed to submit enough documents to support to source of that money, not just company registration papers and bank statement only

Irenenwaka:

1. Yes

2. Its the same process

Tblanre:


Nope! Till you retrieve your passport.

Tot they said they now athach the refusal letter with the mail. Does that means the guy visa is approved since there is no letter athached?

Thank you Boss.

I find it difficult to attached pdf file. Below is the contents of page 2:

I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the
requirements of paragraph(s) 4 of Appendix V: Immigration Rules for Visitors.
I have considered your application in the context of your evidenced personal circumstances and
funding. You have declared in your visa application form that you are employed full time earning
£337 a month and that you are married with three dependent children. You also state that you
propose to travel to the UK with your spouse and child as a tourist for six days, staying in hotel
accommodation. You have further stated that you will meet the costs of your proposed visit.
However:
• I must also consider the evidence of your personal circumstances and funding as demonstrated by
you. You have stated that you will personally spend £2850 on your proposed visit. I consider the
personal cost of your proposed visit to be around eight times your stated net monthly employment
income. Whilst I have noted that you state you have investments, it has not been sufficiently
explained how such proposed expenditure is credible.
• As evidence of your own funds and financial circumstances you have submitted bank statements.
However, whilst I have considered the documents submitted I am not satisfied that you have
sufficiently demonstrated the origin of the funds shown in your personal account. I am not satisfied
that these statements are a reliable reflection of your financial circumstances or your stated ability
to pay for your proposed visit.
• I am not satisfied that you have sufficiently demonstrated your personal circumstances and funds
or that they are as such that you can be relied upon to meet the conditions of visit entry clearance.
Taking the forgoing into account, I am not satisfied that you intend to leave the UK at the end of
your visit. Furthermore I am not satisfied that you have sufficient funds available to cover your costs
whilst in the UK without working or accessing public funds. Your application has therefore been
refused under paragraphs V4.2 (a) and (e).

What explanation did you give about the source of that payment into your account and how much was it?

I explained that the money that enter my account is money that my customer paid for the goods that they purchase from me.i included the receipt that issue for them in the application. Can I need to asterics all the large transaction in the statement of acct .I can't even say the actual one that they are talking about because the eco did not specify in the refusal letter.but the highest money that my customer pay is 700k,sometime 500k,sometime 300k. Like that .am into supply of food stuff, bag of rice , vegetable oil.

justwise:


1. Yes

2. Its the same process

please justwise dont be mad at me, but i have few more questions
1. should this invitation letter be posted to the embassy by me or sent to my mum and then my mum submits it along side other documents?
2. how can i maximize her chances of getting a visa?
a) i have siblings who re 21 nd 23(tehy wouldnt be travelling with her ), do you think i shud declare them as dependants(they are actually dependants tho)??
b) like i said she wud be sponsoring herself with about 7 million in her account..she does business, when filling the form i got to a place dt said how much does she earn annually......i found that question quite inappropriate for a business person , cos the fact is they live on hopes with no fixed amount yearly....nd even certain times when money comes before u know it they hv to do turn over nd order for some more goodsss.......i am sorry for the whole story but basically, i am trying to say i dont know how best to answer that question to maximize her chances
c) what do u think i shud put has her montly stipend?? wat do u think they re looking for ??


please anyone as well can give a shot at my questions..thanks family

Kindly check the website again, this is different from the Uk website/interface we used few months ago.

1.) You can use invitation letter if the person living in the Uk is ready to accommodate 4 of you, have enough space to accommodate you, ready to send invitation letter, data page, account statement+ payslip(if she will be taking care of feeding as well).


2.) Submit the treasure bill certificates, 6 month payslips(yours and your husband's), account statements(both), ensure you have (flight money of 4) and extra in your saving accounts, and present it. No lodgement of money please.

3.)Ensure the money you intend to spend(budget) is not up to 3times your monthly salary(per person). You are to fill a form per person, you are not filling one form for all. You will fill 4 online forms in this case.

Do a cover letter to explain your budget; flight ticket+Transport+feeding(put nil if it will be provided)+shopping+SightSeeing; ensure this is done for each of you separately, no high budget please.

Mention where you intend to take the kids to, for sightseeings, at least 2places around the location you intend to stay

4.) Cool

5.) Family application should be submitted and scanned separately(attended to together) on the same day of appointment.

Make copies of your documents (original OR photocopies per person), all documents will be scanned and returned to you.


6.) Include this(travel history) on the form


7.)As mentioned earlier: Ensure the money you intend to spend(budget) is not up to 3times your monthly salary(per person)

If N50,000 is assumed to be your monthly living expenses:
N256,000 - (50,000) = N206,000.
N206k is your disposable income when you minus monthly living expenses


Or your monthly salary is N256k as mentioned, and monthly living expenses is N50k
Budget of the form shouldn't be more than 2*N206k =N412k(on your own form or breakdown analysis (cover letter))

Your Husband should do the same; i.e 2*(N260k-N50k) budget

For your kids; is there any travel allowance(for family pleasure) from your office, that's good. Get a letter as regards that from your place of work(this can be used to cover the kid's expense/ or if you have enough to cover their expense in your saving accounts, good, convince the ECO the money in your savings is readily available to take care of your kids' expenses(on the cover letter)

8.) It should with proofs

Kindly attached Landed property documents if there is any
Get letter from the kid's school, add their school fees receipts, birth certificates, etc.

Kindly wait for the Guru in the house to advice you more.

Though, I applied this, My Two kids & I were given Visas by God's Grace, few months ago.

Don't forget to check the website again if it's the real one.

Good luck.

Are you planning to cancel after the visa is out? If you have a place to stay then i suggest you avoid making a reservation and cancel when visa comes out because it could backfired on you at the POE

Regarding your first question..since this is a family trip you and your hubby can spend two months of your salaries each.

@Justwise my sister inlaw just told me she got a refusal letter when she picked up her passport. And her hubby and son were granted 6moths visit visa each but she who is the main sponsor was denied on the basis that she submitted her UK bank statement. She said she explained the source of how she had the funds in her account. She got admission in Canada and paid tuition fees but was refused visa so the school refunded the money back into her uk account. So she kept it there as a saving she can always fall back to whenever. But she works in her fathers company who happens to be my father inlaw and submitted payslips, employment letter and intro letter from the office. Now the VO says how come she has money in her UK account and resides in Nigeria and works here too; note she used to be a student in the Uk and has since returned home lastyr and she is so pissed cos she wrote a cover letter how she got the money. What should she do as she wants to resubmit. She says she has email correspondence from the school in canada when they wanted to refund her money, also receipt of her payment confirmation from the school in Canada. What do you advice?

Horlahorla:
Good morning house, please I need your help on something. I plan on applying for my Uk visit visa first week in March. My account balance is 600,000 at the moment. Before the end of the month an extra 620,000 should be credited in my account.
300,000(my monthly salary).
240,000(shop rent) , I received another 240,000 early this month.
80,000(from family member).

I have a shopping complex in my name, a plot of land I just paid for. I have just the Deed of agreement for the land, no survey yet.

Am I good to go?
Thanks

Good afternoon @justwise and other gurus in the house. Please I need your help on this. I already told my other tenant to send her rent(240,000) to my other account. But the 80,000 I borrowed my family member is in my account now. I have 700,000 in the account now. By end of the month the closing balance will be 1 million naira.Can I apply with the 1 million? My budget for the trip is 350,000 to 400,000. My Uk host will take care of the feeding and accommodation.
Thanks

She should have used her Nigerian salary account in addition to that of UK, she made a mistake by using the UK bank statement only

This trip is going to cost you far more than you earn in 7months which makes it un-affordable and you did not defend the source of money generated from your side-business.

Those are the two major reason for your refusal.
