Dear house plz help me.

In 2019, I was denied a tourist visa by Turkey embassy. Now I can't find the rejection letter and any other related document. The only doc I managed to see was the flight and hotel reservations.
Now, that it is needed by the Ireland embassy, plz what should I do?

Gurus plz help!!!

Since you quoted me, my opinion is that you indicate in writing you've been denied visa by the Turkish government explaining the reasons for refusal. This could cause a delay in your application as your claim need to be verified.

Hello

Booking is only done online i.e via the vfs website.

SasukeNG:
Wow
So sorry you had to experience that.

Do you have an idea if one can book via phone call?

If anyone is in Abuja, is the Abuja center any better please?

SameeD96:
It's an appeal that i submitted since january o and I received the reply that they've not resumed this week.
You believe they've resumed?

Good afternoon SameeD96, Please have u heard any update from the visa embassy concerning the appeal decisions because i send a mail to them no response yet Since last week ....And please check your personal mail so we can talk via mail.

Theblink123:

Yes correct.
Even If you have 3 Int’l passports, make two colored copy of all 32 pages of each of the passports.

Hello, what’s the point in making colored copies of the passport pages when the passport itself can be submitted? Just want to be sure

The point is they certainly won't accept black and white copies and that will cost you #20000 to #40000 when you get to the VFS office.

Yes, noted but the question is both original passports are submitted already so, why the photocopy again needed? I have a 64 pages and 32 pages so i am looking at 96 pages of photocopies? isn't that too much?

Thank you for your support.

That's a lot of money. Thank you for this. I made B&W copies of all documents at hand initially, now I have to make colored photocopies.

People of God, please is there a thread for Ireland Visit Visa? I have read few pages on this one but it seems like it’s only for study.

Kindly share a link if there’s one please.
Thank you

Hello ma,

Can statement of result be accepted in lieu certificate?

Secondly, if for example an English test expires just about a month before applying for the visa, can that fly or it'd be advisable to sit for another English test?

Get a covering letter from your university on why your certificate is not available and confirming that you've completed your program with your grades.

If your intake is September 2020 kindly write the Duolingo

If I may add, the Embassy of Ireland has requested for the copies to be in colour. You can go ahead to submit the black and white and VFS will receive whatever you submit. However, please note that you are starting your application on a bad note. You were asked to do a process in a certain way but you are wilfully doing it your own way. This indicates you might not be willing to follow rules. You can guess what the VO's first impression will be?
