Sorry about your refusal, you can still try again, but please work on the reason you have been refused earlier before applying again...

I don't think I'm trying them again.. This is the second time.. I gave them everything they requested even more.. And they said "they can not acertain that I will leave the schengen state before my visa is done"

subieey:
What was the reason for refusal

they are not sure I'll come back

timidapsin:
they are not sure I'll come back

That's the way they reject people nowadays ooo, I think this is the right time we try other countries with less visa wahala... Like Turkey..

Hello bro, longest time, I think today is your court hearing, just pray hard and I know you will find God's favour amen...

My advice to anyone looking to secure a visa from Nigeria is :
First apply for Dubai 2 weeks visit visa =about $150
Book a cancellable hotel in Dubai
Buy a cancellable ticket. Lets say= Naija to FRANCE, France To Dubai, Dubai to Nigeria.{BY SO DOING,YOU HAVE CLEARD THEIR DOUBT OF NOT GOING BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY}

Don't Forge any document you don't have ,Write a letter explaining why you don't have it(I did this with my UK visa. I didn't have bank statement from my company as they were meant to be sponsoring)
Make sure to attaché a letter from your company stating how many days you are going to be off from work.

If someone is inviting you, please attached their passport copies, proof of address etc. (the invitation letter should state that you will go back after your stay to continue your job and that you wont be accessing social funds)

the amount in your account doesn't really matter. they want to make sure that you have good income and to see the in and out flow.
they want to make sure you have good ties back home and that you have some money left over when you come back (my friend got her visa with only 200k in her account but her job paid 500k salary)
will add more if I remember

1. I used hotel reservation from booking.com, I don't know anybody in any of the schengen countries

2. I only traveled once to UK in 2016, that's the only travel history I have.

As per your 3rd question, I think if your application is straight with all the relevant documents and with God on your side you will get the visa. I got my UK visa in 7 working days

Pls house, I over stayed my UK business Visa which was issued in 2010 and I came back to naija in 2013 voluntarily with my passport. At the departure the UK immigration wrote a number inside my passport, the said passport has expired and I have collected another one which I have used to travel to Dubai. I want to apply to the UK embassy for visa, what is my chance of getting the visa?

Hi gurus, I have united Arab emirates residence visa.. I wish to apply for schegen visa.. Pls how long is their visa processing and do they withhold international passport when you apply for visa? Pls guys help a brother.

Normal processing time is 15 working days and yes you have to submit your passport so they can affix the visa if you qualify....

Also are you applying from the UAE or Naija?

Please dont try to stay quiet about it

I know someone that was banned for 10years

Its better you come out to explain and plead and lets see if you will get the visa again, and if you dont you can always reapply some other time rather than getting a ban.
