Im not bashing you but pls avoid sharing unconfirmed infos from unverifiable sources! This is a big forum! One single advice that someone picks from here can land them in anything!

You previously said they were deporting people but everyday people come here and share they just arrived the UK,Unless the news is coming from FAAN,Minister of Aviation,Health minister’s,Govuk etc! Pls don’t share!

Definitely yes, u can use family or friend's house and you will definitely be asked this at POE. Adhering to it is a requirement but advisory cos there is no real way of policing it

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by giselle237: 3:44pm On Oct 01, 2020
Remove shopping money ooo. It is not their business. You are a tourist. Even if you write in ur form that u are going to snap pictures and come back in free tourist sites, you would still be given visa. Shopping fee is not a requiremnt

yes I repeat, some persons are deported on the ground of hotel reservation whom seldomly refuse to accept new ukba policies .]
on the issue of covid test, I didn't confirm neither did I recommend but base on information I got yesterday from a friend .I reckon you are just bitter with my post because I countered your fake argument about a guy who has a child and looking forward to overstay.
oga , if my post does not suit you kindly walk away. I don't know you and you don't know me!

When applying for a visit visa which will be fully sponsored by a relative in the UK, what will I enter as my expected expenses
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by twojul: 3:30am On Oct 02, 2020
Hello everyone. I’m trying to book my appointment for ikeja and all the dates I’m seeing are for premium lounge. Is this how is usually is? If I pay for this premium (42k) will I still pay for anything else at the appointment? I’ve selected self service and will upload all my docs myself to save cost

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Yemi234: 1:36pm On Oct 02, 2020
Good afternoon everyone, I have some questions please, I am a visual artist and a recent graduate. I have an exhibition in London at the end of the month which I intend attending for 2 weeks provided I get the visa. I have received invitation letter from the gallery, as well as from my Aunty who’ll be accommodating and feeding me. But I would bear the cost for the trip by myself. My questions are;

1) How much do I need to have in my account? Would 1.1M naira suffice for the application?
2) my brand isn’t registered yet, but I get paid for art sales and photoshoot, it’s how I make a living since I left school. Is it mandatory to have a business certificate? Or is it enough to show receipts/invoice of payments to prove where my money comes from.
3) I receive payments from 2 of my banks and save with PiggyVest, is it advisable to drop my PiggyVest bank statement and would it seem dubious if they see credit alerts from my other banks to my PiggyVest?
4) my aunt accommodating me is more like my mother’s cousin, so we don’t share the same name, but she has provided her data page, council tax and account statement as she’s a citizen of the UK.
5) will adding a landed property also help boost my application?
6) after biometrics does it mean I can’t forward money to my PiggyVest to save since I’m submitting the statement of account.

It’s my first ever application hence my passport is virgin. But can I also submit my ecowas passport alongside, it’s where I have travel stamps to several west African countries.


I’ll appreciate your kind response. Thanks
