Property documents
Copy of dependants birth certificate in Nigeria(if any)
Evidence of pension and retirement

Thanks for your response earlier. I have another 2 question please.

The property document only includes my dad’s name, can I upload this to my mum’s application as well?
My mum is also listed as director in the company, should I upload the company documents in her application as well?

Thanks a lot

No, don't include it. Only include documents on each person's name.

Yes, include the cac and the document listing her as one of the directors.

Sanmigbola:

No, don't include it. Only include documents on each person's name.

Why? Isn't she his wife? What if it was jointly purchased? Marital property belongs to both parties. I have included documents in my husband's name severally, I only had to specify it was jointly owned wherever they asked abt property etc and importantly, I had evidence of marriage to him

Let's be sure of the advice we give here pls!

can you share document submitted

theGodson:
Visa approved

thread was useful in putting in application

Biometrics - 18th June
email to come pick up - 7th July
Picked - 8th

I created a table to explain funds inflow over a threshold in my account.

thanks all.

Sanmigbola:

No, don't include it. Only include documents on each person's name.

Ok thank you

Hello, after using self service to upload and submit documents, is it possible to still add additional documents? Maybe at the appointment centre or via the portal?

I will really appreciate your response(s) to this. Thanks.

Is it the same ECO that attended to your application that will attend to his application.

If it work for you doesn't mean it will work for someone else. Have you thought about the adverse effect if it doesn't work for her, considering the fact that its not in her name.

Visa application is a 50:50 thing. Mind you am not forcing him, am only advicing him and stop acting as if you are the ECO that will attend to his application pls.

Yes, you can upload documents at the appointment but you will pay additional 11,700(not sure of the price)

Ok. Thank you. I have uploaded and submitted already via their portal though (using self service) but the person inviting me just sent two new docs that would prove useful. My documents are all in soft copy already, would that be accepted?

First, you gave your opinion and I gave mine, so where did you see me act like the ECO?

I merely corrected your assertion. So long she can show proof of a subsisting marriage to the Original poster's father, she can upload joint landed properties even if they are solely in his name....

Yes, they will scan it for you when you get to TLS.

You don't need to correct me because you are not the ECO.
You acted like your opinion is final have you thought about if it doesn't work for them.


There are instances where people will upload the same documents and some will get their visa and some won't get their visa.
If it work for you doesn’t mean it will work for someone else madam. You are not the ECO !!!

Ire o, I have nothing to prove to you! Whatever you say is correct then since your opinion is infalliable

Sanmigbola:

Okay, great. So I can just go with the soft (digital copies) then. Thanks so much. Really appreciate it.

IamDavidJames:

Go with printed copy (A4 size only)

Nobody will collect soft copy from you oooo

You are not proving anything. You are only trying to act like you are the almighty ECO.
Visa application is a 50:50 thing. This pattern might work now and fail afterwards. Have that at the back of your mind.

Good evening everyone, please can I ask questions on tier 2 visa on this thread?

Sanmigbola:

You keep shouting acting like the ECO and I have asked you to point out where in my comment I gave that impression.

See, I have followed this thread from Part 1 and that was shortly before my application in early 2010 and I have had all succesful applications since I started so you can bet I know already that visa application is 50:50. Much more, I can tell you for free that the essence of this thread is to learn from others, I remember you asking numerous questions just a few weeks ago because you needed to be sure you were doing the right when filling your form and lots of people responded to you (some of us just prefer to read and not comment).

So tell me why only your opinion should matter in this case? There are some authority on this thread that I won't argue with because I am 100% sure they are more knowledgeable than me eg Justwise,Giselle,lagosismyhome, omobendel, Monmari, Ijeshaoflondon, Tutu etc sorry you are not one of them!

Please house Is it necessary to scan a photo on A4 paper before uploading ? Or just scan the photo directly and upload it ?

I'm after the size of the photo because i read on tls website that all the documents should be on A4 paper size?

DeeOneBangin:

Lol, so I have to print all the documents?? Even after having them in soft copy already and uploading it. I've uploaded all the documents already using the self service but I just got new documents that I will like to add.

For self upload, just scan docs and upload...

For assisted services, all docs must be A4 paper size

Only the new documents is what you should print out and take to the tls centre.

They will add it to the ones you have submitted.

It costs ₦11,700. No cash payment allowed.

You can go with the soft copy if it's A4 size but if not, make photocopies of it in A4 paper size

Scan the photo, put it in pdf format and upload.

Show me where I said only my opinion should matter.

You started creating issue for yourself when you said I am misleading him, guess you don't know the meaning of that. I have not said anything bad considering the fact that a different ECO can pick the application and give it a different meaning. We are all learning and you can't tell me you know it all. You need to know that the rule keeps changing and whatever work for Mr. A might not work for Mr B.
What if she present the document and another ECO sees it as fraud because the document is not in her name. Look at it from that perspective. You won't be there to defend the application in the presence of the ECO.

In my own case i have property documents bought with my money and my wife's name is included on all my property documents because of situations like this.

Even if you've been travelling when you were in your mother's womb you need to have one thing at the back of your mind that rules and regulations guiding visa process changes and every ECO's perspective towards documents you present is different.

I never claimed I know it all, but I will not advice my enemy to follow your opinion because people like you don't think of the after effect if it doesn't work as planned.

The bolded is not true in Nigeria.
Any property bought in one party's name is theirs alone - Nigerian courts do not distribute property on divorce, for instance.

Sanmigbola:
Statement of account
BRP
mortgage
Utility bill
Birth certificate
Pics taken together
Relevant documents from your parents to show their strong ties to Nigeria

On a Tier 4 visa, you dont need to show any of the bolded, how much can a student on 20 hours a week have in their bank account to cover costs of supporting two people in the UK in addition to themselves. Nor can a student hold a mortgage and if they're likely living in shared accommodation a utility bill, if any, would be pointless. No need for pictures taken together either, these are one's parents, so unless there has been a long period of no contact that needs to be justified, those arent necessary. And the OP lumley stated that they came for his/her undergraduate graduation.

The parents are the ones coming to visit their child and they are the ones to show they can afford the visit and have ties back home to make them most likely to return, etc.

SalewaAb95:
Hello all, please any opinion on this?

State what you know. It is perfectly acceptable to state that you do not know your father's date of birth/other details as you are estranged and have no documentation.
One thing is that applications made on behalf of minors can be disregarded when they make applications as adults in their own right (you didnt fill the form as you were a child at the time, so you are not responsible for what was stated there).
