Good evening everyone.I have been following this thread and I must say you guys have been a blessing to many people, thank you very much and God bless.please I need advice
My sister wants to apply for a Uk visit visa and she is self employed(fashion designer) and a freelance architect however she has to stop paying herself salary for a while due to Covid as she laid some of her tailors off and needed some restructuring for her business until three months ago when she resumed paying herself salary. she pays herself a salary of 200,000 which she resumed back in July this year and she also gets about 1.5mil yearly from her freelance jobs.she is worried and wondering if she can go ahead with the application and explain that she had to stop paying herself salary because of Covid and also if she can state that she will be traveling with her sister who already has a Uk visa.she will be using her business and personal account to sponsor the trip.Thank you very much for your responses in advance as it will be highly appreciated,God bless.

Then he needs to apply as spouse which is straight forward.All he needs to do is to prove they have been in a relationship for more than 2 years and lived together plus their finances are sufficient.Plus proof that she is British and they are married.
Invest in a bit of research as everything is online and transparent.

I don't think you actually read my comments, off course they know about spouse visa, earning 18,600, 6monthts payslipsnetc.
mrs John is expat and has been in and out of the UK for the last 15 yrs.

could anyone else give some input, please?

she has told u all. The visit visa in a nutshell does not make sense. Mr john you can continue to see her in Nigeria as she frequents nigeria accrding to your story. You are a potential overstayer and a visit visa will likely not be granted. Look onto other more permanent visa types.

Nigeria will be added to this list of countries and territories with approved proof of vaccination 4am Monday 11 October. If you arrive in England before that date you must follow the rules for people who are not fully vaccinated. If you arrive after that, you can use a vaccine certificate to prove your vaccination status.

Thank you.
You would need to have a Job offer from a company that has a sponsorship licence before applying for visa.Make sure the visa cap does not affect your industry though nurses and Doctors are exempt.

Thank you madam Tutu82, please what do you mean by Visa cap?
Visa cap means for example i need 10 engineers so when the 11th applies i do not take them.
Pressure was put on the prime in 2018 and the visa cap was scrapped in principle but for some certain occupations when they have reached what is required,you find you apply and everything is correct but you get a denial.
Based on 2021 list your occupation code is 1242 and i do not see any visa cap.
You can comb websites like total jobs.com,indeed.com,Reed.co.uk and homecare.co.uk and careersmart.org.Uk for job offers.
Any Job advertising payment first or your bank details is a scam so be careful.I hope this helps and i wish you best of Luck.

Hi Guys,
Please, I'm applying for UK standard visit visa. My UK Sponsor sent me supporting documents including; Passport (Copy), utility bills, Documents relating to his properties (copies) and Mortgage Statement.

I want to ask, Would these supporting documents help me get the visa without he providing me his bank statement?...Or the Mortgage statement is in replace of the bank statement..?

1. Do not submit the application without tb certificate. He should send a mail with his payments + explanation to the iom booking email . He will get a date
2. Just so he doesn't end up paying money twice, can he find out from his intending organisation if there’s a particular english test he needs as there are several tht are assessing different things
3. Cos, tb certificate, if the job deals with vulnerable ppl police certificate, english test of required

Does the mortgage statement demonstrate funds to cover travel expenses without bank statement?
