yea, only dubai early this year.but i dont think that one really matter for uk

Ebylicious:


Yes ooo, they contacted me August 2nd to inform me that they had technical challenge and were unable to retrieve my supporting documents. So they advised me of an email to send my supporting documents again under 1week which I did. I say its a blessing indeed cus I used the opportunity to attach my cover letter which I didn't upload during my application.

I just give God the glory.

mroyato:
Can anyone confirm the possibility of applying to the UK without submission of passport until the final decision is made.

giselle237:
Yes it’s possible with the ‘Keep my passport’ service.
When the decision is made whether you were granted or rejected you would be asked to submit your passport and then you’ll either receive a refusal letter or visa vignette. Check TLS website for the price of this service

ijeshaoflondon:
Got concluded message since 15th August and till date no response... anyone in the same ship? My paddy needs to leave nigeria first week September ooo.

Darvick:


You can do keep my passport at extra cost

mroyato:

Do you have an idea how much the extra charge is?

MEhizele:
Hello Guys.

Thanks so much for the platform, I had no need to use an agent because I had access to all information here.

I did my biometrics on the 16th of July 19.

I got a mail on the 31st of July requesting for my account statement which I already uploaded using eDossier App.

I got another mail on the 8th of August requesting for TB certificate

Then finally I got a mail from TLS for collection on the 20th of August and my application was successful.

Thanks so much for the great work here.
God bless you�

Warm greetings to everyone here, I have been a silent reader on this platform and I carefully observed comments and observations from this platform which I used during my UK Visa application process. However, I received my application today and unfortunately, the application was rejected (reasons attached).

Please note that:
1. My budget for the proposed trip for 5 days was N400k (flight, hostel, tours and light shopping)- I was surprised the ECO stated that I was planning to spend over 5 times of my income. Biko is 5x200k equal to 400k?

1.1 [/b]My monthly income is 200K, paid in USD then I convert it directly from USD Salary Account to my Naira Account
[b]1.2 [/b]My Month expenses in 70K but there are some months I don't use my Salary at all due to the fact that I get travel bonuses and other incomes from freelance research jobs, which are OK to cover my expenses for that month and I stated this clearly on my Cover Letter

[b]2. I earn my salary in USD-( I provided my salary bank statements with a closing balance of a little over 500 USD)

3. My Savings Account had a closing balance of N1.2M

4. [/b]Provided a cover letter explaining my intent to travel, huge cash lodgements on my account early this year which was traced to my end of the year bonus, I work freelance- doing research for people, I even quoted a link to my profile with over 8k visits on a popular research website

[b]5. I'm single though

6. Travelled to South Africa on vacation some two years ago on my old passport( Though I scanned and uploaded the pages as evidence of travel history)

7. I have been denied visas for US and Canada- which I declared on my visa application

8. Please I would like to re-apply but would need your sincere opinions on my mistake(s)

Thank you.

Hello sorry for your refusal....But from what you wrote and what the Eco is saying i think its because your a freelancer he or she might feel that you might elope as they feel your not in fixed kinda employment with an organisation.

Dolorsa:
Bro, you provided too much information in the course of your application. Did you actually state N400K as your budget for the trip cos the ECO didn't say anything about it yet he went ahead to say your budget was 5 times your monthly income? And that's very rare for an ECO not to state the budget for a trip when an application is refused on the basis of spending more on a trip.

obiz0819:


Oh about that, the freelancer thing is a side income oo. I am fully employed with a foreign mission in Nigeria which pays my Salary. Of course, I presented a Letter of Introduction from work, Work ID and My Employment Contract. I think the issue is with my expenditure and income and I still confused on why it should be an issue

Too much information? Biko make me understand and regards if I stated 400k as my budget for this trip, please see enclosed

Darvick:
Le Trust me you did very well on your application, the red flags on your application are

Firstly you got a dependant your sister
Secondly you have been refused by US and Canada recently

As ECO first thing that will come to his or her mind is you desperately wanna leave Nigeria ASAP, therefore the ECO will find excuse to deny you. Look at it yourself it’s obvious that your cost isn’t 5times your salary as the ECO claimed.

This platform can help and mess you up, if everyone starts disclosing all info, only a few like 10% will get visa lol. The fact is don’t lie or make up things on your application and dont fake anything but be smart about what would have negative impact on your application.
ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY THERE IS MORE TO THIS PLATFORM THAN MEETS THE EYE?


Come on now you were refused by Canada US and expected to easily get a UK visa, your chance is slim. I don’t mean someone refused by US Canada can’t get UK visa o
THIS IS MEDICINE AFTER DEATH


My advice is Wait 1-2yrs and reapply don’t put dependant, build up more ties like family (wife and kids) and properties. Also let your reason for visit to be more genuine like attending graduation naming wedding etc

Good luck and all the best.

MrsDaniels:
@ the bolded....My bro was refused a USA study visa lastyear and he applied for UK visit visa he was given please. And the sister is part of his tie to Nigeria as she is his dependant. A person going for tourism can get a visa and not just for reasons like Grad or weddings. At the end of it God has the final say.

And whats wrong with this platform?

obiz0819:


So Madam, please how do you advise I cure this perceived mistake/confusion? In making a reapplication, Do I 1.[/b]Remove my additional income, [b]2. Reduce my proposed budget, 3. How soon can I make a reapplication?
