After successfully paying for Assisted Services on TLS Website and I got a notification that Payment succesful, the page redirected me back to to TLS Website and i saw an error "Unable to validate order"

Meanwhile TLS updated their site yesterday and removed self service from the option due to several complains.

Please what do i need to do for the Unable to valide order.


Also, How can i link my daugther's application to her mum that she's applying with.


My daughter is 2years old. i'm filling her own application. (what do i write in amount she earns (its not accepting NGN 0 or GBP 0)) .
Also amount budget for the trip. I put same details i filled for my self there. (Is this correct?)
Lastly, My brother is an EU/ EEA resident permit holder which means he is my daughter's uncle but[b] ( see 2nd attached)[/b] no uncle in the option of relation in the UK. What can i fill

Please house, help me look into this


Suspense12:
Good day house, please I have these few questions.

My girlfriend was refused uk visa in July because of the fact that she didn't explain the other sources of funds in her account (this was the only reason given for the refusal). She works in a bank but the statement she submitted shows that she received other funds with her account which was not explained.

She wants to make another application this October but needs some clarifications.

1. She wants to travel by November, hope the 3months minimum application won't be an issue?

2. She has provided invoices, delivery note and receipts she obtained as these explains the sources of the funds in her account.

3. She has written a justification letter explaining the other source of income. She has also updated her information on the website explaining that she has a business she runs..though the business is not yet registered.

4. Can an unregistered business issue receipts..cos she is thinking of uploading receipts showing her business name or personal name?

5. She earns over 300k per month and she indicates that she wants to spend £2000 on the trip...is the money too much or little??

6. Initially she applied for 7days vacation but she wants to increase it to 14days

7. She has been able to shift her vacation at work and she has a letter to back it up.

What other documents can she attach ??

You don't need flight reservation. You need a return ticket price for estimating your travel budget; check Cheapflights.com & Opodo.com. What you'd likely need is hotel reservation if you don't have a place to stay in the UK.

1. No, it won't.

4. An unregistered business can issue receipts but is her business really issuing receipts as a front for the visa app or actually issuing receipts?

5. Her budget for this trip is roughly NGN900,000. So she wants to spend 3 months income on a 7/14 days trip. It doesn't sound right to me. And I doubt it'll fly with UKVI. She needs to reevaluate her budget for this trip.

6. Same as above. Why would she want to spend 3 months income on a 14 days trip? Red flag!

She should read through the pages here for the documents she needs to attach.

Cheers!

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by giselle237: 1:03am On Sep 23, 2019
what currencies are these? And your hotel budget is much..
Miscellaneous, sight seeing, intra city transport budget are not compulsory to be mapped out... you can sum it up in one and write a lesser amount
redo your budget using 400000-180000... which is 220k x 2
Ur safe budget shudnt be more than twice ur disposable income.
My advice

Reduce your disposable income,
Look for a cheap hotel or hostel
Reduce trip to 6-9 days
Finally reduce total budget using disposable income x 2 as your yardstick

If this person will be paid leave allowance of about 300 - 400k.. The budget will definitely fly.

If the applicant is entitled to a reasonable leave allowance, the budget is fine. With the leave allowance, only a small part of the monthly disposable income will be added to the trip budget and you will realize that the budget is just fine.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by giselle237: 7:39am On Sep 23, 2019
everything joined together is the cost of the trip

Why bringing subjunctive statement of ''If' into the equation, the person that asked question didn't provide any details as such as he has been adequately advised. Don't confuse the applicant.

Spending more than 2 months salaries on a single trip is a redflag bro. The budget is not fine. Check those that have been denied with similar cases. Always stick to the info provided by the person asking the question. No mention of leave allowance. You will now spend more than 3 months salaries on a 14 day trip. RED FLAG.

Everything seems fine until i worked out the estimated budget for 14 days holiday -

Let her apply for 7 days and reduce the cost to around N400k if possible. You have have to search for budgeted hotels and HOSTELS to reduce accommodation cost, miscellaneous can also drop - lots of free attractions (google is your friend)

Feeding - Max of £20/per day except she's a heavy eater.

She will be issued with 6 months anyway and if she wishes, she can extend her vacation once she's in the UK and has enough money for the extra days

You can choose Other for the relationship
For your daughter's budget, try and estimate how much her ticket will cost and put it. You can put 1 in the budget for accommodation for her if it will not accept 0 (same with how much she earns) Then you explain in the cover letter
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by giselle237: 10:01am On Sep 23, 2019
