If you are traveling with a minor, you need a consent letter, a notarized letter of consent from the child's other parent or legal guardian, permitting for the child to travel with you. This letter should contain the other parent's full name, contact information, signature, and the child's full name and date of birth. If the other parent is deceased, you must provide a death certificate. If the other parent's whereabouts are unknown, you must provide a court order showing that you have sole custody of the child.

A copy of the child's birth certificate should be included.

Also include picture evidence. You both might even snap a picture holding the consent letter together.

Ok thank you for this information. What if I’m not traveling with this child? In my previously refused application, I put in his mother’s name. I’m just wondering if it will be an issue since I have a new partner I would be traveling with instead?

It seems like you already see the problem.
Read what the guideline says then count if you have met the required 28 days.You might as well print from the day the funds entered your account that’s 27th February.

This proof of funds is still confusing me, the 28 days is minimum, right? Hope it's okay if the money has been there for more than 28 days or is it that the fund cannot exceed 28 days in the account?

It is pretty straight forward and you are correct 28days is minimum.
This means you could have had the money in your account for MORE THAN 28days but NOT LESS THAN 28 days.
What they require is 28 days.

Hello guys, I’m asking on behalf of myself. Please if you have a child from a relationship and you get married to someone else and applying as dependent, or a dependent to a live in partner, would your application be affected? If yes, what should I do right.

I know I give advise here, but I just need to be sure I’m getting things right

The biological mother of the child needs to give you consent to travel with the child.

You are free to be with who you want that is not home office concern.What is of concern to them is if you need to travel with that child the biological mother writes a letter of consent and you have parental rights.

While in this marriage,were you married legally or only living together?.As you would require the divorce documents to claim dependent of a new partner.

Don’t complicate your application and only provide relevant information.

All you have said is true,But snapping a picture holding the consent letter is a bit much and looks desperate.I would advise not to do the most.

And what If they were never married? What is the reason to worry about a divorce cert.
The child will have a birth cert.
Names of the child's parent are on that.
Present that and a letter of consent from the mother..

Okay, I got confused because of the person that wasn't sure whether 28th February to 27th March is up to 28 days.

Just leave it for more days if you are in doubt

At what point did i ask to worry?.I simply asked if they were married or living together.

If they were never married that is an entirely different scenario and a simple notary statement solves that all.

A letter of consent can be gotten under duress so is not a stand alone in a marriage as some relationships do not end amicably and one partner can attempt to flee with the child.

I already got hindsight of what you are about to do because I saw your comment on the student session. That is the reason I said you should also include PICTURES. They don't joke with child trafficking; given your history and what you have declared previously, you need more evidence (PICTURES).

In your previous application, you are fine if you didn't declare you were married. If not, get proof of the dissolution of your marriage. Also, just as you know, you need to give sufficient time for your application.

Anything can be done under duress, if you thing thats a joke ask INEC..

Regardless of a relationship status, a legal binding letter of consent should be acceptable to an eco with other present facts.

Suggestion of a divorce cert. makes it a worry to the op directly or indirectly as against to your own thoughts.

It is my department and am saying what i know not offering my own thoughts.I am not suggesting a divorce certificate is needed i am saying it is needed if the parents were married legally.

I'm not contesting your department with you, but pointing a fact to you, that even if they were legally married and perhaps not divorced, if the bio mother gives consent, one that is legally binding, then status of unionism is almost inconsequential with presentation of other facts that the applicant may have to argue his case.

Hi there!.
With currency conversion and all that, tickets are expensive so first decide if you want to go direct then buy British airways which would cost you a little more or you want to have a stop over which would cost you a little less.

Either way you looking at 400k+

As for safety…it’s a plane.

Have a look on websites like https://www.skyscanner.net it does the price comparison for you.

I hope this helps.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Yemi234: 11:57pm On Mar 08, 2023
Is it okay to book a flight a day earlier and 2 days later than you mentioned in your cover letter for application cause it’s cheaper than the specified dates

Good morning Teacher's

Trust you had a good rest.

I'm very new here and I need guardians

I'm in the process to apply for transist visa in UK to tourist in Barbados.

My self and my wife. We have paid UK visitor Visa for the transit.

The available date is on the 16th of March for biometrics which we have picked.

My agent abandoned us because He has no experience passing through UK to Barbados and which experienced people here believed is the safest and are abroad already.

The documents to be uploaded are the passport front page, proof of funds, marriage certificate and I don't know if there are any other documents we need to attach for it to be successful please help me drop.

Also am a dependent on wife and I also have proof of funds to support as well. I'm a fitness trainer/ farming and she's a Fashionista / Model.

And She's pregnant of 7-8 months and you would already know of my wish and purpose

I'm looking forward to hear from expertise here as I hope that this message finds you all well.

Thank you and God bless

You do not need a visa for Barbados if you intend to stay for less than 6 months just a valid passport and return ticket is fine.
You will need to fill a travel form online before you get on the flight then check with your airline that they are not going through a country that requires transit.
As she is so close to her EDD you would need to consider the safety for her and the baby since flight time is over 6hrs.

Mostly Jus sanguinis but Yes Jus Solis as well,
the child would be Barbadian if the child is born onboard a Barbadian plane or in their land.
There are very rare situations where this is not the case.

Good morning House.
I applied for a UK standard visit visa and did my biometrics on Feb 20.
I had a program I am to attend on May 5 and was supposed to arrive in UK on April 25 which was what I wrote on my visa application form.
I was issued the visa and noticed that my entry date was written as 18th of May instead of 18th of April.
Please what do I do? Am I supposed to pay for a new visa application or write them or what?
Thanks.


Thanks to everyone that responded.
Did a paid call to them…actually told a friend in uk to call on my behalf and gave him every needed details.
They just mailed me today to bring in my passport for submission and I’ll be re issued a correct visa.
