Card payment didn't go through as well but I did a book on hold and I got an email with their bank details . I transfered to the GTB account quoting my reference number as remark and my ticket was sent by email immediately.

Don’t be a dumb, I am saying from my experience, card payments doesn’t go through and I had to go to their office. Paid higher because of the exchange rate[/quote]

Thanks very much
These are the documents submitted
My payslip and that of wife
Children birth certificate
Alot of pictures for home ties
Land documents for home ties also
Market women association letter
Mummys statement of acct with 1million intact
A very detailed Cover letters.

However I want to reapply but this time I will say she is unemployed. Hope I have a chance

Don't change her employment status. It would raise red flag. They might revisit the previous application. You need more supporting documents to back her business. If your Dad is still alive, he should write a letter of consent and as well upload her marriage certificate. Her business should be registered too. Try and see if you can as well generate income tax receipts too for the business.

Hello,

I am about to file in a visit visa application for my mother. She would stay with us for 5 months, my husband and I would sponsor everything. Question is.. hope the duration of 5 months is not too much? She is a petty trader, should I file her as unemployed, since it’s just small fruit selling that she does. Anyone with similar experience?

Everyone is luck is not the same. I have a friend whose mother In laws visit visa was granted 4 days ago. He filled out that the mom in law is unemployed, she is 64yrs old. He didn't upload any documents for her. He only provided sponsorship documents from his own end
If you must fill that your mom is employed or self employed, you need to back it up with enough proofs.(Documents). Reduce the visit duration to two weeks as advice by Giselle.

How Can I address this issue in rejection letter. You state that you are self-employed and generate annual income of 11,000,000.00 NGN. I see you provided a letter to support this. But, the documents do not show your business is active and profitable or generates a regular income, nor prove how you derive your stated income from the business. it is unclear whether you are employed as declared or how you generate your stated income. This damages the credibility of your application and raises concerns about your intentions to travel to the UK at this time.

I intend go add my CAC document to prove business is active but how do I prove the business is profitable or generates a regular income
Add tax return certificate to it, invoices and receipts from your suppliers, proof of your business assets

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by puffmama: 5:54pm On Aug 29, 2023
Check CAC status online for your company , if it's inactive , you need to pay your annual returns and ensure it's active before you reapply . A lot of people have been refused visas because of this .

Hi
Pls I need guide on travel history. I had Shengen C type visa (single entry) last year issued by Finland embassy. I travelled to Finland via Frankfurt where passport where my passport was stamped. 5 days after completing my engagement in Finland travelled to Paris for 4 day, then back to Frankfurt for departure to Nigeria.

So my arrival and departure stamp are reading Frankfurt. How do I complete my UK visa form? Number of entry in is it one or two? How do I explain this? Do I need to mention German and France too?

Thank you

You just answered your own question - you had a single entry into the Schengen region.

Simple!

For travel history, you have been to Finland, France and Germany (use bus or train stubs and any other documents such as pictures, stubs from activities and submit as needed)
