No point going to vfs when you've not been sent a collection mail. Your best bet is to send a paid email or patiently wait for collection mail. Add prayer to your waiting to. All things are possible. All the best

Hello Abbebbay please have you gotten a reply yet on your application from vfs or ukvi ??[/quote]
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Abbebbay: 4:49pm On May 09, 2025
Congratulation Milito,so happy for you..hope to hear good news on ours too...




Milito:
Biometrics on 17th April, Ikeja.
Decision email yesterday 8th May.
Collected today 9th May.

It was successful.
2 yrs given

I got 6 months, which I used once last year after 2 previous refusals. After my last year UK visit, I've also made 2 separate Euro trips.

I applied with the usual documents, but didn't write cover letter this time around. Last year I wrote detailed cover letter addressing previous refusals. This time, I packaged my thoughts in the extra notes column at the last section of the form.

Documents
- hotel reservation
- employment letter
- promotion letter
- letter from employer indicating I've been approved to go on leave and also that employer is sponsoring the vacation.
- Employer account statement
- Employer CAC documents & tax clearance.
- 4 months personal account statement with 2m plus.
- 6 months personal USD account statement with $3,000 plus.
- family documents -marriage and children birth certificates.
- previous visas and stamps.
- pictures taken during previous travel and also that of family.
- monthly expense declaration of 1m.
- budget for trip 3,500 pounds.
-Personal amount committed towards trip 500 pounds.

Did not put cover letter, ticket reservation, pension account, personal tax clearance and landed property this time around eventhough I put all of them for my 1st UK visa last year.

I saw space to upload educational qualifications, which I'm not sure I noticed and uploaded in time past. Anyways, I uploaded my BSc & MSc cert there.

Thank you Nairaland folks for your free advice and tips from time to time. 🙏🏾 🙏🏾
