VisaZest:
Hi,

1. There are several questions on the form asking about your savings, your monthly earnings, your monthly expenses, any other income. Each financial statement you add to your application supports your answers to these questions and this determines which statements to include. I said that to say- your mutual funds show your disposable income and should be included. In assessing your financial situation- how you move from salary to savings to disposable income must be coherent to the visa officer not merely having huge amounts in your statements.
2. You need an estimate based on your flights, accommodation, tours/activities, transportation and daily feeding. The money you plan to spend will be based on this estimate. It's okay to spend from your savings but take care not to have an estimate that's several times above your monthly salary.
3. Countries share immigration records plus when you scan your passport, they'll see the Canadian visa. In my opinion, having a Canadian immigration visa is a positive, however, this impacts on you proving ties to Nigeria (as your home country since your "home country" is changing).

All the best with your application!

Thank you very much for your guidance 🙏

1,500 is okay. Just ensure your stay does not exceed 2 weeks. Perharps 7 to 10 days to ensure the funds look reasonable.
Ok. thank you for your response

- Please add it. It might help your case to show that you have an option to go to Canada so why would you want to stay in the UK?
Thanks a lot for your quick response . I also wanted to add that I will be the one handling my flight and accommodation(staying in a hotel ) so I hope it’s not an issue I am only putting 1500 pounds as it seems a bit small for everything .

Hello Gurus,

Trust you are all having a good day, Wanted to seek your advice to apply for visitors visa to the uk. I plan to travel in August for two weeks

I did my undergrad and masters in the uk but haven’t been back since I left in 2015 after graduation , I have a valid US visa which i haven’t used yet and a valid Canada immigration visa (this is recent so haven’t relocated yet ) . Combined monthly salary of 1m from 2 Jobs , I save about 650k monthly and I have some savings of about 11k usd In a domicillary account and about 6.5mil In mutual funds and some in stocks ..my company also gives leave allowance of 1.3mil yearly when you are going on leave. Kindly assist with my questions below :

1) I don’t save my money in the account my company pays me, I move it to my mutual funds account so do I need to print the statement of the mutual funds? or just the statement of the domiciliary account and my payslip is enough

2) How much is safe for me to put as money I plan to spend, does my monthly salary , leave allowance and savings suffice ?

3) Do you suggest I attach my Canada immigrant visa so they know I have no plans of remaining there or its not necessary
