whatx:
Did anyone else experience this?

After submission, status read "pending-successfull application but no email was sent to that effect.
I applied for experience position.
Anybody experience that?

Have you, got your confirmation. Is ur status still reading Pending-successfull?

Pls what's the pay like? For managers!

Monspubis:
Don't worry boss,thats usually the message from Ikeja.

I have got the visa! Praise the Lord! Hallelujah!

diamondsare4eva:
It means your documents will be dispatched within 48 hrs, but normally the next day, your documents will be ready for pick up. So expect to hear from them before midday tomorrow.
Come back and share the goods news!

Thanks, But is this kind of mail normally sent? They contacted my sister after seeing their missed call!

Well it is well!

nairacountry:
Possibly a decision is already made. They would possibly based the decision purportedly made on responses from your sister and overruled your expected/required response. Ceteris Paribus, if you lack not much evidence from your end, it would come out positive. Be optimistic bro. All the best

Just got this mail, don't know if it's positive or negative! No VAC, no REF!

sorry i responded late.....traveling things..
Best way to go about it is to contact them over the phone ... they tend to give u the best answer. a credit or debit card should be available because they will charge you about 1.34 pounds per mins. Good luck bruv.. Do not panic too much but please contact them asap; emails take forever and you do not get best response.

Thanks tunderule2016, I called them but niaja and the uk all they told me was dat they probably wanted to get some info, and they did by also contacting my sister over there in the uk, since den no decision, no call! BTW when I got across them in uk, I punch my debit card master card number, but I didn't get any alert since I had 5k on my card! Am so uneasy! Wat do u think!

U guys contribute to my above inquiry now! Biko!

Tunderule2016 pls wat can I do again as to the missed called incident, from the embassy?

Fyorgyn:
This hasn't happened to me with the UK but with another European Country. I missed their calls and couldn't get back to them... so I went ahead to send an email to the embassy and then they called back.

For the UK... you can either email them (they respond within 24hours) or call them to explain your case. I called UKVI last week when I wanted to cancel my application.

Go to https://ukvi-international.faq-help.com
Select the country you're living in and you will see the email or call option.

Have your GWF number ready and if you're calling, have your ATM card ready as well

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
I have done that, saw the option menu about enquiries, what do I click?

I have done that, saw the option menu about enquiries, what do I click?

Egbami, Pls my cousin saw 3 missed call from the uk embassy, and tried to return them, but couldn't get across as it was picked by the operator and dat one didn't give a cogent answer! What do we do to get across!

justwise:
What has changed since your last refusal? Was it visiting visa?

Have a blessed week

You know, sometimes pple think the way it is for dem, is the way it is for others, this naira country I sincerely wouldn't have replied u, but for the fact that you said somethings abv, will let me sch you a bit. Do you thing DSA is the same in other banks? You don't know how far I have gone pple I know etc, u just come in and blab and think u have made a point. You think I will just go in and submit fake figures, virtually my whole family are in the uk. I just had this job to do my self well, do u know wat I get aside my pay. Do u know if the DSA channel is well recognized in my banking structure. Pls wen u want to give advice, don't lord it over pple, don't even discourage me. I will do the best I can. And as tunderule2016 has said I will explain package what I can, and leave all to God. Have a good day!

tunderule2016:
The best will be yours IJN..

The most important thing is to do what is right i.e. submitting all required documents. Then leave every to prayer.

The pictures on whatsapp, records of the stipends if you have them and please make sure the pictures have dates , if they do not put it yourself. As for whatspp ( if you can get records that shows date timeline fine, they do not have to see the words in it .. but if you have no choice just print it off like that).

Arrange the documents well. There is a thread that explains how you arrange documents under Travel; read about arrangement.

My pple I really appreciate you all, what can I say you have been really helpful. I will inbox u and tell u any step of the way.

tunderule2016:
Is your contract a permanent contract or in some case some company uses the word STAFFED worker. Or are you a contract worker?

It's not a permanent contract, because that is the means they you in the bank ladder. From DSA, you get ur promotion become a senior DSA the an account officer. So it is part of the bank structure. Any one coming in will go thr the channel. So that why I said they will introduce me as a staff of the bank. I have spoken to my hr!

tunderule2016:
How long have you worked with the bank ? Need to know that.... Yes owing a KEKE is property

Car registration papers and/or car evaluation
o Confirmation of property ownership – including rates bill
o Investments and/or savings

6-7 months!

tunderule2016:
Evidence to consider in assessing genuine relationship

In assessing whether there is a genuine relationship, the ECO will consider the nature of the relationship, how you met the person, how often you communicate and by what method you use to communicate.A genuine relationship may generally be presumed when your proposed sponsor is a parent, spouse, child, sibling, or employer. However, it is not sufficient to merely state that you are related to the person without providing evidence of the relationship. In many cases, a birth or marriage certificate identifying you or the proposed sponsor will suffice.

If your sponsor is based in the UK, you must also provide evidence of regular communication or contact by reference to phone records, Whatsapp or Facebook records, email, money remittances, greetings or anniversary cards, etc. The burden to provide evidence of a genuine relationship becomes more pronounced where your proposed sponsor is an aunt, uncle, nephew, niece, cousin, etc. In many cases, official documentary proof of such a claimed relationship may be lacking. You must therefore provide evidence that the person has ongoing financial commitments to you or has previously sponsored other relatives.

For example, the officer may doubt your claimed sponsorship if you submitted documents affirming your uncle’s willingness to pay for your visit, but fail to provide satisfactory evidence of why your uncle will be willing to pay for the cost of your trip when he has not provided you with any previous or ongoing financial commitment or has no history of paying for other family members to visit the UK or elsewhere.

Sponsorship inside the UK

Your friend or relative in the UK may provide you with maintenance and/or accommodation provided they are not in breach of any immigration rule at the time of the decision on your application. In addition, the officer must be satisfied that your sponsor has enough funds available to adequately support themselves and anyone normally dependent on them, as well as you.
It will therefore not be sufficient to merely provide evidence of their bank statements and other supporting documents showing their ability to pay for you. They must explain in their letter the number of any dependents they have, the amount of money they propose to spend on you, and a statement that this should be sufficient to maintain them, their dependents and you.

Thank you, actually my brother and I are bearing the same surname, and I have pictures where he snap with me on my convocation, he normally sends me some monthly stipends and I chat regularly on watsap email. He doesn't have a child yet, and I have keke here. I just hope 4d best lol

tunderule2016:
It can fly only if you can show strong ties to Nigeria... You will need more than letter of introduction; how long have you been working with the bank?. You need to provide your employment contract. if you have properties or shares you need to attach that. Property documents(optional), Investment documents ( optional) but they are important.

Evidence of family ties

Marriage certificate (if married)

Wedding / Family pictures (if married)

Child(ren) birth certificates(optional)

Letter confirming your employment
 This letter needs to be on a company letterhead
 Needs to be dated
 Needs to state all contact details of your employer
 Needs to state your starting date of employment
 Needs to confirm that permission for leave has been granted
o Confirming travel dates

As for who is sponsoring you ..... Needs to provide Much more document But try using the sponsor that you both share last name that will help much more... but if otherwise .. then you will have to show what connects you both. Reasons that you have to go spend your leave with him or her?

Letter of sponsor,
Payslip
Bank statement
Bio data page
Rights ( The BRP or citizenship status)
Birth certificate (optional)


In the additional information box, you will need to explain a lot in there..

Your chances are slim but you can try if you can get this documents.... you have a chance

Good luck

Thanks the bank is giving me an introduction letter, letter of leave, but tie with my brother. Or family what do I need to show, am not married and don't have kids either. My brother and I have same surnames. And off the bank will give me in a letter headed paper. And what can I write in the additional information box. It's owning like 3 or 2 keke worth a property?

Good evening, I need some clarifications, I would be going on leave and would like to visit the UK.my brother is a citizen of UK and intends to write a letter of invitation stating he will take care if my accommodation, feeding and my sister too is ready to be a co sponsor as she is willing to buy my ticket and drop her statement. My brother too will drop his statement. presently I work in one of the commercial banks as a DSA( direct sales agent). They are not paying much at all. Our sakary is at the range of 50k. But the bank is willing to give a letter of introduction, and my leave request! Will this fly!
