Oga I’m talking of people who applied from Nigeria, check all records those who got their France visa on first timer and compare with frequently traveler.

First timer from Nigeria is very slim

ogatboy:
Not true. If you present a good case, you'll get your visa. Remember it's a Nigerian that determines who determines your visa in most cases so they look at your documents in their eyes as a Nigerian

If you did new int passport your old passport number would be written in your new int passport

beejay1157:
Hello house, help me look at this, my COS has been ready since April, I lost my old passport in May ending. I got my new passport today. My concern is, i hope there won’t be an issue of slight difference of Data page on my Cos, tb test certificate and my new passport( date of issue, expiry date)?

First timer traveler never been to Europe, uk or USA have a slim chance to get France visa let say 5 out of 50.

beautyuche:
Good afternoon House
Is it true france will deny anybody that has never been to UK or USA before?
A friend husband got denied and this is what his agent is saying.

Sorry for the refusal , Try and go through your bank acct statements if there’s any deposit that different to your monthly salary and the monthly expenses you claimed you are spending per month? I’m 90% sure this people will see something fishy in your bank statements before they complained

Shalom

midep:
Thanks bro

I have travelling history oh !

Seems they are just looking for excuse nin

I have other countries to visit after all is my money i wanted to spend for them.

But the dependents can switch to tier 2 if she secure a job can sponsor her on tier2 right?

Haiziik:
1. Dependants can work full time
2. The 20hrs is only for the worker shortage jobs but wasn't clearly stated if it's a paid job. What is clearly stated is that if you're on the visa, no salary except for stipend for maintenance in accordance with the minimum wage rule. So I therefore assume you can only volunteer in those shortage worker sector too. However, only an immigration solicitor will be able to shed more light
3. You can not switch to tier 2 from inside the UK.

Congratulations bro, you are trying to avoiding a question asked you about the school? Since you have gotten your visa bro leave the pass out nah? Also listed the documents you submitted abeg Biko …..lol.

That is what this family meant for to learn from ourself

QuackZulu:
Hey bro, mine as well, till I received it was still saying sent to the french embassy (even now).

What I did was, I called VFS this morning and enquired about my passport.

I told them my host institution informed me that my passport was picked up from the embassy and sent to them on Tuesday this week.

They asked for my tracking number and tracked it.
They said it's been sent to Port Harcourt.

I then googled the UPS number in Port Harcourt. I called them and they said it was with the dispatch rider. I got his number and called the not so enthusiastic rider and insisted that I get it today.
That was how I received it in the afternoon.

My advice is:
Check your document and use the tracking number to track it.

If possible, add your number and email to the UPS tracking site to get updates (you will get the most detailed one via this method).

If what played out today is any indication of how things work, then VFS takes forever to update and you may have to do some things yourself and add pressure if you want your passport.

Hope this helps and sorry about the long winded response.

Please my sister want to apply for a charity worker temporarily visa tier5 and there’s a question that asked

Bosslady25:
Good morning,everyone. Please, how long does it take to get one’s passport back from TSL after a refusal mail? I got the email last Friday. Yet, no pickup email from TSL. The tracker is still on application received by DMC.
Please, who has experienced this?

meccisoft:
Please can.you drop.your digit I want to ask some questions.. I also applied for Tier 5 charity visa

Meccisoft pls check your email

I think this people are toying with our emotional did 2 different interview within 2 weeks and they promised to get back, I didn’t hear from them so I try to email to know what’s going on. The first company let me to understand that at this time they are not looking for a male carer, while the second company said they can’t continue with the application without any concrete reason. however, all the interview I had was so excellent and flow even the interviewer amazed and confirm it.

I think this care worker route is sinking

God help me for the seek of my kids if not who care

Bro you have answered your question already

Chiefholloway:
Called the embassy today and the man from the other end said I should come pick the passport up.

Should I reapply? Please what's your suggestion house?

Please kindly give me the email I can write them to ask if they do accept HND ? Because I was told by people that they don’t accept hnd

zinaunreal:
Why don't you email them yourself and ask because I did and they said they do accept hnd

Reference letter is not compulsory

askari01:
Reference letter from hospital .Qed.

Those stupid security at the brazil consulate gate are ripper, just go try and write withdrawal letter in a simple form your name and passport number stated that you are urgently needed your passport for something crucial. If you go without this letter those ripper at the gate will price you by showing one kind attitude but if you arrange the letter along with you that’s cool. Just tell those security at the gate that you are here to withdrawal your passport sikina

Chiefholloway:
Dear house,
Those of you that didn't get approved, how did you go about collecting your passport?

I have sent series of mails to the embassy but they won't reply. I haven't got mail to go pick up my passport either.

Should still wait or just go there to pick it up? Please advise.

This is what my status showing

I didn’t see your response bro, yes I do try to call embassy but nobody pick my calls.

Have a lovely trips bro and please update the house when you are back

Nchabuomo:
Did you check your spam? Naah, not in the country currently. Did you try to call the embassy?

Nice thoughts modskiller , but do you think all those transit country will stamp the passport ?

Also do you have idea how someone can apply for Morocco visa without visit Abuja? I’m seriously need of that visa bro I will send you message on Nairaland please check your email mail and reply me so we can connect

modskiller:
Yes. I saw your post on the thread. It was short, simple and precise enough.

I was saying if you had boarded Lufthansa airlines you’d have had a stop over at Holland before the take you to Marrakech or Morocco.

Same airline would have picked you up from Morocco and taken you to France before they finally bring you back home.

This would boost your passport strength as regards travel history.

Lol funny enough I didn’t see automatic response any way bro what I wanted to ask if you are staying in Abuja? Maybe you can assist me submit my application

Nchabuomo:
Replied

Good morning, sorry I didn’t got your response but I have resend another email @comfort

Thanks

Nchabuomo:

Olusegunz:
