Does anyone know Turkish airline travel requirements for journey from UK to Nigeria please?

Mrmoney90:


Ok I get you now. You see, the mistake you guys made was reapplying again without letting the whole thing cool off after the first refusal.

Well, I admit the fact that I probably didn’t see self employed in the first refusal. I guess it must’ve been typing error from the ECO.

How much she makes annually is how much money she rakes in per year, which of course includes profits.

One problem with using your personal account for business is that transactions in the account cannot be understood easily. You know they also ask how much she earns per month, they would like to see that. Since her business is already registered with the CAC, why not get her a business account? So the money from her business can be going in there? From there she can be paying herself monthly from her business. That way, her finances will be straightforward.

Just work on the afore stated and Kindly give it some time before reapplying again.

Good luck

Thank you so much, we would open a business account to make it easier.

what’s the reason for travel? Who will sponsor? What does she actually do for a living? Pls if u recently applied less than a year ago, give it some time as the ECO complained about how u changed the annual salary in a flash. If she will still be sponsoring herself, pls give it some time as if u change this annual salary or deviate again without letting one year pass u will be hooked. U can’t be changing annual income as pleased and also she did not make any research about the travel she intends to make.

Hello, my mum is sponsoring herself, and reason for travel is vacation make she self travel once after hard work. My mum is a timber contractor and her business is registered and she also pays tax. My mum actually makes about 10-15m in a year, it’s a business that changes with season and so many other circumstances so each annual earning will be different m. First application was a mistake and was my first time doing it hence silly mistakes were made, I wish I seeked help then but I was scared of these deceptive agents. I don’t know what else the eco wants as we provided every documents pertaining to her job and her bank statement showing multiple business transactions from customers with receipts and invoices for 6 months. Last refusal was in November and she intends trying again September.

Mrmoney90:


Omo, make Una no Dey complicate things for Una selves. First she apply as employed with an annual earning of 5 million. Barely few months later, she applied as self-employed with annual earning of 15 million. Make Una try stay one place. Reapplying again will be tantamount to refusal.

You guys need to chill for sometime before thinking of reapplying again.

How much was she paying herself monthly from her business? A business earning and making profit should be able to remit salary. I believe that part was missing.

Again no proper research done about the place you plan to visit, which is not a major tourist location for a first time traveler. Owing to the fact that she has never embarked on any foreign travels before.

Lastly funds in her account that did not connect to what she stated in her application. Probably since she stated employed and self employed, nothing to show that situation is as she stated

Hello, my mum is self employed and works in a sawmill, she has two Bedford trucks and workers and she makes about 15m annually and she uses her personal account. We never applied as employed and both application her business documents were submitted! We provided her tax documents, receipts, registered business documents, sawmill bills, trucks documents and all that. She chose Birmingham cos we heard it’s cheaper. First time the application was made, the question about how much she makes annually was misunderstood as profit she makes from her job. Then second application we realised they actually meant how much does she earn from the job in total but what I failed to do was address it in the cover letter. We provided bank statement showing transactions from different customers with descriptions and also receipt to back it up. My mum uses her personal account for business so her customers and clients pay into her account when making purchase. It’s hard to determine how much she makes annually as each year is different. By the way to avoid other mistake, is her annual income the profit she makes or how much in total she gets from customers.

Good morning gurus, I need your help please. My mum has been refused twice for tourism, first reason was because the money she mentioned she would be spending during visit was about 80 percent of her annual salary. A silly mistake and a misunderstanding . Then we applied the second time again increasing the annual salary and reducing amount to be spend for trip of course she was refused again. I would be attaching both refusals below. Now she’d like to apply for the third time and I’ll be adding an itinerary, spreadsheet explaining her annual income and receipts as well and also another cover letter. What else can we add as I don’t want to miss anything this time.

VISA ALERT!!

Thanks to everyone that answered my enquiry since I joined this platform this month, I finally got my visa this morning glory be to God, see you all in youkay!

Timeline was like this:

Biometrics: 29th December, 2022 priority ikeja
Escalated 6th of January, and 17th of January after hearing nothing at all from UKVI.
Decision mail 22nd with decision made from 19th
Moved to VAC and Collection mail, 26th
Passport collected this with morning with vignette sitting pretty.

Two UK EUSS refusal declared and the most recent one august,2022. No interview, no NSF. God is truly faithful🥺🙏🏾

Justpat:
This UKVI people, I always knew they had technical or Administrative lapses.

After I got a decision letter since 22nd Jan and they finally sent my passport yesterday. This morning they sent me another decision/BRP Letter showing decision was made on 24th . In the first letter decision was made on 19th January. Both letters have different date of expiration of my BRP....

I will carry the two letters go and give them...lol

Imagine, they probably meant the visa was processed that day cos I was told when I made a paid call my visa was processed 24th and decision was made 19th.

Justpat:


yes I received at exactly 5:16pm today and then courier mail followed few minutes later. So I am expecting to pick up at DHL office tomorrow by Gods grace.......

Congratulations. Picking mine up tomorrow too!.

Justpat:


Hello

Lebanon does not require a transit visa. You can go ahead and book as a number of people have reported using the airline in recent times

Hi justpat, have you received your collection mail yet?

Justpat:


Congrats . Same with me. Maybe it's same flight both of us will fly to UK ...lol.

We thank God

Haha yes ooo😂

Ayomidelabaeka5:


Yes I did, but I called DMC and the lady told my my visa was just processed yesterday 24th so it will take few days to get to me. Hopefully by Friday as I have to travel on Sunday

Hi guys, just an update, my tracker just moved to received by vac this morning, will be going ti ikeja very soon and providing an update.

jhorjhor:
Wow. Really appreciate the response bro

You’re welcome but I be woman o lol

jhorjhor:
Thanks so much.

1) Initial deposit sum
2) POF before issuing CAS?
3) Any discount on fee?
4) Accept Waec?

1.Initial deposit is 3k pounds
2.Yes you need proof of fund before cas and also precas interview would be conducted.
3. Yes, 1500 pounds I got on mine
4. Yes they accept waec but cos mine was from 2011 I had to also back it up with an English proficiency letter from my employer I work as a teacher and I teach my students in English language.

Justpat:


Well done for your feed back. when you say you called DMC. is it the regular paid call? or you had some other contact.

My guess is that whatever is delaying the movement of our passport to VAC is happening at the British High Commission (Lagos or Abuja) where the printing is done.

Its unfortunate we don't much we can do other than pray and have faith. my deadline for arrival is Monday 30th January (thats the last extension they agreed for me personally)

How can they process a dependant and leave out main applicant. Dont they check the deadlnes on CAS?

Hi, yes it’s the normal paid call, the delay is definitely from people printing visa as DMC has done their part and asked for our visas to be stamped on our passports. All we can do is wait and hope for Gods miracle we can all meet the deadline which is 30th.

badassProdigy:
plz help with the number u called?

+44 300 790 6268, but you’d need a bank card.

badassProdigy:
dis is really serious

I was about to buzz u sef. but did u meet people wit similar issue there?

Yes I did, but I called DMC and the lady told my my visa was just processed yesterday 24th so it will take few days to get to me. Hopefully by Friday as I have to travel on Sunday

badassProdigy:
VI?

plz keep me posted on any way forward u hear

I just left ikeja, I have been told my passport isn’t ready, I need a miracle right now as I have changed my ticket 3 times and I need to travel this weekend

jhorjhor:
Anyone with knowledge on Uni of Wolverhampton?

What do you need to know? That’s my school

imhopeful:
Hi,

Once you have your BRP email, I will recommend if you are not to far from TLS center, try walk-in. There is definately glitch in the communication/flow recently.

Eg: @Justpat, I have someone who got BRP same day as you and has picked up passport earlier today, give it a try

That’s why I’m going tomorrow regardless of no collection mail. Decision since 19th, no reason for DMC to hold my passport again na. And I have to travel this weekend Abeg.

dotedote:
Hello House.
I just tracked my application now after receiving a collection mail and I saw that it's jumped from Received by DMC to Received at VAC
Went for biometrics with the MA (wifey) last week Monday (16th January) whose BRPmail came in on Sunday.

Can a dependant's collection mail drop before the MA's ? (without it being a refusal case)

Please what should I expect please ?

No one knows what you can expect, only way you can know is to go and collect your passport. Just be positive, I believe you’d receive a refusal letter in your mail if it was refused. If it isn’t there, then it has been approved. Congratulations in advance.

badassProdigy:
VI?

plz keep me posted on any way forward u hear

I’m going there tomorrow so I would keep you updated.

badassProdigy:
same here too, decision since 13th, got brp mail 18th. still at DMC on tracker

which Centre is urs?

Ikeja o, how about yours?

Hello house, please when should I be expecting collection mail? I got brp mail 22nd with decision made 19th. My school has given me till 30th to resume and I got a ticket for 28th already so I need to travel this weekend. Can someone answer me please. Should I go to VAC even if the tracker still shows at DMC? I would appreciate any response.

Justpat:


Hello

Has your tracker moved to Received by VAC or Passport Collected by Applicant?

Mine hasn’t, got brp mail yesterday and decision made 19th. When should we be expecting collection mail?

@dduchess90

Good morning ma, I finally got my brp mail early this morning and decision was made 19th. I’m so grateful for all your help. God has done it!

Biometrics at tls ikeja 29th of December, Priority. No NSF, No interview and no refusal. Baba God I thank you o.

dduchess90:
Hello

It means your application has been assessed, chase up by Monday to confirm if a decision has been made

You might get the BRP mail or collection mail together or before eachother. Collection mail is from TLS end, it seems they are overwhelmed at the moment


When are you supposed to resume studies? Hope you are keeping your Uni informed


Cheers

Hello ma, thank you so much for your response, my school is resuming 23rd but they’ve given me till 30th to resume. Yes I am keeping my uni informed and they are very helpful along with my Department. Hopefully will get brp mail and collection mail soon. I will chase up with them on Monday to confirm decision made. Thanks once again.

@dduchess90

Good evening ma’am, I submitted my application 29th of December at ikeja priority, I didn’t receive any emails from ukvi except the apology emails after multiple escalations. I got a cas used email from my school this morning, does this mean decision has been made, and how soon should I be expecting a collection mail? Thank you in advance.

dduchess90:
Hello

Escalation usually means the attention of the ECO will be brought to your application

Chase by Friday if you don't get an update, also let your Uni be aware of these delays


Cheers

Thanks for your response, I will. Hopefully it won’t get to Friday again o

@dduchess90
Please do you know how long it takes to get a decision after getting a response from Sheffield student team escalation application is getting worked on? Does that mean decision soon? I did biometrics 29th at ikeja, Priority but I haven’t heard anything since then. I haven’t even gotten any NSF which I’m happy about but I’m just wondering why it’s taking time. I got the escalation email 12th of January and still awaiting decision. Please advise as my school is resuming 23rd of this month.

Tboy243:
I am telling you. Yours is even better. We did ours since 7th December, 2022.. though MA did an interview and got an empty NSF afterwards, but till now, nothing, we made a paid mail enquiry, they said awaiting a decision. We did a follow-up email they said its been escalated and we should wait to be contacted in 15working days... It's so frustrating and tiring, but I know that it's gonna be worth the wait and we'd smile at the end of the day, God Willing, let's keep the faith and hope alive.

Wow it is well o. All we can do is wait. God would crown all our efforts and we’d all get our visas by Gods grace. Amen ��
