IntroVAT: Hello All...

Please do I need a sponsor letter? My sister is my sponsor. My fees have already been paid. My maintenance money has been held in my account, in my own name, even though she supplied all the funds.

I want to know if I need a letter from her stating she's the one going to sponsor me for the duration of my studies? Should she also send financial documents, like her own bank statements?

I had thought that the maintenance money held in my own name would have been sufficient proof of financial independence

Pls a quick response is appreciated

Cc justwise spikesC

Once you have the whole maintenance money held in your own account under your own name for 28 days then you dont need any other document

royal34:


initially i wanted to use a deposit acc statement but since someone on this thread said they dont accept it or sth along those lines, i then decided to use a current acc but i dont think ild be denied visa just cos im using two bank statements. if anything, it adds to my chances, should the money in my current acc not be enough due to the fluctuation in exchange rate.

I can testify to these 2 bank statement things,please if you dont want to give yourself long thing kindly use one bank account because i used 2 and it caused confusion and my visa was refused then i had to reapply again with one statement before i got an approval email.
So my brother or sister kindly use one statement ohhhhhhhhh

Oga Justwise just gave you the link of the guidance for dependent visa application so please read it and know how it should be done. Some of the required docs are:
Intnl. Passport
2 passport photographs
Bank Statement (if not sponsored)
Proof of Dependant address
Proof of Relatonship
Proof of Student's visa and enrolment in Uni.
Proof of accommodation in UK (if with dependant, landlord should write a letter granting your stay)
...
Please read through the guidance for ALL you need to know so as to make an excellent application

My oga pls about the proof of accomodation,is it okay if i send my tenancy agreement to her? thats if i rent a 1 bedroom flat from an agent and do i have to put her name on the tenancy agreement or just tenancy agreement to show that i have a house that i can accomodate her in uk?.
Secondly pls what kind of proof of address does the dependent need bcuz we stay together in lagos and we have received couple of uk visa together before. pls respond sir

DonOms:

If you've paid for UPS, it may not be advisable to send your wife to travel to Abuja to get it. The reason is because you might miss the package especially if UKVI doesn't mail you. Your package may have been dispatched before your wife gets there. Personally, I'd advice you let UPS bring it to Lagos but track it and call them and then go to the Lagos landing hub to collect it.

Not at all. I will always stay in a hotel or B&B for couple days when I arrive, and proactively hunt for nearby accomodations. Some landlords with accomodations nearby Unis mostly use local estate agents to advertise their property. At most, I may stay about 15 mins walk away from where you take lectures. Some Unis have good Uni bus system for such student about 15 mins away...

WOW.because i wanted to get a studio apartment before when i get to Birmingham because my wife will be coming next month to join me and after checking online then i get to know that one bedroom flat price mostly are the same price with studio.
I just need good advice about all these things because i dont wanna do something that will regret at the end
