"NOTE"
While this note posted was January 16th, the updated notE which is same thing was January 21st

The note indicates that the intial visa officer found the applicant’s case convincing based on financial resources, ties to their home country, and the purpose of the visit. The visa was approved. However, the "Entered in Error" label might be an internal administrative detail which calls for review of the application. Restricted: N – The note is not restricted, meaning it's accessible and waiting for review by another senior experienced officer.

The probability that you will get the visa is very high if you package the visa application well.

Make sure you upload both current and expired visas
Okay, thank you very much. I had to cancel the application because it was 9 months earlier to the proposed travel date.

While working on his, i decided to apply, let me not put much of his info out there.

I just appplied paid and submitted 6 months Visa in the process of applying for my bro, coz he said he would pay for me. So i was refused in 2017 twice back to back in three weeks my boss at work then was the acclaimed agent. The in 2019 i was refused again. But after then inhave had 3 Us visas including the latest expiring 2029, own a house and rentals too, earn 650k, have valid schengen, canada and other visas a wife and 4 kids and an investment generating 1,200k Quarterly. My brother and family works there so he sent me me an invitation. I plan to go days b4 Christmas. I had about 4.6m closing at on my statement. But added the investment statement from my bank as well. Please what do you advise. I can still cancel mine if there are recommendations.
Thegamingorca:
Nah your cousin's case is one for the good books. Ppl years from now would comb through these hallowed pages to seek knowledge on UK travel. We shouldn't deprive them therefore of this amazing discuss, if you get my meaning.

TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by biggybanking: 11:19pm On Apr 03, 2024
Thank you very much. There are some personal underlying issues that I noticed i can give you specifics in Cam.
Thegamingorca:
I'm the one who should be apologising grin.
His visa refusal in 2004 is rather insignificant. It's been 20 years. Usually when one has travelled so well like this rather than ask them questions first hand, you could try to flip through his collection of passports (assuming he kept them).

But all the same he has a strong case. The mere fact he was awarded a 10 years visa which he did not use to stay in the UK for an extended period after it's expiration is reason to be given another visa even without (I dare say) a bank statement grin
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by biggybanking: 11:15pm On Apr 03, 2024
If you can hear me out, i can still share with you a clearer picture more in private. If you wish to.

Thegamingorca:
Sorry about that. I can see the honesty now.
I really hate agents that's why I replied you that way. If you still want help although you've already submitted, I'll be more than happy to help
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by biggybanking: 10:55pm On Apr 03, 2024
Agents messed me up in the past i dislike them with passion. I'm sorry for my choice of words, however i don't like people saying what they dont know. I Vowed never to use them or see anyone use them let alone someone in the Family. Way older. The only Visas I don't have personally is probably Australia and that's because i don't fancy it. This my bro was mad at me that i was asking so much things. To the extent he said i should forget a certain US refusal he had in 2004 because he is not sure of the year. I just needed like a confirmation for what i had already done before requesting for his details to pay and upload or probably adjust his Application. I personally dont like UK visa Application because the financial part. So I'm sorry
Thegamingorca:
Attaboy! So you've paid and submitted yourself already huh!
I guess his application is in God's hands now grin

grin One more question tho, are you still playing the role of the cousin or his agent right about now grin grin grin

Brok like I am so surprised at the level of thinking. Someone from a good home that started traveling from his 200 level days. Been buying pta at 145 naira to a dollar. Cant even remember half of his trip. I personally have suffered because he can't even furnish me with information coz his was just to travel. So I don't get where this energy is coming from. I am more conversant with applications and very detailed. I saw some loopholes that may not really count but I'm trying to fix his record's now since he has a house, a job he secured after the last visa issued in 2013 that expired last year.and all. An it is an offence to help someone who was even telling me he wants to go and pay his visa fee at the application centre. A lot have changed bro.

HRprof:
Is possible he has been using agents to process visa all this while. Don’t jump into conclusions
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by biggybanking: 6:39pm On Apr 03, 2024
He knows nothing about visa Application, he started traveling right from university days to the US and UK.on the other hand I process all my applications excpet UK that i have never visited.

Thegamingorca:
Why are you the one applying for him?

TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by biggybanking: 8:13am On Apr 03, 2024
I mentioned clearly he is into real estate, forex trading, he has personal clients. When you manage rental properties, you get commission when ever rents are paid or a property is sold. Are you clear now?

Thanks bro.

Yes, please. This is just an auto-generated email.

You will later receive an email from IRCC notifying you that the docs you submitted have been attached to your application to be viewed by the VO that would be reviewing your application. This email may come between 24hrs to 2weeks depending on the volume of webform they received.

Hi Guys, I have a visit visa to Canada and my invitation letter states that I will be coming in August, is it appropriate for me to travel before the stated monthly of travel , hope it won't be an issue at the port of entry ??

Anticipating responses , thanks.
For the 1st travel if its for a specific purpose like a wedding, graduation or any other event, it is safer to wait till the date or after the date of the event stated on the invitation. You might pass without an issue but we want to avoid any form of suspicious activities.

I was to go for my sister’s graduation in october but didn't make it. I went 7 months later. If i was going earlier like July, i think there would be percieved desperation.
