They re unemployed and I don't think they have any property in their names which is why I'm sponsoring. Will that hinder his application? And do you reckon that 3 months bank statement and payslip will do the job or do I need to go back 6 months?
yes its very important at least in my cousins case it was

They got to be kidding me. Then i have to write to the BHC
Lol chill please. its just speculations, they forget to return some documents too sometimes, like the last application they took out my sisters secondary school testimonial probably thinking it was a letter from the school to them. Maybe just maybe they took out yours mistakenly. So calm down. if it was fake they would have written something about doubting the credibility of the document.

For those that picked up their application, was any of your docs withheld? Coz my acct stmt wasn't returned to me huh
I think they only keep fake documents. Everyone i know that was refused at one time or the other got all their documents back. The few people i know that didnt get their docs back, statement of account, and employment letters, those documents were fake. Except things have changed now

IV from you stating he/she ll be on vacation with you. That you ll be financially responsible for the trip (Remember to include where and what you do for a living).
Your utility bill
Bank statement.
your Pay slips
Copy of your international passport.

A letter from his/her parents stating there consent for the vacation with you.

A letter from his/her school principal that he/she ll be on vacation around that time and that he planned to spend the holiday abroad with you will be a good plus.
his/her last report card from school is also good.

my Niece and Nephew both 14 years got un 'unaccompanied child visa' with this.
Piper4all also add their parents employment details and bank statements, property documents too.

Transfer the money into her account for easy verification
Just in case any international student is in a similar situation;

I asked a few questions here on behalf of the sister back in november, she ended up not applying as she had to be home in december,she only just put in her application few weeks back, and she got her visa today. (she applied in the us)

Docs submitted;
admission letter
scanned letter from her international student office
tuition receipts for 4 semesters and next semester tuition housing and meals paid in advance
Results Deans list
scanned invitation letter, tax, mortgage and statement from my aunt and another letter stating that the documents are valid and she had to scan it as she couldnt find anyone to send them through and she doesn't feel comfortable putting it in the mail.
Scanned Nigerian statement of account and letter of sponsorship from dad
Her Gtb bank statement with 0 balance but a lot of credit plus her american account with 150usd balance but cash deposits.,

He decided not to send her the money after he saw her on IG looking all glam. make she no go spend am.

Not the first application tho. but i'll advise first timers to put original copies of documents only.

Than you JW

Oh thanks for the info, with the information you have given me I have just search from the website of Turkish foreign affairs and finds out that they no longer give visa on arrival to Nigerians, how ever we can apply online for what they call "e-visa" before our travel, my layover is about 6 hours, and the airline has a free tourism service for all interested passengers having at least 6 hours layover...sims like i will apply for the so called e-visa.
your welcome. good luck

Hi, thanks for your response...please I need more clarification about the visa on arrival or applying online. I intend to use this airline and will be paying probably later today...as a Nigerian do I need Visa to transit through Istanbul Artaturk airport?
I got visa on arrival in early 2012, conditions are you having a valid UK European American or canadian Visas, but seeing as that was three years ago, i don't know if they cancelled it now or not, please confirm from the airline and/or embassy. And this transit visa is only useful if you intend to leave the airport.

For the free hotel, Do you have over 10hours layover? if you do you may qualify, pleasecall to ask. We didn't qualify for free hotel because there was an earlier connecting flight but they (immigration) asked to see at least 200$ for all four of us because we didnt book a hotel.

Hello and good day everyone...

Please has anybody here used Turkish Airlines for his/her travel to Canada? Or has anyone knows how good this Airline is? Please share your experience about traveling with them...
turkish air is amazing. used them one time to the uk. if u have a long stopover you might get a free hotel. not sure if visa on arrival still works for Nigerians, so you might have to apply online.

I applied June 3rd, I got the passport back on 22nd June. The passports had been stamped since 12th June ( I waited 20 long days, anxiety almost consumed me angry ). If Ikeja is faster, it might worth paying the 18k.


Goodluck!
Thanks for replying..and 21 days, that's the standard. i get why people say tp VI is slower than Ikeja, it took 8 days after your visa was issued while Ikeja applicants get to pick up a day after. guess that explains the 18k.

Did you wait for the teleperformance site to get updated or you just went there to pick up?

Ralphlauren:
that sums it up then @ bolded.

better than people claiming all visas are processed at Abuja or all applications submitted at VI are sent to/processed at Sheffield.

i just reconfirmed with my relative. she submitted my application at the VI office - guess that explains (maybe) why her application was processed within 2days and she was informed by a direct email from BHC Lagos before the followup email from teleperformance.
I dont know if the process has changed but what i was told in 2012 was that if its your first time of if you haven't traveled to the UK in the last 2 years, then its Abuja, the frequent and recent travelers gets processed in Lagos which explains the red and black bags, though right now i cant remember which bag goes to Lagos or Abuja.

Hello House,

I went to pick up my visa n my baby's today and guess what? We were granted visa! Thanks to evry1 that dropped comments on this thread. They were all helpful, God bless you all!


what I (believe) did to have a successful application?

I read through all the posts on this thread*- from 2011-till date; highlighted why some visas were granted and why some were not. Then I noted comments from all the Nairalanders esp. Justwise, Omo tier 1, Vicjustice etc. Then, I applied, even though I still made some mistakes but I guess they were overlooked by ECO( I learnt that word frm this forum , I still dont know the full meaning but I know it is synonymous to "Grant or refuse that Visa"wink.


My advise to guys that are about to ask questions on UK visa applications esp. visit visa; Pls read through the previous comments on this thread, most (if not all) of the questions have been answered IN DETAILS.

I hope this makes sense to the house. Goodluck to those that are about to submit applications and those awaiting response!
hi when did u apply when did u get your passport back? Just trying to see if paying 18k at Ikeja is worth it seeing as it takes 5 working days.

iamblisz:
thanks, I just bought benzene peroxide yesterday and they said I should use it with olay, pls where can I get that olay? how abt eating oil food does it affect it? and if it does most of the food we eat nowadays contains oil, what do I do?
benzoyl peroxide will make u darker at least for me it did. And premature ageing. I dont recommend using it longterm. If you have casabella in a mall where u live u can buy from there. If not theres a seller on konga that I buy from she sells at 5k delivery 500naira. Sorry I dont remember her store name.
Its calked olay regenerist regenerating serum.

sorry for typos.

and about food, the only thing that I think contributed to my acne is milk.(chocolates milo icecreametc none) Which I stopped taking for two years and only started taking little again. I did an elimination diet. Like one week totally pig out on dairy sugar drinks oily food gnut etc and watch your skin for three weeks. Note that even if you get acne the next day, after u eat something. It might not be as a result of the food, it takes about 3 weeks for a pimple to form. So the pimple u have today isvas a result of something you did or ate three weeks ago. Thats why they usually tell you to give a product 4 to 6 weeks to work.

You can get retin a from med plus. But you need to be patient 0. But if u can wait it out your skin will be flawless eventually. If your are still braking out after 2 or 3 months dump it.

Buy sebamed clear face foaming cleanser about 1500 and olay regenerist serum, goes for 5000, in 2 weeks u will see a difference. Im not saying it will clear it off completely in 2 weeks o. After 4 months the spots on my face had blended in almost completely with my skin. Im still on it. Though I still get breakouts before my period but it heals FAST like in less than a week and the spot clears off quickly too.

you can also get the sebamed clear face toner, I only used it for a month before I stopped because I felt I didnt need it any more. It reduces the oil on ur face. It has alcohol but not drying at all.

also, change ur pillowcase everyday,
do not use any scrub until u no longer have any inflamed pimple on ur face
do not pick, do not rub do not touch. HANDS OFF COMPLETELY. Its hard trust me, but u must try. And u face will get smoother ull be temped to touch every single time.

Pls do not, I repeat do not use any form of bleaching cream on your face especial mixed cream. It will take you a thousand steps back. Your acne will get worse trust me. Back when my acne was not bad, just teenage acne, I had a few black spots which I thought was a lot back then and only on my forehead and very little on my cheek. Somebody sold me a cream mix to use on my acne, very tiny tub it only lasted 2 weeks trust me my skin was flawless but it was lightening my face so I decided to stop. The type of big pimples that hit my face afterwards, I thought I was cursed and my face became darker than it was before i started using the cream from hell. I battled this for close to two years before it eventually settled. So please do not make the same mistake I made.
