Thanks please is it payment slip of change of name or renewal of passport. The passport will expire in April 2024

Good day, I just got married although I have a passport that will expire in April, how can I apply for change of name on the passport. Can I renew the passport and do change of name the same time

Bukolaolamipo:
Ok dear

Please where do I pay the administrative charge of 35k? Is it on NIS website and will I also pay for the application fee for passport also

Bukolaolamipo:
When you're changing your name ,you must first of all make sure the new name is what you have on your NIN ,before going to apply for a new international passport,both agencies share database that's why the moment there is an issue with your NIN, automatically you'll have Issues processing your passport.
Apply for Change of name on international passport, certain documents are required and you have to pay an administrative charges of 35k,for NIN you have to pay 15k remitta fees for change of details on NIN and whatever additional fees the NIMC center charges you, it'll be on the high side if it's a private one but if it's a government Nimc center like the ones you can find in your local government secretariat,then the charges would be lesser although both centers can charge very high if you want it ASAP

Thanks for the reply. I have done the nimc change to my husband name, and also done the news paper publications and court affividate

Wisdom7400:
Please when did she have her biometrics and when did she get the refusal letter?

16/10/2023 and get it via mail

Cashmadam:
Sorry about the refusal.

My thoughts:

1. When it comes to visa applications, it is always better to be precise. I noticed she 'rounded" up her monthly salary. It might look insignificant but when your case worker is looking for a reason to refuse your application, the insignificant becomes significant

2. Monthly salary of N319K plus is too low. That is the fact.

3. No savings? That was a disaster waiting to happen

4. With her monthly salary, no saving and no other source of income, the only option left is to have a sponsor. Even that does not guarantee approval

5. In my humble opinion, your sister simply cannot afford to travel to the UK at this time. She should not waste her money and time to reapply for now until her financial status improves or she has a credible sponsor.

Perharps others can share their thoughts.

Thanks for the response. When she reapply in Dec or Jan. By then she said would have had a sponsor and also due for increament in salary this oct.

My sister have just be refuse uk visa want can she do when she reply again


I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the
requirements of paragraph(s) 4.2 of Appendix V: Immigration Rules of visitors because:
• You have applied to visit the United Kingdom for 10 days for a family visit. In
assessing your application. I have considered the information provided, your
personal and financial circumstances and the credibility of your trip in the context of
its timing and your stated intentions.
• You state that you are employed by *******''***as a
Marketing Manager earning 320,000.00 NGN (340.93 GBP) per month. I
acknowledge you have provided employment letters and payslips in support of your
application. Having examined the payslips submitted however, I note a discrepancy
in the total earnings amount stated and the net amount after deductions. The
document states total earnings of 355,500.00 NGN less total deductions 35,540.00
NGN which does not amount to 320,000.00 NGN but to 319,960.00 NGN. This
discrepancy undermines the overall credibility of your application. I am therefore not
satisfied that you are employed or remunerated as stated.
• Furthermore, in your application you state you have no other savings and no one
else is contributing towards the cost of your trip. You state that you intend to
personally spend 1,700,000.00 NGN (1811.20 GBP) on your visit as declared. I note
that this amounts to more than five times your monthly income. I am not satisfied this
form of expenditure is proportionate to your circumstances as stated nor am I
satisfied of your intentions and whether you will leave at the end of your proposed
trip.
• Given the above, I am not satisfied that you are genuinely seeking entry as a visitor
and that you intend to leave the UK at the end of your visit. Your application is
therefore refused under paragraph’s V 4.2 (a) and (c) of the Immigration Rules.
Rate of exchange 1 GBP = 938.606 NGN reference www.oanda.com on 20/10/2023

This is from a Nairalander (skentelelady). It should help.
"I explained earlier under her post. She only needs affirmation of name from high court not notorised. Then go before her capturing date with documents that carry the right names and arrangement. They will then do verification and capturing same day. I did both verification and capturing same day at shagamu.

The issue of wrong DOB was sorted with email sent to servicon thru one of the officer I we met there for a token. This was rectified b fore our capturing date too"

Thanks but she had not capture before

dvdami:
Just go any other day after the appointment date, you will be attended to.

Thanks also their is an error on her name instead of Rasheed she wrote Resheed how can that be corrected

Please how can I reschedule my appointment for capturing at Alausa ikeja. My sister missed her appointment date. I try to check online it was telling me it not available for the center. As anyone be in that condition

Kennie28:
I don't think so oo

So after you book for yourself in category b so you now book for family reunion separately for you baby? I am correct.

Kennie28:
I just called the Consulate they said the visa for my child is Family reunion

So after you book category B for yourself then you went ahead and book family reunion for your baby. Will the appointment date fall on the same day.

MrAAA2:
As family reunion perhaps.
On the day of the mother's interview, both applications will be submitted for appropriate consideration.

But the mother will need a very convincing motivation letter and CV.

So while she is filling category b for herself she is book family reunion for the baby. Will the embassy give them appointment date together?

MrAAA2:
Then do that.

But what if
I really do not know.

So under which category should the baby appointment be

MrAAA2:
It's just an appointment. Book for 2.
Your child will need a separate visa application form anyway.

If she book category B for herself has a student, what will she book for the baby and under which category

ekitimanalways:
Let her apply again and pay another application fee.
She had paid the application fee before the error was discovered?

Apply again ke? Where do you expect her to see money. She had already paid

Please my sister make an error while filling her application form she made a mistake in her surname , although she has not captured how can this be corrected

MrAAA2:
THD-Deggendorf will commence charging up to 500 Eur as semester fees. Consider this if need be.

From 2024/2025 academic session. But currently enrol international students are not affected

MrAAA2:
Cat B.

Did you read the info on the embassy's website?

What application will i fill for my son

I want to apply for msc in Germany next year but I am thinking of bringing my baby along under which category will i book. Also I am using SL . Although my husband is schooling in Germany also.

Can I apply for student visa and bring my baby along with me

Hello , it seems their are no available date for US tourist visa I can see available dates

EDeedee1:
Processing time for visit visa for nigeria is now more than a year. It is well o

407 days

Mrmoney90:
Ok you earn 280k and you spend 100k as part of your monthly living expenses, which leaves your disposable income at 180k. Multiplying 180k by 3 months, you have 540k as disposable income. That’s a good one.

Now how much does your wife spend monthly as part of her contribution? And how much does she earn? With that you can be able to calculate total cost of your trip. And she needs to add her bank statement as well, regardless of you being the chief sponsor

She earn 200k after tax

Mrmoney90:
It depends on your travel expenses and how much you earn monthly, as your total cost of trip should not exceed 3 times your disposable income. Your account balance should just be sufficient enough. There is no specific amount per say, but let’s just say 5 million balance should do

I earn 280k after tax. Can my wife also summit her own acct statement also

Mrmoney90:
Well, as long as you are financially capable of sponsoring the trip, then you can go ahead. Your job/business should be a proof of ties too

What can my closing balance be although no plan of lumps amount of money

Mrmoney90:
Unfortunately that won’t suffice. The UKVI isn’t dumb that they would even consider that transfer of property thing few days to your application. Instead, you can include family photos with your parents.

Since you operate a POS business and also have such funds deposited in your salary account, it would have been better the funds from the POS business goes into a separate account from the salary account. But since that’s not the case, you would have to explain why it is so, and also differentiate which transaction is your salary and which is from POS. Quite hard though.

Lastly, why are you going to the Uk? And who is sponsoring?

I am sponsoring myself going with my wife as a tourist for 1week

Good day all, I want to apply for uk tourist visa, can my parents transfer their landed property to me to stand as home ties how what is the process , and also I operate a pos business can I use the agent account since is the account I use in collecting my salary

giselle237:
no

Thanks , meaning I should just summit my normal 6 month bank statement with supporting documents
