Hi, please when was your biometrics, mine is 21st dependent and no news yet.

Lifeisgoody:

Thanks so much famz

Sorry about that, you can reduce your budget and reapply, when was your biometrics done?

Soft42k:
Good morning to you all, i received a refusal letter this morning. I'm not pleased with the decision. I want to reapply immediately i get back my passport.

Congratulations, is your submission ikeja, VI or Abuja ?

theGodson:
Visa approved

thread was useful in putting in application

Biometrics - 18th June
email to come pick up - 7th July
Picked - 8th

I created a table to explain funds inflow over a threshold in my account.

thanks all.

Hello, did they receive pick up notification? I got a call from Ukvi on 30th, biometric was 17 June, no mail at all, tracking from tls shows still at DMC.I opted to pick up myself

nadesh:
My family friends submitted at ikeja June 17th, passports and visas were delivered yesterday.
Tracking app is still showing at decision making center

Give them a call tomorrow, they ll tell youif a decision has been made or not , if not they ll send a message to them over there to take a look, not all applicants are called. Hope for the best

Sidaissystems:
I did mine 08 June I didn't hear anything concerning it up till now

June 17

Sidaissystems:
when did you do your biometric Sir ?

Just like you, I was called Today and asked almost same set of questions, I wasn’t expecting the call though.

Omokas2:
I was called today. I applied as self-employed thy asked what is my role in my company,what is the name of my company how much I received,when am I traveling,how much is the hotel I booked cost.where and where am I to visit,how many days I intend to stay in the UK

My biometrics was submitted 7th April , whenever I escalate my case, the next day I get this and I instantly do as requested by sending a mail requesting for them to call me but the thing is they never call me. I don’t know what else to do about this. I called their customer service they said they are not incharge of such calls. Has anyone had any issues relating to this, please advice.

Asking for someone: Has anyone experienced getting refusal email and one week later passport not returned for collection. The refusal says he wasn’t able to provide some information over the phone interview done, just that reason alone. So one week and no passport collection notification and tracking still says at Decision center

Sorry bro, I thought it would be easier for you considering you already got one previously, anyway you can correct the reason for refusal and reapply immediately

kunzzy4me:
I just receieve my refusal letter today ..

Post your refusal letter let the gurus advice you, without that you won’t be getting any clear advice.

NiggaRoy22:
Hello house..plz I was refuse with my daughter....just few days ago and I wish to apply again,plz when can I do that?thanks I mean how soon can I apply again?

My application still haven’t been decided, I am the guy that was refused because of covid as all places was closed then. So I reapplied, April 7th biometrics was done, up till today no words. I called today and was told no decision made yet, the customer service lady escalated it. Applied from Victoria island.

What was the reason for refusal, if you don’t mind post it let the gurus advice you.

NiggaRoy22:
I got a mail today ...but it was refused

Since you used an agent to apply, I believe he did not use your email for the application, just walk up to TLS VI and pick your passport up. Did you received the transfer email from tls previously when you applied ? Also did you receive the acknowledgment email from Uk, either way just go to VI and pick your passport, let us know the outcome.

NiggaRoy22:
Hello everybody ...somebody plz explain to me,I track my application and it says is ready for collecting at the TLS office but not yet get a e-Mai ...does it mean I can walk up to the office on Monday and collect it or I should wait till it i get a message from them?thanks

My brother got a call from them Too, have you gotten back your passport ? What’s was the outcome ?

owee:
Morning Guys. Has anyone here got a call from the embassy before with respect to his/her application? Appears they wanted to know why the applicant wanted to travel in the midst of a pandemic with a need to quarantine for 10 days....

Congrats!. Was it Lagos or Abuja?

Ih123:
Hi everyone

Just want to say thank you for all the help on this platform.

I got my visa in 3 days. I paid for priority last week Thursday and collected my passport today. I've been denied Visa to France (Lol) before. I got 2 years Visa . I was sponsored by my dad (as a birthday present) even though I currently work and have over 10,000 GBP in my salary savings account.

What I did was to attach my proof of employment,pay slip, salary statement, ID card and then my father wrote a letter of financial support which I got notarized.

I also explained that I would like to travel now since uk is gradually easing off restrictions and that I would quarantine for 5 days with the test to release option.

Is it Lagos ? I think you should call UKVI to know what is going on with your application

NiggaRoy22:
I did it last month 8th of April.it a vist visa I did it with my baby

When was your biometrics and what type of visa did you apply for?

NiggaRoy22:
please help me..is there a time frame for discussion for a Uk vist visa it been 5weeks I did my Biometric and I have not hear from them ...what should I do thanks

This should be your hotel booking or contact you want to stay with.

Mercydecy:
hello house, i just got my passport back since december and the application was refused, reason states “ provided incorrect contact details “
please what does that mean

I have experienced this, what I did was create another profile and make another payment which was successful immediately, then I called Uk contact from their platform and cancelled the former, it took 2 days after they requested my account, I got the dollar from world pay as the sender. Good luck

Fisaejiw:
Hello
Pls house I need your help
I paid for my friend’s visa application 124,615
The account started showing payment pending
I made the payment through PAGA
I contacted PAGA the next day and they said it takes about 7-9 working days to get a confirmation from UKVI
We needed to make that payment ASAP
My friend had to open another account and the payment was made through BARTERWAVE
In less than a minute she got a confirmation mail
I kept messaging PAGA and they kept telling me they were in touch with their partners in order to get details of the transaction
PAGA mailed me 10 days later with a receipt that the transaction has been successfully made
I was asked to contact UKVI for more clarification
I tried searching online for their contact
I didn’t see anything
I went to TLS in Lagos, they said they are not in charge
It’s been 3 weeks now
The page is still stuck on payment pending
I’m yet to be refunded my money
I’m frustrated and I don’t know what to do
Pls help pls

My application was made before the lock down, I have now written both complaints emails. Got an automated message to wait for 20 working days, Atleast this refusal is better than waiting endlessly with no response. I ll keep the house posted if any progress. Otherwise I will reapply later after the lockdown. Thanks to everyone

Thanks a million

giselle237:
Just apply when all of this is over or probably if you are going to see a friend or a family member. The refusal u got is straight forward, since the purpose of ur trip is touristing, and the places are closed, there is no reason to grant u visa for THIS reason u mentioned.
I am sure at your next application and hopefully COVID is over, then u will be approved

Got a refusal letter, what I submitted
6 month savings statement: 7M+
Business account balance: 4M+ over 400M inflow
Property docs etc
Salary : 1,150M monthly
Spend: approximately 300k monthly
They said tourist centers not opened, I honestly do not have anyone to invite me, maybe I ll just apply later when they open.

Hi, how long did your application take? I mean how many weeks till you got a decision ?

Phic97:
Hi! , been a ghost member for a while, had to voice out today cos my SA visa got denied on friday, I met my South African gf while we were in Dubai, she got pregnant along the line but she’s back in SA now and and I’m back in Nigeria too cos I lost my job in Dubai due to covid but I’m planning to join my gf in SA so i can support her and be there for her. As my first visa application is denied due to the fact that the hotel reservation is unverifiable please I need help and guidance on how to apply again for the visa so I can be there for her when she give birth.
P.s : I don’t have access to the document I used for the first application anymore.

Post your refusal letter so you can be advised by the gurus

aopecy:

Ujay342:
Good day everyone. Please can someone please explain to me why this applicant was denied? It seems the ECO didn’t go through the applicant’s personal bank statement.
