Your legal adviser is a bit weird as reapplications become successful based on change of circumstances what has changed that he wants you to put In immediately?.But then again he want to law school and i did not so…

To me i would say give it at least 4 months so you can confidently submit a full 3 months statement.
This isn’t professional advice as you have wrongly stated but based on prior knowledge.

Don’t send your personal information to someone you only met online especially not me as i could be a scammer you just don’t know!.Perhaps blur out identifying information then paste it on here so others like giselle237 can weigh in.

Best wishes.

You could easily list out the documents you included in your application.

giselle237:
from this application you put your business and ECO had doubts … I don’t know about your job but if your guts say to reapply.. then by all means.

Davinton:


Remember,I have a job to come back to. I can't possibly leave all that behind and stay in UK illegally.

From your submission, you think the chances of getting a visit visa is slim. In other words, I should wait till my wife gets her ILR then file for spousal visa or go to a neighbouring country see each other.

Thanks once again.

giselle237:
Sir, If you got my point you wont be talking about landed properties. On a balance of probabilities why will you come back to Nigeria sir?
Your wife and your child are in the UK… with residential rights… abeg wetin go make u come back??
You didn’t convince this ECO and it is likely going to continue to be so. For ur ppl with LTR and ILR they will never tell u that’s the reason they see u wont come back. Another visa will be spouse visa but when your wife is eligible and that depends on timing… since she is on her last 2.5 yrs. if it’s ok and u really need to see each other maybe neighbouring countries will do… but I know the angle the ECOs will keep using and this is how it will continue for next VISITOR applications

giselle237:
in my opinion the above may work against you… you’ll just keep trying and trying but refusals maybe the order of the day as these 2 individuals tie you more to the UK than Nigeria. Visit visa will easily be violated by you on the basis of the above individuals…

You need to have a very solid application to grt a visit visa due to all I have stated. Of course lawyer will say anything to get funds from you but the above two and your immigration hx will be the bane of your visit visa applications.
I am happy to be proved otherwise nonetheless so good luck.

Your business or company name is not active on the CAC portal. This normally occurs when you don’t file your company’s annual return. You can get the service of a CAC accredited agent to help you with this.

Before you reapply, make sure your company or business name is active on the CAC portal, because they occasionally check to see if it is active or not.

infosoftlife:


FOR THE CAC ASPECT
You have to file your annual returns with CAC.
I am accredited to help with this if you are not afraid of agents.

NOW, when your company on CAC CRP is showing inactive, it is interpreted as the company is not actively trading (has filed for bankruptcy/closed/not in existence). This is the same as not having a company. It worked against the PROPRIETOR/DIRECTOR. After some years of noncompliance (filing annual returns with CAC), the company/business will be removed from the CAC directory.
If you were an employee, you would have been able to address this in your cover letter.
You won't be able to carry certain registrations with govt. agencies as a result of this status, such as BPP.

Right brother ild advise;

Step one :Give it a few months and try again this time go to the bank and let them do a letter called a signature confirmation on your company account (It is stamped by the bank and shows your full name,states when you commenced banks relationship ,says you are the sole signatory and shows your signature and a photograph of you).

Step two:Start paying yourself a certain amount every month as salary into your savings account so there is a paper trail and be realistic about it.Money in a business account is for business not personal use except you going for a training related to your field or something.

Step three:Go to Cac and update your details plus pay your annual returns and attach receipt with your application.

Step four:What visa type do your wife and daughter hold in the Uk?.If they can provide letter of invitation and statement of account that leaves you will less to worry about.

Step five:Explain in your additional information exactly what you do for a living ,for how long and give examples of incoming and outgoing funds so the case officer better understands how you arrived at your figure .Circle the amounts on the statement.

They are not convinced u are the owner of the account statement provided. According to their findings, ur business is not yet up to the level of generating such income.

dupyshoo:
I just can't find under which category you will apply. Maybe you should ask the lawyer before commiting yourself. What I am sure of is that it os definitely not spouse visa.

dupyshoo:
Not sure you can apply as her dependant from outside the UK. You might be better off waiting for her to get her ILR since she is on her last 2.5 years.

I’m afraid you’ll have to continue with professional help as I don’t want to mislead you

giselle237:
u need to check the visa category u should be applying for. If she has leave to remain that means its for a specific period. Last I heard about spousal visa is for the spouse of the settled person or British citizen which is not leave to remain.
Can you post the link from www.gov.uk which specifies your visa category?
Do your research and yes your previous records must come up so once u confirm the form you are filling in, you need to speak the truth about all your immigration history in the UK. Any dishonesty may be used against you

Davinton:
Good evening everyone, I have been following this forum for while and it has been quite helpful. I need your urgent advice as I am about to put in my UK spousal visa application.
I am and my wife got married last year October, she lives in the UK. She has 'leave to remain'( not indefinite leave to remain). I was removed in 2009 due to overstaying. Now here are my questions; will her present status be an issue, would my previous record affect the approval of my visa application, since my wife will be the one applying from the UK, how much do I need to have in my statement of account, do I need to write a statement of purpose? God bless you all as I await your responses.
N:B: done my IELTS test and TB certificate.
