As per advanceDNA since I am the sole responsible parent, I don't need the any other consent or to carry the other parent along.
Except if the partner is late. You need consent. DNA is to confirm something else (paternity/maternity), while consent to travel is also different.

Please is a hotel reservation alone sufficient for the point of entry immigration officers? Or one has to actually pay for all the nights ahead. Incase they ask & call the hotel to confirm.
They'll ask you where you're heading to while clearing you into the country

Good day house,

I just want to confirm if I have to print out all the documents that I upload on VFS self upload portal and take them to my appointment.

Also, I got my bank statement from my app, Do I have to print all too. I have 71 pages of statement.

My appointment is on Wednesday. Thank you
Contradictions in your statement.

Upload means you have sent already, why do you need to print again?

@ Davodyguy thanks a lot



1)I have read everything, but which one can I pick for my children?

2) U did not say anything about the total budget of £2200, for 7days visit,is it okay? If not okay? where should I add more money?
I used Naira in our case.

Ticket for 3 people, I stated ₦6m
I stated ₦2.3miillon for entertainment etc
I'm not paying for accommodation, so I stared nothing.

But you have to put accomodation say £50 to £70 per night
Feeding for all of you at about £50 to £100 per night.

Your budget appears low

I chatted her up yesterday evening, she sounded so nice.
I thought within myself, how can someone who sounded so nicely do all what you're accusing her of.
My question now is, did she collect any dim from you.
Be 100 percent honest with us, because I don't believe.
She's my fiance, someone I know since secondary school days, though i have screenshots of your chats with her

She's a very nice girl and she told me about you since last year when you guys started chatting, all your dirty chats with her, she screenshots them and sent to me and how you planned to rent an apartment and leave with her there.
Because she refused that's why you went back to Nigeria.
No wonder you opened an account today 1st December, 2024 and knew all that transpired between them in Burkina Faso.

Modupe1981:
Ok, @ Davodyguy

Help me access this two questions below if I answer them well because I use ur statement
If you needed to add more information about your application but were not able to, you can write it here.

You need to speak about the about the application, try to convince them that you have funds, tell them you'll not run way, that this and that, then end it with financial analysis that you already provided.

You have a genuine reason that your husband is sponsoring because of the new born


You can also use WhatsApp Meta for some answers


Here are some possible reasons why your husband might be sponsoring a family trip to the UK:

1. *Celebrating a milestone*: Perhaps you're celebrating a special anniversary, birthday, or family milestone, and your husband wants to make it an unforgettable experience.

2. *Family bonding*: Traveling together can strengthen family bonds and create lifelong memories. Your husband might be sponsoring the trip to bring your family closer together.

3. *Educational experience*: The UK is steeped in history, culture, and learning opportunities. Your husband might be sponsoring the trip to provide a unique educational experience for your family.

1. *Relaxation and stress relief*: Traveling can be a great way to relax and reduce stress. Your husband might be sponsoring the trip to help your family unwind and recharge.

2. *Personal interest or hobby*: Perhaps your husband has a personal interest or hobby related to the UK, such as history, literature, or sports, and wants to share this passion with your family.

3. *Business or work-related*: It's possible that your husband's company or work is sponsoring the trip, or that he's combining business with pleasure.

4. *Special treat*: Let's not forget the simplest reason: your husband might just want to treat your family to a special experience!

Whatever the reason, I'm sure you're excited about the trip!

Thankful11011:
Good day everyone, please I want to apply for a uk visa with My husband and would like to ask some questions please
1. My husband owns a business but mostly runs the business account with a micro finance bank for his daily transactions, (moniepoint) then make transfers into his personal account, so my question is can he use only his person account or most he include his business account considering micro finance statements are not recognized and also his occupation will be started that he is an entrepreneur on his application form
2. Please can we use 3 months bank statement for our application.
Just incase this information will be important, I have been to the uk multiple times and even did my masters over there but the last time I went to the uk was in 2014, over 10 years, been to usa, but my last time was in 2018 and Holland that was also a long time ago, my husband has only been to Dubai,
Thank you as u await your response 🙏🏽
Judging by your travel history and provided you did not overstay, you stand more chance than your husband

1. Does he pay taxes? If he doesn't, let him meet any tax consultant so they can get him last 3 years tax clearance

2. You want do you do presently?

3. Your husband can use both his corporate and personal accounts. He must run it clean and make sure only salary from corporate account enters personal account.

4. If he claims to earn xyz, that xyz must tally with what enter the account and whatever he says is the monthly expenses, they must reflect in that account

5. You both would write letters explaining your personal circumstances in Nigeria, what you do, how you make money and how you have been to the UK previously, without violation, they should be assured you'll not do that this time

5. The same account tally must also be done by you

6 Origin of all funds in your account must be stated

7. If you say you earn ABC, that ABC must enter your account every month. Do not let EGG enter that same account without explaining

@ Davodyguy thanks for ur help God will bless u.


I have done it has you directed me for all the applicants mother and 2daughters. See the 7dayds budget analysis below.

Pls where on the application form will I write ur statement which says?
the above sum provided by the sponsor is to be jointly spent by all applicants.
It would be written in that last part that says do you have additional information to this application? That part before you click submit.

How many of you are going and who's sponsoring?

Let's understand the scope, before you pay $155 per applicant

Good morning house, pls I need answers to my questions.
1. Should I use my company statement of account to apply or my personal account.
2. Do I need to do health insurance for short stay
Use both.

You asking about health insurance means you didn't read the requirements well.

https://france-visas.gouv.fr/en/track-your-application

To get a visa to visit France, Nigerian citizens need:
A valid passport with at least two blank pages
Passport-sized photos
Biometric data (fingerprints)
Proof of sufficient funds
A valid return ticket
Proof of accommodation for the entire stay
Travel medical insurance
A travel itinerary or plan

@ cashmadam and other gurus in the house please help pinpoint what I can do to rectify this refusal
My husband was to be my sponsor I was to travel with my two children aged 17+ and 19+ they were also refused.
Do you think this can be rectified and one can reapply? Thanks in advance
I put in that I have other savings and investments eg. Pension, money from family...because I ran 18m over six months in my account though most came from money sent into my account by my husband to pay school fees for the children. I am a government worker so salary for now is quite poor.. I saw this thread after we had been denied
I put in that I spend 100k monthly
Put in 1500 pounds as total cost of the trip which my husband said I should write.
Having read both refusal letters, obviously you didn't package your application well.

I'll give a general advice to people.

Start reading this thread from year 2022 to 2024 and you would see similar cases to yours. Read and plan to apply 6 months after.

Except if you have a strong travel history, that's when you can take certain things for granted, otherwise, you stand no chance.


I sponsored my family and we're granted. My wife also works for Government and we made sure what's stated in the pay slip matches what's in the account.

I gave the advice that whether your account is clean or not, write a letter to explain.

UK focuses on every in flow and outflows from your account, looking for slightest excuse to refuse. Don't give them that chance by messing up your application.

Read the refusal letters and try to correct everything in 6 months, before trying again

Indeed fast. It'd seem France processes Schengen visa faster in Naija than all the others.

I'm even surprised to see that the visa stamp issued date is same day (today) that the passport was returned to VFS and VFS alerted me rightaway.
Yes is the faster in visa insurance. When I travelled in 2019, we submitted application on 27th October, visa issued, 12th November.

It's the day they issue Visa that they send to TLS. Same day or next day. They don't keep passports at the embassy

Greenland : No black man set foot in this country until 1968 when Tété-Michel Kpomassie of Togo visited. The territory ( which belongs to Denmark) is 3 times the size of Nigeria, yet has a population less than that of Ikeja.

67% of the country is almost just mountains and ice.

I am flying over it right now and can see the ice mountains.
