Good day everyone
Please I need advise so I have previously been denied a visa in December, I’m trying to reapply.
My sister is sponsoring me, she has 5000 pounds closing balance in her 3 months statement and I have 3m in my account.
I plan to stay for two weeks, I earn 450k and spend 200k so my disposable income is 250k.
I’m getting a letter of introduction from my office and I’m also running a masters programme. I’m currently engaged

Good day every one, I currently have a 6 weeks Schengen visa ( Expires June 22). I want to apply for a UK visit visa so I can visit some of my friends in the UK as well. I have more friends in the UK than the Schengen area. So I would like to ask if I apply to the UK now, will I be able to get a biometrics date and response between now and June 22. I’ll appreciate your response!

Ruthiegal:
Hey guys I need help. I am trying to book a flight from London to Lagos and the cheapest I can find is Royal air Maroc with a layover in Morocco. Would I need a valid Morocco visa to book this flight and transit through Morocco? I don’t have one.

Someone should kindly answer me before I book an unusable ticket please.

Good evening everyone

My agent made a mistake during my application and chose 'no' to travel history when for a matter of fact I did travel to another country around October 2017 on a visitor visit. I saw the mistake when he sent my application pdf. I can no longer modify or edit the application

As it stands I'm yet to pay for ihs and visa due to the mistake. Will it affect the outcome of the application if I go ahead to pay for the ihs and visa fee and book my appointment for biometrics?

What do you advise I do?

Zeefaa:
Hello guys, please how much should statement balance be at least for tourist visa now, 1 week, I person? pls help. does it matter if you indicate you're going to Joburg or Capetown on your form? which is better pls

Question1:
Hello my people,

My girlfriend has just been refused UK Tourist Visitor Visa for 7 days holiday (see refusal letter attached). She's currently a student at the Nigerian Law School, Lagos Campus, and employed as a remote Digital Marketer with a company in the US. She has worked with this company since July 2023 and presently earn $1,782 every six weeks. The purpose of her trip is for a short holiday in London, to relax and experience the city’s cultural and historical attractions.

Kindly advise based on the refusal letter. In addition, what are her chances of approval if she re-applies and address the refusal reason.

Just to add, the missing salary mentioned in the refusal was, in fact paid the first week of the following month(April) and it appears the VO skipped that entry in her bank statement.
this applicant have a high chances of getting visa when she re apply

hunee:
E visas are a gamble.

No chance to appeal, re apply.

Hello, i want to believe they are attending to renewal faster as my two years renewal came out in 5 working days .



quote author=Gentleman07 post=135941210]
Picked up my passport today with 2 years visa

It was quite fast just 4 days from biometrics to pick up email.

I was in the uk for 6 weeks on my 6 month last year. Submitted everything I saw on the thread but I guess submitting a my bank statement that gives them access to login in real time to access both my personal and company account might be the reason for the swift response.

Thank you all on the platform for the insights.


All the best

Hello to everyone

I’ll pick up by Monday. Pls does anyone have an idea why decision so fast even tho I didn’t pay for Piority fast track,

Biometrics was done at Ikeja Lagos.

Bless you all for all meaningful contributions

Hello Everyone,

For people that have gotten their visa through SA evisa, I have two questions:

1. Do you do biometrics after applying through SA Evisa for visitor visa.

2. I understand there is a payment issue going on with SA evisa website, does anybody know when it will start working?

I will appreciate any answers, suggestions or advice on these two questions.

Thank you

Good morning guys!!
Please, I need help..
1. My sister is on postgraduate visa working in the UK.
2. My wife is currently on a student visa in the UK too.

Now, here is my case:
I want to apply for a visit visa to go visit my wife, as it's been almost a year now( body no be firewood).

I am confused on whether to use my sister or my wife as partial sponsor.

I have over 6 million in my salary account and earns above 700k/M.


Try to Save more money before applying ,according to your statement you want to spend 1500 pounds on this trip,this is half of your savings ,secondly you might not need a UK sponsor ,all you need is letter of invitation from your wife ,her passport data page and immigration status ,utility or rental documents ,you may not need her employment details but her school ID card is fine ,also you can only state that you know someone else in the UK ( your sister ) best of luck and ensure you include marriage certificate and evidence of sufficient pictures with your spouse ,preferably family pictures ,before i forget to show your family tie include your house documents ,children birth certificate ,payslips ,bankstatement and reference letter from the bank and other evidence to show your financial circumstances in Nigeria ,u re free to dm me
best of luck

I want to use my sister as partial sponsor as she wants to support with £1000.

But I'm going to visit my wife(I can't use her as sponsor as she recently works above the allowed number of hours).

But my wife is the one inviting me and all.

I intend to spend £1500 total on the trip..that is, my sister £1000 and myself £500..

Then her payslip and all.

NB: I have 2 kids in Nigeria, I own properties, I work, and also a pastor in a church..

Please, is this feasible?
Someone please help evaluate my profile

You see the bolded maybe the reason you got the visa. SA is gradually becoming something else, you need to read comments here. If you escape bank statement palaver, you may not be lucky on yellow fever . All the same, Congratulations.

I arrived SA last week for my holiday, I used South African Airways, we took off at about 10:07PM and landed about 3:34AM. The immigration guys at night are very weird, they seem to beg Nigerians money, we should report to their immigration or boycut their airline.
Some Nigerians just wear gold and diamond and the immigration officer was saying his tired of stamping passport that his been here since morning and it’s 4AM that we should wait till 7AM when the next shift of immigration officers… I don’t know because they feel Nigerians have money or they saw some boys dressing like Lil Baby.
But except that experience it has been a beautiful week here in Johannesburg, excellent weather and great city, flying to Cape Town next before heading back to Lagos.

All the best..

Please guys I’m not sure if this is the right place to write this but I just need someone to come to my aid. My current visa tier 2 is expiring in 2 days and the company that promised to give me sponsorship just decided that they are not giving again. I have a daughter last year December (6 months) and my husband as my dependent. Please what can I do?

mekanta7:
Yes you can apply for US visa from any country they have embassy.
I have applied for us visa from London while on UK visitor visa. Just be ready to answer extra questions on why you couldn't apply from country of your residence.
If you have money to spare, go on tourism in Mauritius.
Go to US embassy mauritius, you don't need visa to mauritius.
Just make your application straightforward.
Nobody dey that embassy, i schooled and lived there.
US visa on Nigerian passport outside your place of residence is 40/60..
God bless ❤️

giselle237:
yes don’t make it seem like you are doing something out of the ordinary as plans change all the time. And don’t go and give unnecessary context to questions if not asked.
Q- How long are you in the UK for?
A- answer straight. 1 week or whatever
Only answer hotel question if you are asked.
And answer only what asked
Eg. I would be staying at the garden hotel… don’t start answering for few days or few months except if you are asked to show the reservation or how long or to explain.
Then be bold and say I have paid for a few days to try out their services etc as I explained and take it from there. Especially you who got your visa sometime in April or so and we are almost in June… so they know all the time plans change!!!!
Who is to say you did not read a bad review online about the hotel etc and are now wary of them bla bla bla … just have confidence
