peace009: Hello guys, i need your advise. I have been to the UK several times (6 times) and i have been issued 6mnths and 2yrs visa but now expired. I want to renew now and just want to get things rightly. When i applied before i was working in the bank but i have resigned and start my own business which is registered LTD and have recent tax clearance. In one of my visit to the UK i stayed 3mnths and 2wks for the purpose of trying to buy vehicle and used things for export. I have documents bill of ladings for all the vehicles i purchased in the UK and other receipt for the used items and engines i bought. Now, am willing to apply now so as to go for holiday. Can i add my company's acct and personal acct , other properties documents. my personal is like 800k. what other things do i need ? I need help.

I meant going to the embassy not going to vfs

justwise: [/b] I'm not sure that will make any difference, not sure they will attend to them without pre-booked appointment. They can give it a go, who knows...

Yea who knows ill tell them to go there ang give it a try

justwise: You applied too late, that application should have been made at least a month in advance.

Yes justwie i guess the application was done late but please what is the way out from your experience can the go to the embassy monday morning to speak to them.

Hello guys please my parents submitted visa application to come for my graduation on the 4th of this month.my graduation is next week Thursday.we called the customer service in Lagos but no one picked.we now called Abuja and was told that the application is in Lagos and the confirm it had not been assessed due to back log they are having.i was given an email to email Lagos which have done but my worry is that they sometimes don't answer this email quickly.please can my parents go to the embassy in Lagos on Monday taking along the tickets which is for Wednesday and the vfs papers stating that the graduation is on Thursday and they are living on Wednesday.please i would welcome all ideas and information from you all cheers.

Hello friends u know how it is when one is waiting to get a hold of his passport.like i said abuja emailed on monday that it should take two working day to get back to vfs and one would have expected the text tonight.no text no status update.is it advisable to go to vfs tomorrow?thanks

lightofjoy: Thanks. Then what was the result?

got an email saying visa is issued and sent out two days ago so expecting it to arrive vfs today

lightofjoy: Thanks for your response. Though call VHS office and they said I can use pen to correct the mistake on paper but I think I will prefer to follow your advise.
My question is if I withdraw & demand for refund today(I know it take 28 days for processing), can I also fill another form and do another payment today?
Pls urgent response needed.

yes you surely can has long has you register afresh then you can demand for the other refund if that makes you more comfortable

lightofjoy: Pls I need an answer to this question?

hey don't be alarmed same thing happened when i filled out my forms.after submitting and paying online i saw a lot of errors with dates and names.i then went to the website and saw that you can use a pen to correct the form you print out and send to them and that was exactly what i did.the home office know you may make errors online.vhs was very correct with the info you got from them.refunding and all would take so much time dont stress

BnBarbie: @VicJustice; I think they only send you messages about your application if you subscribe for SMS service @ a fee.

found out from people who got the same email.they just started doing it especially for student visa.the home office at abuja sends the email then later the when the passport gets to vfs has the email says then vfs now sends the one you said you got via text and email too.but this one was sent from abuja vac email cheers

mukykaffe: did u submit yours with tb test?

NO SUBMITTED BEFORE THE TEST STARTED

bunburized: Before you start dancing etigi endeavor to stop typing on all caps. Yes, your visa application was successful.

sorry about the caps!!!!!!!thanks for that info i actually thought it was a scam email at first because i never knew they started doing that.thanks for the information ill inform my friends too

royalsweetness: Yes, many people here got the text too, it means you've been given visa as the text states.

@Miz Gene: Ok tnx

babybird82: Same thing with me Abbey. I concluded within myself that my own case is either because I am a first timer with a previous refusal.

Its really nothing to worry about though. Just go through your application form and be able to answer same thing u wrote when asked. If you used hotel booking, know the details. Also what you intend to do in the UK. I was also asked why my hubby n kids are not going on the trip with me.

Goodluck.

there is really nothing to be worried about guys so far your application is genuine.I was called for same in december and later found out that it is the new systrm now to randomly select people for interview which they just started last year.when I got there I was thinking there was a problem or something they wanted to ask me but was amazed that the questions where just simple questions based on my application and I was told that my passport would be sent to vfs after a week.and I got my passport. With my visa the following week.

Vicjustice: From your manners and the overwhelming respect..., would i be wrong to assume that you are a (pure) Yoruba man?
Anyway, to respond to your original query, i like to suggest that since your daughter and your wife are not going to the UK for the same reason, it would be ideal for your wife to apply for her visa alone, and when granted, any or both of you can always (in future) apply for a visit visa for your daughter.
Things are easier when done orderly, and though, i am not outrightly saying that they would be refused visas if they (your wife and daughter) apply together, but there is a high chance that both of them would be refused on circumstantial ground.

hahahahahah I am a pure yoruba man but nevertheless I just have an understanding in life that when you are trying to get what you don't have from another person you have to be has humble has you can because if you argue or fight they mey hold on to the vital information that would solve your problem. Thanks for the advice of letting my wife apply first I feel its. Logically right to clear the air for un neccessary suspicions.I would think over it and keep on following the forum and updating you with anything I come up with since the applications is in the middle of the year so ill be planning through.thanks for your advice I appreciate.

Vicjustice: I responded to your query with the (mis)understanding that you are a visitor in the UK and that the mentioned school in one in Nigeria. Please, disregard my comments in this regard

. Its fine sir am humble to this forum and everyone ere because it has helped me a lot in the past.you acting like the eco ere and am responding like the apllicant so its. A open forum.but still I wouldn't mind. More light to be shed on the issue for me because that's why I came to the forum to hear all the comments and opinion and advice from everyone in here.thank you sir

Vicjustice: You claim that your "wife will be going to the UK to do a short course in London school of fashion", but what will she tell the visa officer that your daughter will be going to the UK to do also?


Your daughter is a minor, so by whose eligibility, or under whose rights is she visiting the UK?
As a person using a tourist visa on holiday in the UK, you are not eligible to invite your child to visit you in the country.
Well, I don't know how others might see this, but i must be honest to point out that your move is suspicious: and you don't want to give the visa officer some reasons to suspect that you and your family are migrating, do you?

hello thank you for your reply.but I don't think you took your time to read my first post before your conclusion sir.I am not on a tourist visa.I have been studying in the uk for over 4 years now and I am still studying and in the uk now.and if you read my second post you should have seen where I wrote about me getting my university to write a letter to back up which they ususlly do.my friends at uni invite there parents to come and visit them through the school.I really don't see anything suspicious in wanting my wife and daughter to visit me while am ere.what is the use of sending almost 12 million naira to school for 5 years if my wife and daughter can't even visit me for atleast once.I have a good record and history with the embassy I have come to nigeria twice now to renew so what are we saying ere mr vic justice

Vicjustice: Your wife will be going to the UK to do a short course in London school of fashion, but what will she tell the visa officer that your daughter will be going to the UK to do also?

thank you very much that is more like an ecos question. Apparently my wife and daughter should be visiting me this summer and my wife is trying to use the opportunity to take the short course.but because there is no way she can take the course on the visitors visa the ukba advices to also fill student visitor course.so my child would be visiting her father. Who is on summer holiday too in the uk.am going to get my school to write the invitation letter supported with my own letter which they normally do for us.we have all finances to show and cover that they are able to come and go back with no issue moreover I am on my final year and also I have always put there names on my previous applications

Good day mr justwise thank you for all the assistance and advice you gave when I was re applying. I am in The uk settled at the moment.there is something I need to find out please my wife is presently in a fashion. School and she. Should finish in july.we. Are trying to get her to do a short. Course. In london school of fashion in july august.from what I read I guess its. The student visitor she can apply for.the course is only about two weeks.please she would have to come with my daughter at that period.what do we have to do to get all this done.any idea about the student visitor visa and can she apply together with my daughter and also what are the requirements can my mother sponsor her.I already have accomodation for them cos where I am staying can accomodate them.please I need advice

justwise: Both, you can both submit combined documents to show that your wife and kid have the support of both sides.

. Thanks so much for this advice justwise so I would be focusing on the visiting visa at the moment by GODS GRACE and would let you know how it comes out but I have to get to the uk first before they apply and I would be the one to write the invitation letter.cheers my bro.if you have any other info I should know please tell me.

justwise: They can come and visit you on visiting visa and not dependant visa, they are two different type of visas with different entitlements

. Ohhh that's very ok and good please can I be there sponsor or can my mother sponsor them.

justwise: You can only bring your family with you if you are doing a course at NQF level 7 lasting 12months or above.

I had a friend that was a student and. Wrote aletter to invite his mother come visit him last year in london I was suprised and felt he was lieing when he told me.I don't really want them to come and stay with me I just want them to have a visa that enables them to come spend some time in the uk with me.there should be a route to that.

Hey guys I got my student visa on monday.this is my main concern now and please I would need your ideas and assistance at this point.I would be studying my final year in ba business and marketing level 6.I have a wife and daughter.I want to use this opportunity to bring them to uk.my daughter is only 16months.they really don't mind just spending a month or few weeks with me and then they would come back to nigeria.they don't plan on leaving in the uk but if there is an opportunity for that I can talk them into it.but please what visa route do ytou think would be easy for me to use to get my wife and daughter a visa

Hello justwise and nairalanders praise JESUS!!! I got my visa this morning!!!

justwise: [/b]

You will not be given a visa there, you will still go home and wait for further communication from they.

Thanks very much justwise I attended the interview this morning and was asked some few questions about. My study and travel history and also on who is sponsoring me and what do I intend to do after my course.it was pretty calm and straight forward.i wasn't the only one even a lot of people on visit where called for interview and the security gave us the hint that they just started the new method of selecting people to interview.i was told at the end of the interview she would forward info on the interview to her coleuge in Abuja who would look into my application and then I should get my passport back ending of the week or early next week.i pray all comes out well in JESUS name.Amen!.

justwise: This is not an issue, British embassy started calling people at random for an interview couple of months ago, it could phone or face-face interview.

The questions will probably centred around your course and what you tend to do after graduation. These are questions anybody planning to travel to the UK to study should answer comfortably.

. Ohh thanks so much justwise so its not ny issue on ground then.I would just. Free style and just enligten myself more about my course then thanks a lot.do u personally know of any that went for an interview do u get your decision there and then or would still go home and expect vfs tracking and text.

FutureDon: Chief, no cause for alarm, it's a norm for them to randomly select applicants for interview. I'm sure your required documents are still with them. Just bounce there with a newspaper in your hand, lol.

. Ohh is itt! I have been looking at all the threads trying to come. Across who they called for a face to face interview but I have not seen anyone yet but I saw couple of phone interviews.about the newspaper thing lol.please any idea from anyone about questions that are likely to be asked the anxiety nd andrenaline is......lol
