What number are you calling? If you can send me a mail so I’ll give you a number

Santa2:


If you submit with that CAS you most likely would be denied(except you have made provision for the difference of £4000 in your account).They need to correct it. Call them

Aikayval:

Most UK schools are slow anyway. But since January?? Na wa oo. Disturb them to correct it , call if you can.

Jarus:


Good to add, especially if you the account is good as you said, but I have never used personal bank statement (or any bank statement at all) for all visas for my official (company-sponsored) trips to the UK. My other proofs are usually overwhelming (that I consider adding personal statement unnecessary), including that my company has its head office in the UK.

"Name recognition"of your company may matter.

Note:- It is not all small scale business in Nigeria that are registered ps. If u d'nt av all the proof, the little u have state it clearly well.
All my applications I did, i explain 2 the consulate officer that apart from my permanent job I also run a teaching program during my weekend and I get some of my extra income from it. Aleast I get 100k monthly. My clients pay me in cash or they pay into my account.The business was not registered, the only thing I attached as proof was my degree certificate showing I am teaching the course I studied at uni,then i made a business profile for it and my visa was approved. This is a one man business and not all that are registered.
Since u av a store, and y customers pays into y account, make a small profile of y store and state there what u sell and how much u sell them. U can state that y younger sister runs it week days and u assist during y weekend and public holidays, if u av receipt of goods sold attached it as proof.

Thanks for this. I wil work on it if to consider the invitation or not.

Every application is evaluated based on its own merit and the current circumstances of the applicant not to overstay their visit. Your application is hinged on an invitation to attend a friend graduation, who is not related to you. You have proposed to spend 800K which you have saved over time from your salary (about 196K) and petty business. The question is would the ECO allow you to spend this amount to undertake a visit of no economic benefit to you? If your visit was based on say to go buy goods for your shop, then that is a valid reason to spend such an amount. Remember you have kids and other dependents that also need to be taking care of while you’re away. My advise is look for more tenable reason for your visit or than this graduation thing. You can start by tiding up your business, by keeping proper account eg invoices, sales, stocking cards, Facebook business profile etc. Your suitation and purpose of visit and that of @Monchat are quite different. There is no basis for an assumption that what might have worked for @monchat will also work for you. These are my advises and you are free to either take it or not.

Thanks so much for your response.
Please, I don't mind if you guild me through on what and what documents to be summited . If I see there is not enough doc. To back up the application , may choose not to apply and consider it some other times.

Cos the store aspect is giving me concern as there might not be a enough proof for it, except for the receipts I receive at the point of purchase. If I had knew, I would have given the customers I knw that do transfer a separate acct. never knew I would consider going with the friend.

And what proof do I need to to show the Eco that my sis. Is the one that manages the store?

ekpotek:


If you have enough documents to show how you built up your saving to 800K. If you have proof that your sister runs your shop and she is willing to care for your kids while you are away, you can go ahead and apply. Like I said, you will need to explain all the above when completing the online application form. It is left for the ECO to weigh all the evidences and consider if to issue you a visa to attend the graduation of a friend. Good luck.

ekpotek:


Read my post. My point is not about you going alone. My point is how would explain to the ECO the income generated from your store. Do you have sales receipts, invoice etc. How do you attend to your store if you work full time. Why is your store not registered? How old are your kids and who will take care of them in your absence? Who takes care of monthly home expenses? All this must be explain in application form.

ekpotek:


You can get a cover letter from your company HR to explain why your salary is paid by cash and support it with your payslips. However, how do you plan to convince the ECO that it is reasonable and justified to spend 800K to attend a friend graduation ceremony on a salary of 196K with a wife and 2 kids. The ECO will be interested in your monthly expenses and how you have been able saved up to 800K without any additional income.
