Hello thread, I have a quick question.

I am planning to travel to the U.K on holiday on September 27th. I have a long term visitors visa so that's fine. However, I had long since planned to do a course at the end of October (Oct 30) after my holiday, that lasts 20 days however I recently found out that I have to get a short-term study visa.

However, when you look at the UK.Gov website, it says that you can study for up to 30 days on standard visitors visa. I've included a screenshot of the relevant section.

According to that I can't just go there with the purpose of doing the course. Well I'm going on a two week cruise, then visiting friends for two weeks before the course, and it made sense to tag the course on this trip to avoid buying flight tickets twice.

So what should I do? Assuming I have to get a visa, does anyone know if you can do priority with short term study visas in Lagos?

Dear Good People in the house,

My wife, kid and myself are planing to have our vacation in the uk but i have the following question to ask

1 How much should i have in my savings account cos i dont belive in putting money in the bank and just leave it?
2 I have share investements that worth about 6.2m, can i include it in the application?
3 I have RSA retirement saving account with IBTc that worth about 3m, can i include it in the application?
4 am financing a biz deal which the lawyer has drafted the agreement stamped and sealed about 7m can i include it in the application?

i asked the these questions cos i dont have much in my account am only expecting to take my contribution by dec and is 1m and also expecting a return of 1m from another biz finance deals in dec so i dont have much in my account.

5 do i tell pple to send money into my account then i will return it back
Also, my company is going to give me letter of introduction that will cover the 3 of us.

Sirs/ mas kindly help us with your wealth of experience

Hi guys...
Applied since June 20th..Nothing.
Business 6 months
Was supposed to travel on the 20th of Aug.
Eventually when they make the decision, when would the 6 months start counting.
Also, can I travel to Wales from England to see a family member for a few days with that Visa??

Cheers

ekpotek this is true

Austine2020:
Its not true, if u have a valid US visa and u are not entering inside UK, U can still enter British Airways, and transit at Heathrow UK for your onward journey to the US without any type of UK Visa. My Wife has used BA 2times to the US and transited at Heathrow for more than 5hrs before connecting her flight to the US without your so called Direct Airside Transit Visa.

Rachie83:

Afternoon house!!
So we made 2 applications one for my husband (whos married to a U.K. Citizen) -2 years visit.
The second was for his Godmother for a 6months visit visa sponsored by my husband.

Hubby approved. God mother refused. He wants to re apply so please can the house experts provide some input on what we need to supply. Attached is the EPISTLE, I mean the refusal letter.

Documents supplied.
Sponsor financial details, sponsorship letter, pictures, affidavit of relationship,
Note that hubby (sponsor) submitted same financials for his own application

Applicants financial statements, church letter stating she is a worker (which they understood to be employment), wedding invitation for her sons wedding, pictures with his mother, with him, with our children at family functions.

Look forward to your responses

I think the ECO must have discovered from document submitted that she does not have any concrete reason to travel! Read the first paragraph of the refusal letter. UKVI will not issues a visa just to go a stay with someone in the UK doing what. If she want to reapply she must provide justiable reason for the visit. Itemize what she intend to do etc. Hanging on your husband who is married to a UK citizen is not enough. Other reasons pointed out are just secondary.

Good morning home. I was denied visiting visa application four month ago with blank passport with refused letter saying that money in my account statement is not genuine and have work on it.Can I reapply now what's is my chance of getting the visa after four month

ancestorial:
please house, kindly examine this application. She applied to attend a meeting in UK, the organizers sent an invitation letter with other correspondences to her email. She submitted only the letter of invitation during her application and this what she got when she picked her passport. She later called the organizers and they denied the fact that they were not contacted by the home office for verification or whatever.

Kindly advise accordingly because she wants to reapply immediately and counter their claim with further correspondence sent by the organizers to prove her innocence so that the automatic refusal will be corrected because she tendered genuine documents, or what do you people think?

oluwatobilobami:
Good evening everyone am planning to apply for a uk settlement visa because my dad is a uk citizen and am actually really confused about lot of things
(1) He said he is gonna make the whole application himself and am confused cos recently on this thread have read case of people withdrawing their passport so if he is replying how will he get my passport and other needes documents?
(2) as regards the issue of birth certificate am just planning to get a new one hope that doesn't signify denial cos it's surely gonna carry his name but it's a new one.
(3) the available picture we have together was snapped last month
(4)he has been married in the uk 13yrs ago cos I lost my mom when I was young and I have good relationship with my siblings like I have printed pictures we snapped together
(4) the bank account statement I have if I must say if printed a full page may be filled with airtime recharge and whenever he sends me money whenever I get alert his name is not displayed.
I don't know if no 2,3,4 can prove that he is my dad cow when he applied for his uk visa then he told me when he got interviewed he said he has a child in Nigeria.
And lastly
(5) does anyone knows how long the application is gonna take before its been approved.
NB: AM UNDER 18
Thanks
Justwise, ekpotek, Brightingsus and everyone please I need you all to help

lmay18:
Thank you

can I start another application immediately? someone said I just need to write a letter and submit it with with the application...

amehrada:
My bro said he was not contacted.

Brightingsus:
You did not provide sufficient proof of your relationship to those sponsoring/hosting u for your proposed trip. Inasmuch as people talk about family pictures, pictures are not to be regarded as so much of a big deal for a visit visa. You take pictures with mates, friends n all; are you related to all of them? NO. You could have included pictures quite alright, but you could have gone ahead to provide more concrete evidence.

You did not even submit ordinary birth certifdate of yours. Your birth certificate would have had your father's name on it. For your brother, you might have still included his own birth certificate as the same father's name would be on your brother's birth certificate and yours too. You could have included means you communicate with these family members, for eg whatsapp chats, call logs or even emails.

Coming to your education, you did not submit evidence of how you maintain yourself and if you financially depend on anyone. This would have been on your bank statements. The ECO did not know how you maintain yourself and to him, chances are that you would abscond in the Uk.

May I remind you that whilst you provide sufficient evidence of your sponsor's ability to sponsor or host you, the ECO is more interested in your circumstances in your home country.

Thanks for your response. Should I go ahead and apply with only the coy account, tax clearance and other docs or i should build a personal account by transferring money from my coy account monthly as salary to my personal account for 4months before applying? .

I didnt remember saying I have not been paying tax or that i plan to evade it. I just asked if UK visa can be approved without the tax clearance. I know people get canadian visa without it and just want to confirm if its like that with UK.
