Hello Sir, I am considering either applying for a Bsc program for my wife or an 1 Diploma program for myself. In any of this circumstance, Can I travel with dependents ? Please let me know sir. GraduatesGrant: VISA APPROVED Appreciation to everyone who has provided information previously that guided me on this path.
Got my offer of place in June 26th precisely. The dollar rate actually affected my already saved funds, so it delayed my process.
I applied for my visa September 14th it was a group application, my wife and two kids. A week after application I got an email requesting I submit my research abstract and filled the form 1200.
October 12th my wife got an email requesting she proved we've been living together that they are already satisfied that we have a genuine relationship. They gave a 26th October as the deadline to provide this. I went to the local government where we live and got a Domicile letter and we also added some documents like invoices carrying our address from the company she usually get her toiletries, pictures of our first and second daughter naming ceremony in our residents with family and friends, although we've provided similar pictures during the application.
She responded to the email same day which was 13th October on a Friday and on Tuesday 17th our visa landed .
Documents submitted Proof of fund: I used a fixed deposit certificate Proof of employment: I'm an entrepreneur, I submitted my CAC documents, 5 years Annual returns receipt from CAC, recommendation letter from a federal university I've worked for commending my company (I run a solar company), clients reviews, memorandum of understanding I entered with top leading microfinance bank with sole aim to sponsor anyone interested in acquiring solar in their homes, 6 months bank statement of my company showing transactions (I banked with a microfinance bank), my NYSC certificate, and CV.
Education: I submitted my bachelor's and master's degree certificate and transcripts.
For my wife: She's a professional banker, I submitted all her employment letters (3), nysc certificate, and CV.
Other documents: marriage certificate, wedding pictures, numerous WhatsApp chat conversation I had with my wife relating to our family, pictures when we had our first baby, Xmas pictures when we went out to with our kids, birthday picture of our first daughter with both of us, chat conversation when my wife was asking me to get baby food for my little daughter with date.
Family ties: nothing much here, I don't have any landed property. I only presented a picture I took with my mum and dad, and I already stated I'm the only son of my parents.
Reason to return back to Nigeria: I presented My company as my treasure, with my bank statement already shown and the partnership my company entered with a microfinance bank, I will definitely come back. I stated I have few staff with their names and information in my cover letter, they will be the one running the company in my absence. Although, they are great guys and I trust them (just two of them).
My cover letter: this was a long one, since I won't be there when my application is been reviewed, I made sure I explained in details and be convinced that there won't be any question regarding my genuine intention to study and gave a good reason why I'm coming with my wife and 2 kids. It was a long letter (9 pages )
Men and brethren, I was in doubt if my application would be approved, but I and my wife prayed endlessly, especially using a fixed deposit from a microfinance bank, No landed property and many more. God came through and helped me.
Application duration was exactly 33 days.
My program: PhD in mechanical engineering, Auckland university of Technology.
Thank you all and God bless you.
If you're in this process or planning to apply, make sure all your documents are GENUINE and PRAY. |
