My application got to the embassy July 7 and I got my passport back by August 29th.
Had to appeal though so now I'm still waiting for feedback

What was the reason for the refusal ?

Jojo1252:
Bro, the Embassy has replied via my appeal on

I'm making arrangements to go pick it up from the Embassy

What’s the update chief ?

Olayinkaraheem:
Hello nairalanders.

I submitted my Irish student visa application two months ago, and I just got my passport back on Monday. Unfortunately, my visa was refused, but they’ve given me the option to appeal.

The problem is, the reasons they listed in the refusal letter aren’t very clear to me. I’m not exactly sure what they mean or how to respond to them properly.
Could you please help me understand each reason and how I should address them in my appeal? I’ve attached the refusal letter below.

Is your sponsor related to you by blood ?
Or who is your sponsor ?
His he self employed ?

Jojo1252:
See the email I just got from the Embassy of Ireland Abuja this afternoon.

Where is it ??

olagabriel26:
Thanks for your response. In my case I got a scholarship for my masters research that includes full tuition waiver for the 2 years and a yearly stipend of 6900€, can the rest 3100€ be in my account (sent by my sponsor) and the rest 3100 euros for the second year be in my sponsors account

Yes chief
As far you can demonstrate it’s coming from a legitimate source

olagabriel26:
And also for health insurance can I use mutual benefit

Try study and protect
Don’t know bout mutual benefit

olagabriel26:
I want to ask how many years proof of funds do I need to have in my account for a two years master program when applying for Visa.

Tuition and the cost of living for 1 year and tuition and cost of living for the subsequent year i.e if it’s a multi year program
