I just got a 6 months visit visa for myself, wife and 3 kids. These are my observations with respect to the process.

1. You can write one sponsorship letter and give the details of all the persons you want to sponsor and the amount per person

2. Applications are filled and submitted seperately for each child

3. Minimum time for application for a visit visa is 90 days or less to your date of travel

House may wish to correct me where i am wrong
@ Darkshades

Please kindly guide me,am also in ur shoe my is wife and two children 1yr old and 3yrs old,to spend Easter in u.k.

1) Please since 2.5m was use to sponsor each child,is it this amount that will be written to answer the question that says, How much money will they be paying towards your visit?

2) what of infant that the, flight fees for infant is free,so how much are we going to use for the sponsor of infant?

Infant is baby less than 2yrs old

3) how much did you wrote to sponsor ur wife?

4) Did you wrote this 2.5M in naira for each person on their visa application form?

Wat city in d UK are you going to first of all.... That is wat will determine ur basic traveling allowance... Another thing to consider is taking a 1 year old child into winter season,, UKVI might see that differently,, unless you are planning to go after winter
@ Altern8

The trip is for Easter vacation I think that will be in April,so we have to start preparing right from now,

What welther will be in U.K by April?

You’ve got to understand that there’s no specific one answer to that question of how much you intend to spend. How much you intend will depend on your saving s or available bank balance, your expenses, lifestyle and circumstance. It has to make sense and more importantly financial sense
The reason I ask is to get a reasonable amount because I have seen on this forum when someone was refused on the grand that 1300pounce for 7days visit is too small, and also I have seen a person has also be refused on the grand that his budget is too high .

What does the £3k cover? Accommodation, PTA, feeding or what?

Sheabutter2365:
Morning everyone,
I have been a silent reader on this thread and yesterday, I got my two years UK visa. One peculiar thing was noticed, I think UKVI now sends email that can help you know whether or not you have gotten the visa. I got sent an email saying that their records shows that I was recently granted a visa and that I should link an e-visa. This email came before I even knew what the outcome was. It came after vfs sent “decision made” email.
I think this change is from the recent development that from Nov 2025(I think if you are granted a visa on or after), even visitors will start switching to e-visas.
I was sent this and 3days after, I received my passport with my visa in it grin
Congratulations

Please how much in pounce did you write to the question that says how many pounds are you planning to spend for ur visit and how many days

1) Is flight reservations among the documents you submitted for ur mum?
Since they said it's necessary for u k visa just want to confirm

2) Did you state it in her second application that salary and living expenses has increased ?

Her salary is 164k monthly and living expenses of 80k

Yes I’m in the uk and she’s visiting for the second time
@ Akintola thanks again

1) These salary and living expenses figure is it the same with the figure you use for ur mum in her first application?

2) Did you do budget analysis of the £2000 eg flight,food or you just write £2000 without doing analysis?

I want to no if salary and living expenses of self-employed business person can change in there subsequent application

CornOak:
Mr. Onile, you've been told severally that no one can determine this for you. Your budget will depends on your preferred airline, type of hotel, tourist sites, and more. However, you can target a range of £1200 – £2000 for 7 days.

Importantly, the funds available to you must be sufficiently and significantly above the cost of your planned travel, else, you risk a rejection.

Meanwhile, in your last question, you requested a budget for a mother and her infant. Now, you're back with a budget request for a businessman.
🤔🧐
Sorry I was asking the question on behalf of a family friend who was a businessman and which to apply for 7dayd tourist

Hello good people in the house

From experience has anyone use 3months statements of account or less to apply for UK standard visitor visa before and was successful?
Travel › Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Goodluck70000: 4:00pm On Dec 05, 2025
CornOak:
1. Budget is relative and varies based on each person's circumstances. Someone getting free accommodation will spend lesser than someone covering all aspects of their trip. Audit your profile, run the numbers and decide your budget.

Budget = flights + accommodation + transportation + meal + cost of planned activities + miscellaneous

2. You don't need a flight reservation for a UK visit visa. In fact, it doesn't influence the outcome of your visa. However, if you insist on getting one, you can use a reservation from any airline of your choice.

Good luck.
cornOak thanks and be blessed

My husband wrote £2000 for the sponsoring of me and my 1year old baby for 7days visit, is this amount not too much or is okay?

Hello good people in the house

Pls I am new on this forum and I have two questions to ask

1) like how many pounds can we budget for a mother and infant of 1yr old to be spent for 7days holiday visit to u.k?

2) Can we use flight reservations booking from any African airways to apply for visa, because I find out that African airlines are the cheapest ?e.g Kenya airways,royal moruk airline e.t.c. I hope it's not compulsory that it must be British airways before they can grant visa
