No 8 is totally right. Family proof here in the case of a married person is their marriage Certificate, birth certificate of your kids.

If you are Single, please attach pictures this goes to show you have a family here.

No 9, if you have paid Personal Tax on Direct Assessment please include and if you dont have some Tax filings ignore it.

No 8 is not necessary
No 11 is not compulsory but if you have no problem. I applied with my CAC without Tax document and I still get it.
No 8 doesn’t guarantee you visa, they know you have family here either you put family pictures or not, as a single person is not necessary they will not see it as anything , nobody is born without family naaa. They know that you can still abscond with tourist visa even when showing family picture they can take it serious if you are married, that is what they regards as FAMILY TIES. But as for married people you can show your family picture as evidence you are married if you are traveling alone not that is part of required documents

3m isnt sufficient for 2 Adults. When you state you had N 500k was this your First or Second Visa.

Do a rough estimate and see if it works for

Flight - N 350,000 x 2= N 700,000( KLM- Eco) this is an example.
Hotel- N 450,000 (Depends on the Arrondissement you choose though) maybe cheaper
.
Feeding & Shopping- N ??

This is taking almost N 2,000,000 already.

You have kids back home, a business and expenses to take care of after the trip.

As Said already run the business for more funds
. Except you have some money market funds which can be liquidated to cash then you are good with the N 3M.
Yes is my first visa and the second visa I didn’t have up to 1m I still get it.
The strategy is that you apply earlier before your trip date for like 3 months ahead , they assumed more fund will still flow in before your departure since you are a business person, that’s my though why they approve with limited fund available as at the time you applied couple with the constant inflow and outflow in your account. The visa officers are strategic thinker . Lodge in fund of 50m without inflow they will denial you visa.

Hmmm.... money has been approved.... and that's all that matters. Which airline will dare fly a commercial plane in a war zone? ... under which insurance company? 5000 Nigerians.... mainly students will be evacuated?.... beginning tomorrow... from which airport? ... where is the meeting point?... can they get there? Later we'll hear from the airlines.... it has now become.too dangerous for us to fly in that zone..... and we won't hear about the approved money while 5000 Nigerians are left likenstrays in the bitter winter cold.
The flight is not landing in Ukraine rather it will fly to neighboring countries where Nigerian currently flew to for rescue to evacuate them. Make we dey try use our brains

Ok so my personal account i made sure , it just gets ny salary , the one i pay myself monthly while my business account has very good inflow and outflow but the issue is, attimes i withdraw almost everything in my businessacct to buy goods for sale, but my personal is very ok with like 3m plus .
So i was thinking of just applying wt my husband alone , leaving behind my kids.
Im just confused but i will save more, trying to avoid transfer of unexplainable funds, thats why
As far as you are doing business it is possible to use all the money in your account for business purpose sometimes is not an issue since there is constant inflow and outflow in the account.
Ensure the salary you pay yourself from your business account reflects to your personal account . The reason for including your business statement of account is to show your business impact but your personal account will be considered. Also include your husband account statements if possible.
Explain in your statement of purpose letter that you are the sponsor for the trip
3m account balance is okay and if you get other documents right it might fly.
If your account is not build enough for the whole family trip you can consider you and your husband trip for now.

Please did you read her initial post where she stated she has a good inflow and outflow?



quote author=HRprof post=110695949]

If you have a business and your bank account is busy with frequent transaction, it does not matter if there is huge current balance, people go to the embassy with 20 million account balance and still get refusal. Embassy look at the inflow as in constant transaction in the statement of account. I got my visa with 500k current balance but have total inflow of 10 million within 3 months , that’s what they consider most otherwise it will look as if you lodge in the money to get visa
If she doesn’t have inflows then is better advise to run the account with constant inflows and outflows to build confidence with visa office that shows she is actually doing business not otherwise

The form is easy to fill but dont mix up the information.

Some 6 to 7 M bank balance should suffice for your application.
Its important to have something financially OK to survive on after the trip.
It doesn’t work like that , embassy is interested on the inflow in your bank statement than current balance amount. If the total inflows is 10 million for instance and you have 500k current balance you will get the visa but if the current balance is 10 million but no constant transaction it might affect the visa, they call it money lodgment just to boost your account , I’m talking with experience

Yes you can travel to any other Schengen country from france since your French visa is valid. For 4 days conference you can get less than a month visa from French embassy. Mind you if you don’t have demanding skill you will find it difficult to survive in Europe.

Is not advisable but if you must migrate through conference is not going to be an easy thing, considering language barriers, What skill do you have ?
I met a guy from Mali in Paris and the story he told me on how he migrated with tourist visa till he got his temporary permit to when he got French passport wasn't an easy journey couple with the fact he speak French as a francophone country he came from talk more of someone who don't speak French.

The purpose of travel is tourism.

When can I reapply ?
I mine going to explain the reason why I am refused the visa in my next application?
Can I pay for tour in my next application instead of tour reservation?
I suggest within 3 to 6 months to reapply
No need to explain the reason for refusal they already know
Do not pay for tour it doesn't make any meaning but if you have to pay ensure is refundable.

What is your purpose of travel?
Traveling for the first time with vacation purpose is difficult to get visa the chance are slim. If you have a business and include your CAC document with business bank statement gives you more chance than salary earner.
Conference is still the best purpose of travel and people are granted visa easily with conference or event than just visit on vacation. Take your time and rearrange your next trip

Sorry I had to create new account to remain anonymous.

Please men of the house I seriously need advice. Straight to the point, we've been married for 6 years now and I love her so so much, our compatibilities is 100%. We have a beautiful baby girl and we are still currently living together at the moment.
Since we married things has been extremely bad for us unlike before we married. Though I myself was down with sickness for years that almost took my life but God revived me and she stays with me. My business doesn't require my presence (networking) because currently am still getting money but not much. let's say 20k average which of course not much for the family.
ll
Unfortunately people who does not have creative ability in them to be successful in life tag their weakness to be spiritual problems and allow business men on pulpit to use them as their own business strategic tools for their own success. Nigeria men of gods only see VISION without SOLUTION.

OP to be successful in life you must have this key component in you
1. You must be creative in nature or self develop
2. You must have business acumen

If You like bag first class if you don't have these skills you will not not be successful in life

TravelRe: HELP On International Flight Booking by HRprof: 1:16pm On Feb 22, 2022
Nancyama:
Hello Nairalanders,
I NEED YOUR HELP on how to Book International Flight ticket. I have been booking local flights successfully but now I'm going International.

Should I book the ticket on the intending flight website i.e ETHIOPIA AIRWAYS same way I book other local flights or USE AGENT?

My friend suggested I use Agent to book but I don't know if that's the best option as I want to have
a first hand experience on this.

PLEASE DON'T VIEW AND PASS grin SAY SOMETHING!
Direct booking is the best, the first time I want to book for international flight I was contemplating either to use agent or book direct like you did, i eventually discovered i can do it myself after i contacted agent and wigh the price he gave me and what I saw on the airline website which is lesser than the agent and went ahead and book direct.
When I told agent I book direct he got angry and told me that my money is gone that is only agent that can book direct flight for airline customers. When I finally landed in Europe I chatted him and he was like buy some coming back.
Agent can tell you anything just to make sure he collect that small change from you. Direct booking help you to directly resolve any issue with airline which agent will not do for you once they are done booking your flight

EarthChild:
As a first timer for a Schengen visa you have 50/50 chances. However, if you have obtained a Schengen, UK, Canada and the US visas once, then you are a frequent traveler, you are more likely to be granted tourist visa.
I will suggest you change your plans to the “Business trip” You can look for a conference that related to your field or business.
A tourist Schengen visa can be good for a frequent travelers. The visas are issued specifically for the purpose of travel for pleasure, while a 'business' visa generally permits a traveler to engage in normal business-related activities. So you need a supporting letter to apply for business visa, which a invitation letter from the organizer in France.
This is the best advise for first time travelers. Is likely to get business visa than tourist visa as a first time traveller for Schenge visa. I have this experience when I first applied I was denied visa for tourist I later got a conference which I reapply and get the visa.

Can I apply as a frequent traveller if I have never been to France or Europe (in a manner of speaking)? I have traveled to Canada, US (last travel was late 2019), Turkey (just returned), UAE, Qatar and several African countries. What's do you advise from your experience thus far?
You are frequent traveler , it covers all travels to countries outside Africa. Make copies of your visa’s and attached to document you want to submit.
