It is one person that is operating the multiple accounts, I’ve dealt with criminals worse than this, this one is a slow criminal. The symmetry in the writing pattern & tone alone have given the person out. The person na Olodo scammer. On two occasions I’ve read on this thread where people ask to contact directly and I’m sure many others are sending a DM without even posting on the thread, they will come back here to wail afterwards. The aim is to find customers to divert to the DM’s , justwise please come and mop up this thread of the menace.

spiceeamiee:
Thank you. I can attach the business documents and say Yellow Fever card together, right? Like merge them together using a pdf tool?

Also can I do a letter of explanation?

spiceeamiee:
Please @hunee and other gurus, can I use a flight reservation for VFS e sticker or it has to be a confirmed flight booking? Also what airlines can I book a valid flight reservation from? On the VFS e visa site, there is no place to attach business documents, how do I go about it? Do I also need to write a Letter of explanation? Please help with tips if you have applied before. 87usd is too plenty to waste biko.

Mandela27:

It's the airlines' season currently, so air tickets are quite expensive. You'll get a LOS-DUR return ticket for a mill

Setiuoriyomi:

Graceness777:
I did send mail. And I was expecting your response too, and I didn’t see one so I felt you didn’t want to reply and I didn’t wanna disturb you again

Thegamingorca:
Don't be mean. Most of us learnt how to do this from our personal experience of how seamless the process is.

Being an expert on these things doesn't require a degree in rocket science. Anyone can advice as long as you have common sense.

Graceness777:
I got it thanks

Good morning Gurus in the house, and compliment of the season.
I applied for UK Visiting Visa and I was refused. Pls advice needed on reasons for the refusal.

The decision
I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the
requirements of paragraph(s) V4.2-V4.6 of Appendix V because;
• You have applied to visit the UK for the purpose of visiting relatives for 21 days.
• You state you are employed with a monthly income of 242,993.58 NGN (£239.42)
with savings of 1,936,488.00 NGN (£1,908.00). I note you intend to personally spend
2,500,000.00 NGN (£2,463.22) and your monthly spending is 150,000.00 NGN
(£147.79). You intend to stay with your brother.
• In support of your application, I note your salary statements, employment documents,
bank statement from GTCO (account ending Bleep) with a closing balance of
3,478,868.39 NGN (£3,427.69) and all other relevant documents you have submitted.
• I have acknowledged that your sponsor is willing to provide adequate support for a
limited visit to the United Kingdom; however, it is your circumstances and intentions
which are paramount in assessing your application. The personal bank statements
you provided shows large cash deposits. I am not satisfied that this information
represents an accurate reflection of your personal circumstances because
your accounts show irregular deposits that are not in keeping with your stated
income. The information submitted with your application offers no insight into how
these funds were accrued I am therefore not satisfied that you have accurately
portrayed your financial circumstances. This in turn leads me to doubt your intentions
and credibility in wanting to travel on this occasion.
• Furthermore, I note your monthly disposable income is 92,998.10 NGN (£91.63). You
therefore intend to spend more than 25 months disposable income. I am not satisfied
you would be willing to spend such a disproportionate amount of your disposable
income on such a short visit to the UK. This damages the credibility of your
application. I am not satisfied your intentions to enter the UK are genuine.
• The factors mentioned above have not been taken in isolation but considered
collectively. They damage the overall credibility of your application, leading me to
doubt your intentions in seeking to visit the UK for the limited period and purpose
stated. From the information on your application form and the documents you have
submitted, I am not satisfied that you intend to leave the United Kingdom or that you
are genuinely seeking entry as a visitor. Your application is therefore refused under
paragraph V4.2 (a) and (c).

Thanks

Graceness777:
Hello @hunee

Thank you so much

Graceness777:
I was home all through today waiting for them to deliver my passport
Only for them to text me saying they attempted to deliver but my own premises was closed what happened to them calling
Like WTF with the lie
If they cannot deliver today shouldn’t they have said so ??
I mean why lie
Now because of their stupidity there prolonging things for like seriously
Naturally I hate DHL and I don’t use them. They have done this to me several times
They should just pray nothing happens to my parcel else they are doomed

girlchuks:
Hello everyone, does Poland embassy send appointment pdf letter to email?

Arry110:
Thank you so much, I’ve screenshotted all these and will use them as future guidelines

Please do you know if tls would automatically refund me as I’ve cancelled, or do have to take an action?

sanyaolurilwan:
Honestly, after reading your contributions to his issues, I felt obliged to comment here, I was also in this same issue in October and I was refused based on CAC issues and my financial positions, I made corrections to this and reapplied and I was approved.

I had commented for him to come and I put him through as I'm not someone who can type for long, I can only explain via a phone call and send him samples of the corrections I made so he can use them as guidelines. But I saw he say I was of no use to him and I kept my mute.

I wish him best of luck in his application. Thanks Boss

Arry110:
You’re very right, it was hurriedly done
I’ve already cancelled, I’d just enjoy Lagos tomorrow and travel back as planned on Friday,
I really appreciate your inputs
Abroad no be something wey dey hungry me like that, wetin dey pain me na the 250k I waste for to&fro flight and hotel



Please I have questions as I’d be applying in March what to I need to avoid.
1. I want to be paying myself salary from this January - how much do you think my opening balance should be?
2. How much should the opening balance for my business account be too?
3. How many months before intended travel date should I apply
Thanks
Hunee AmeliaT

AmeliaT:
3. Oh wow. So you used personal accounts and not a business account? Hmmm. I’m honestly not sure about this. @hunee please shed some more light.

I’m not sure it shows you to be a legitimate business owner who pays himself a salary. I would honestly prefer you clean up the accounts and come back in three months to avoid the taint in your record.

Or are you going for something urgent?

5. Awesome!

8. Well done!

You’re most welcome!

AmeliaT:
1. Well done. Fix the CAC issue urgently.

2. You can worry about tax later. CAC is the most pressing concern.

3. I noted that you did include an explanation for large deposits. I hope you included your own personal account and not just business. If it was just business, I seriously advise that you get your personal account statement, Explain any discrepancies and upload. You can’t float with just a business account. Many times, they have rejected people for this and say “while we note that your business account has a balance of 10m, we do not believe that these funds are accessible to you for personal use. If you can’t submit your personal account because it’s not fit, I advise you immediately withdraw, postpone your ticket and get your personal account in order and reapply in March. Or what do you think @hunee and @giselle?

4. Okay. Evidence of your relationship with your siblings, any property, the impact your business makes, charities, Church etc.

8. Nice itinerary. Well done. I however think it needs to be more realistic. There’s no time accounted for shopping, meeting up or visiting markets, meeting people? No lie-ins ? I also trust that you verified the prices of these tours you included and these aren’t old? Did you also check that they’re all open the time of the year you want to visit ? Some activities are closed over winter and many of them not frequented during winter due to the harsh weather conditions. Be mindful of that.

Arry110:
Ive sent a pm pls

Arry110:
Thank you so much
Omo I’ve already applied and I’m even on my way to Lagos for biometrics tomorrow, my flight leaves by 12
1. My business was registered in 2019, I was 18 by then but i discovered yesterday that my cac account is inactive as I’ve never made annual returns, with this short time frame my plan is to work on it immediately after my biometrics (I don’t mind paying extra to fast track it at cac)
2. Number 2 issue is that I’ve never paid tax before, please can you tell me how to do it let me see if I can pay it today
3. Wish I had done this earlier
4. I’m working on this, I don’t know if I have strong family ties here, my parents are late and were buried in the US, I have 4 siblings, 1 is in the US and 3 of us are here
8, I only put 9 days in my application and also made a detailed itinerary

Ashirioluwa:
Very good point. Like 50% of our youths who claimed they were going to Canada for a short vacation for a few days end up seeking asylum or overstaying their visas.

sanyaolurilwan:
You have home ties, your job is one, your parents is another, you need convince the visa officer you take care of them and you can't leave them for a long time, look for ways you're useful at home, maybe to family members, siblings, work, friends, etc and include in your cover letter.

About your account, all these you have explained here should be included in your cover letter, explain and make sure your explanations don't contradict itself.

One very important part of your application is your COVER LETTER, that's where you'll express your mind to the officer, that's the only part you can convince them, but the issue is: alot of people don't know how to write a cover letter and they tend to include a lot of lies. Best of luck!

dafeoroyo:
Apply for visitor visa,do Hotel reservations and attached confirmation receipts, if money dey well buy your round trip tickets and attached it to your applications, no mind those saying travel experience, She should buy ticket and pay for hotel when visa has not been approved too? How interesting... You do well
travel experience will always start with one

After this go, and do thanksgiving

vozkini:
