Newbie2021:
Got mine for around 30K last week!

30K paid online, 5K to the café guy and I paid 5K for my biometrics at the police headquarters Alagbon.

from Nigeria, I dont think there’s a direct flight. It’s either change airport in London, Paris etc and you are already at 34 weeks which is the cutoff most airlines use to decide who they will carry or not.
There’s no time on your hands anymore because worst will be 36 weeks. No airline will carry anyone at 36 weeks.

Nanyavikz:
Hello people!

Via this site https://ehome.dha.gov.za/epermit/login and this https://www.vfsglobal.com/en/individuals/index.html. VFs website, which one is faster in your opinion?

zizle87:
Hi 👋. Please I’d like to ask if the email you sent was translated to French. I’d appreciate if you can give a few other pointers also.

Nchabuomo:
I usually get an annual plan each year to cover all my trips in the year.

Nchabuomo:
Sure.

I applied in Abuja. The visa processing took 10 working days I think. After applying I paid 30k abi an 35k cash as visa fee which is refundable if the visa is denied.

Documents:
1. Bank Statements
2. Letter of introduction (self written)
3. Payslips
4. Filled Visa Form
5. Passport (old & new)
6. Travel Insurance
7. Accomodation details
8. Flight itinerary
9. NIN slip (I found this very weird as I didn't even initially have one but had to go get it after the people at the embassy insisted that I need to submit one)

You do not need to book an appointment, they offer drop-ins (Submission Monday-Thursday 10:30-1pm)

Got 6 months, multiple entry.

Let me know if you have any other questions

1daboi:
hi I submitted on the 28th of march at Abuja. Intending to go on 25th of this April.
How long did it take for your visa to be approved?

dami24:
Smh, I’ve already submitted, I can’t edit 😭. Thanks for the info. I will attach them.

dami24:
Really? I chose first time traveler already. Meanwhile I have previous Uk and US visas. My application on TLS is showing as first time traveler. Is there a way I can change it please?

dami24:
Thanks for your response.

dami24:
Hi, please advise, which do you think is better.

I am applying to Italy embassy but I also intend to visit Greece. Do you think I should mention that and do flight itinerary for Greece as well or I should just put the entire duration for Italy and then visit as many schengen states as I want when I get the visa.

Please advise. Thanks

Research before you go: Before you embark on a trip to Canada or any country, it's important to do your research. Learn about the local culture, customs, and laws, as well as any health or safety concerns.

2. Pack wisely: Make sure to pack appropriate clothing, footwear, and any necessary travel documents, such as passports and visas.

Prisscindy:
Hi,

I have visited the vfs website but still don't understand booking an appointment for biometrics if it would be an evisa for holiday visa. Kindly explain to me anyone. Thank you.

Then is multiple entry possible for this category?

I'm just trying to let him know the risk he's taking if that is his intention, meanwhile if I did not said that how would we know he has 5yrs work visa??

dami24:

DrOA:
One week. I didn't apply from Nigeria. I got my visa in a week

alert20:
I'm assuming you entered the UK with a 6months tourist visa right

And now you want your daughter to come to UK and both of you can stay in the UK illegally while you hustle like you said Abi

vozkini:
Prior the issuance of the visa. Previous application was denied. It’s the same application and same documents used earlier even my cover letter was a shorten instead of before and I even use pen to complete the cover letter and sign. I was denied earlier and someone told me that most people are likely to be given visa by Schengen country if you have the mention visas on your passport.
That’s the reason for the observation @hunee

vozkini:
What do I expect going to paris. I intend traveling by ending. I need ideas. Will come back after 5 days

Julibae96:
Please how much does the south Africa evisa cost? And what's the processing time like?

Then can i also upload my husband's bank statement as proof of funds?

Tryhard:
Please can police clearance be done in Nigeria high commission in Pretoria,?

Phunmyne:
Alright, thanks. It all started with his company receiving an invite from another company in France to send a staff of theirs to the company in France. The company here is buying an equipment from the company in France.
The first visa application was denied which came as a surprise, their reason was that they could not justify his traveling purpose. The company in France was contacted to reach out to them so the exact reason for the refusal will be known, the response was that the submission was less than a month to the traveling date and his marital status from his company's documents in Nigeria was single while he presented himself as married. The company in France decided to send another invitation at no cost (the first invite was paid for, not a big amount though).
All documents was put together again for re application, the day he went to submit, the company in France was updated and they sent a reminder memo from their end as well. He was refused again. This time they gave two reasons 1. They can't justify his traveling purpose 2. They are not sure he will leave the member state before his visa expires.
What do you think might be wrong?

giselle237:
resident ke.. you should have started with I am currently illegal… you are not a resident if I could be plain with you. I say this because you are part of the quota making things difficult for others to be granted visa.
Please note that I am not a professional immigration advisor and any suggestions should be checked out independently. Your overstaying should not be a problem as long as there are no aggravating circumstances.
Return home/get married when you want and make your spouse visa application but make sure to get advice from a solicitor.
