Good day guys.

Pls I need help/information regarding the following.

I just applied for interview waiver and the date I selected is this Thursday 14, September.

I'm really confused as to how to submit my documents and what documents to submit.

I live in port Harcourt and my appointment location is Abuja.

Please, how do I send my documents across and what documents am I supposed to include. I really can't seem to figure it at all. Thanks.

Also how is my document/passport to be returned to me.

Pls pls, I would be appreciating a response. Pls don't read and pass if you have answers or have recently had to send your documents for IW from another state than the one for your appointment.

Thanks and God bless 🙏

After graduation I completed my one year NYSC program in 2013, while still under the NYSC program I applied for a UK visit visa to attend a friends graduation ceremony in Portsmouth, I was refused, in the best of my knowledge this was because I did not present enough evidence to show I was able to finance my trip myself.

Hi everyone, please do anyone know how long Dropbox renewal takes?

Please can I select assisted service appointment and still upload documents myself?

Hi guys, All the self service appointments available I’m seeing I’ve to upgrade and I’m not seeing the cost, will more appointment date open up later?

Mekailo:


I think you can still edit the application if you haven't summited and paid.

I have submitted and paid, I just cancelled it

Cashmadam:




It might not be an issue - as any reasonable person might guess that it was an innocent error. However, if it does become an issue, you will blame yourself.I suggest you start another application.

Ok thank you so much

Hi everyone, good evening. Please I need advise, I just finished filling and submitting my husband application and I noticed the part for monthly spend I mistakenly put 800,000gbp instead of 800,000ngn, is this going to be a problem or should I cancel application and start over?

infosoftlife:

I assume you are concerned about yourself and your husband because your kids have dual citizenship.
The reason for traveling to the UK shouldn't just be about the birthday celebration, ensure you include other places of interest in the itinerary.
Even if you register your business, submitting a statement of account that the transactions are unverifiable will also be an issue.
ADVICE:
Since you are planning the trip for July, you can start immediately to remove the red flags by getting your CAC reg done within 5 business days it should be out, and open a business account. Also, let whoever transfers money into your account put a transaction description. (This helps instead of using only a cover letter to declare a transaction without a title).

Since your husband is the director ensure his business has an active status on CAC CRP.

Thank you so much, will do just that

Greetings everyone, pls I need guidance we are a family of 5 planning a trip for July.

I want to apply for a visit visa for my husband and myself to attend his sister 40th birthday in July, my kids have Usa passport.

she will be accommodating us as she has a 7 bedroom home (will this be a problem or should I just book an apartment online) she will also give us an invitation letter.

my husband has cac and tax and all that he is the sponsor but I have an online business it’s not registered but I’ve actively making sales over 4 years, will including my own account statements be an issue as I’ve no cac or tax to back it.

Kindly advice, thanks in anticipation.

Lol I didn’t read well, that will be Dallas

Graciousbee:
Hello dear fam,

Please I want to make an enquiry about BA. If you have 2 stop overs before your final destination, at what point do you get your luggages. Like travelling to Atlanta, and the port of entry is Dallas. Will baggages be released to passengers at Dallas or at the final destination which is Atlanta.

Thank you.

Atlanta
