good morning everyone, I'm about paying for my visa fee, but i noticed my passport expires Nov 2018, and i plan to schedule my interview appointment for April while planning to travel by July if granted. can I apply with this passport expiring Nov 2018 or apply for a new passport?
please guys.

@justwise @ekpotek

If someone states he's staying at a hotel in his visa application, gets the visa, cancels the hotel before he travels.
And he writes the address of a relative who wasn't mentioned on the visa application as the place he's staying in the UK. Will this cause problems at the POE? Someone is telling me that it doesn't matter, as the agents at the POE do not have the details of the visa application.

@justwise , @ekpotek hello guys. pls i need your inputs.1. i have 2 sisters in uk who are citizens. one is a divorcee and the other married. would be visiting uk soon, and i want to stay with the divorcee during my visit, but she is saying my other married sis should send in the necessary documents needed, cos she reverted back to using my dads first name instead of the last name we all shared. and which she feels might affect when writting the introductory letter and presenting the needed documents.
2. both my sis are offering to pay for my flight tickets, accomodation, feeding and any other expenses during my visit, hope this would not be an issue? though i work. should i include in the letter am paying for flight tickets, while my siblings handle the rest, to show my financial strenght? i await your inputs. thanks

Please I'm so confused on what to do right now. Application since 14th August 2017.( Family standard visa 6months) I just Called Sheffield via the contact number given to me at TLS office. I was charged 15.7GBP. Only for the person I spoke with to tell me that decision had been made since 13th September 2017. I've not gotten a pick up mail, until now. Now she's talking about Escalation on my passport. She asked for some information and I gave her correctly.
She gave me a Ref. No to call back in 15working days if I don't get a mail back from them.

Please House.
1.Is it that my passport is missing
2.Is it that its been sent to VI office because I've been going to TLS office at Ikeja because I applied there.
3.What could be the issue.

Please justwise,ekpotek, and other's please what should I do.

Thanks. That is the other question i have. It seems easy to prove that for my mom as she is a matron and works for the lagos state government so she can submit payslips and her salary account statement. My sister is a different case entirely. She just finished University and waiting to go for NYSC. She is not employed at the moment, not married and no kids. My question is this: Should i wait for her to start NYSC so that can be her 'tie' to the country. That way, she can apply and come in the middle of the program and that way, she can get maybe a letter from her LGI (stating she is in the program, duration and permission to travel) and bank account information that shows her allowee (Is 'currently undergoing NYSC' a strong enough reason to give the ECO that she is just visiting and is going to come back). I think since i will be sponsoring the trip, it doesn't matter how much she has in the account (please correct me if i am wrong) or is there another way i can prove her ties to the country.

The application is still a couple of months away but i just want to get my bearing right and start planning.

It was after I put a call to them that they mentioned where the error was from...

Bubbles123:
So does it mean that hospitals like oakbend don't give that kind of discount?

I was applying for a tourism visa with my fiancee and while filling out the electronic form to book appointment, my fiance mistakenly answered "yes" to the question "Are you 80yrs and above?".

Because of this single mistake, we couldn't schedule the appointment. On calling their contact centre, I was told the cause of the error (which is having answered wrongly to the question are you 80 years and above?).

I requested for a reversal in order to carry out the correct steps but I was shockingly informed that we have to make another payment. Himself and myself.
Meaning 128,000 naira (64,000 naira each) is gone.

It's so annoying and devastating owing to the fact that nothing can be done to this criminal act . this is scam! This is daylight robbery. The way these people see us is what I don't understand.

I made the wrong application then. Please what can I do to rectify this, my application is still with the home office. Do I need to write them or withdraw the application though am not sure if it's possible to withdraw now. Any advice on how to proceed please.

mzapplication:
Thank you. I read through these links before I applied.

My issue is at the point of making the application. On the visa4uk site.

Is this what I should have selected?

Lolas89:
please gurus in the house can you please help clarify this. My husband's visa is tier 2 general (leave to remain) from 2016-2019. Is that limited as well?

sobastical:
Honestly, I'm just tired. I was even trying to point out the disadvantages of that group and a guy mentioned me and even insult me. Most of them are newbies

peddy007:

Ferry6600:

Unfortunately, the account is still under ban,pls look into the issue, thank u.

mzapplication:
Okay. Thanks for the clarification.

I have gone back to the visa4uk site.

I am searching for the correct option. I cannot find "Tier 2 Dependent visa" on their website

mzapplication:
Tier 2 General

Lexus G, Justwise,

Please see email that I received today: 12 weeks on the dot

The UK Decision Making Centre is currently assessing the application submitted by the above named. We are unable to conclude the application at this time.

From the evidence submitted it would seem that your sponsor is currently in the UK on a Tier 2 visa and has limited leave to remain. Given this you do not qualify for settlement.

Given this it is recommended that you withdraw your settlement application and that of your 2 children and re-apply for a Tier 2 dependent visas for all 3 of you.

Please check the www.gov.uk webiste for full details of how to apply.

I am very confused and don't understand the mail. I have gone back to check to see where (or if) I made a mistake in selecting the visa type.

Is it not a settlement visa? I was going to call them but want to take some time to do my research, possibly speak to am immigration lawyer.

And the fees! Have I lost over 5k pounds just like this?

Ferry6600:
I didn’t write her name. Instead of her name I mistakenly wrote mine.

What's the meaning of that group you guys joining?
Don't you think it will kill flow here and obviously there won't be need for this thread...

Ferry6600:
Good day, I recently apply for uk visa for short term study. I mistakenly entered my mum name pls I need help.

BMCSlayer:
I was surprised at first when I saw it, but apparently its very important. And schools abroad require it.

Hello all. Abeg i kinda need help. I am presently in the UK with limited leave to remain and i want my mom and sister to come visit. i live in a big enough house and i have a job.

My question is how much do i have to make monthly to be able to sponsor the trip for both of them. If i am sponsoring the trip, do they have to provide any other financial documents from their own part? Also, is it possible for my partner to maybe sponsor my sister and i sponsor my mother if i don't make enough to sponsor both of them. If this depends on savings i have in my account, how much will i need to have saved up and be able to show in my back account that i can sponsor both of them.
Keep in mind they have never met my partner before.

cascas:
No, not at all, do they send a letter to the individuals address ?

Matrix07:
@ekpotek, @justwise Hello guys, I really appreciate how you people are helping solving confusions with UK visa application. Please I intend applying for a UK visit visa and it was stated that application cant be more than 3 months to intended date of travel. My question is when do they start counting the 3 months, is it from the date of biometrics or the date one applies online. Thanks in anticipation.

Hello gurus in the house, how do one knows if he/she was banned.
Please I need clarification here for paper and online TRV application?

Hello Good afternoon,

A friend of mine’s mom wants to invite Him and I to the Uk for 6 months visit. I am not related to her only friends with his mom. My questions are, 1. Do I need to worry about my bank statements?
2. I plan on sponsoring both our trips. Or do I send the money over to her so she sponsors it?
3. I am just 21years. How does this matter to my bank statements high or low?
4. What reasons could make them deny me the visa and approve my friends own. Thanks
