@justwise @OlowoB and other members, I'm not sure you guys remember my case. I was the one that lost my scholarship cos I cud not save enough for maintenance. Now I do and I will be travelling with my partner.

I will appreciate any advice coming from you all in order to have a successful visa application process. I started counting my 28days from 25th November. I have my CAS already.
My questions
1) Can I print the statement out on the 23rd Dec.( Pls note that my resumption date is 11th Jan 2017)

2) My partner has applied to renew his passport since a month ago at Ikoyi but they kept saying 'no booklet yet' . Can we go ahead and apply using his old passport which will expire in April 2017 while we wait for the new one?

3) Is black market the only way to pay for the visa fees & health surcharge or can you suggest any other means.

Every comment will be appreciated. MrsF, Mrs Daniel, Fizzle, Umarw, everyone!

PS: The guide and support you all give to one another on this forum is incomparable. Una too much!

Sorry i did not overlook your post.

1. Printing it out on the 23rd will not add up to 28days.

2. You need a passport that has at least 6months validity left on it

3. I don't know about that but if you have dollar account you can use that.

waynee2baba:
Kind of but I expected it yesterday tho. Just keeping my fingers crossed. I'm nervous, but it's routine. ☐

The timing is not bad as people get reply in less than 15 working days usually. I guess you will get collection email from them next week.

Billiondoe:
Hello house, I was refused visa for winter. I want to submit my application again, am I not supposed to request for another admission letter for September before submitting my application again or I should submit with the January acceptance letter? Justwise michV

You need to contact your school to know if you really need a new admission letter or use the one you have now.

waynee2baba:
I just received an email today that my passport is ready for collection. I'd give a brief overview of the whole process and when I get my passport I'd drop the full transcript.

Application submitted(ABUJA VAC CENTRE): 7th December, 2016
Appointment date: 14th December, 2016.
Received by UKVI in Sheffield: 15th, December 2016.
Notification mail for documents dispatched: 6th January, 2017.

*I'm going for an undergraduate degree
*I didn't even get a mail that a decision has been made
*I paid for courier
*It took approximately 14 working days to get a mail that my documents have been dispatched.


I wasn't utterly perfect, but I'm just being hopeful that my application would be successful. With God, nothing is impossible.


Cc: @Justwise and all.

Are you worried that it came out too quick?

segzy0:
Hello @Justwise and other gurus,

I notice my pay slip doesn't show tax deductions every month, can that be a problem when applying for a visa?

Thanks for your swift response as always

No idea, I don't know how Nigeria payslip look like but here in the UK payslips outline tax payment and every other reductions

Hello lovely people and happy new year.

I want to apply for a visiting visa to the UK with my daughter this month.I have lived there(legally) before and returned to Nigeria 6years ago but haven't visited since then cos I have been unemployed.My sister is a UK citizen and wants to invite me and my daughter to visit before my husband visits maybe next year.I am self employed as well as my husband.

My sister would be the one to sponsor the trip but not sure of what financial evidence I would have to present on my own part.

Please what are the requirements and documents to hold for the application.I have checked the website(gov.uk) for requirements but I just want to get information from someone who probably has had a similar case in order to get a clearer and better picture.

I hope to get a response soon.
Many thanks and God bless you all

Since you run your own business you need to provide your business account and your personal account.

In terms on documents to submit..we have listed that here far too many times all you need to do is read few pages back.

Even the website you visited listed documents needed of you.

All my cards have been declined. Foreign and local

You need to contact your bank or the card issuing authority

Isoken2000:
@justwise thank you for all you are doing on this thread

I was refused a visiting visa in November 2016 as a result of irregular deposits in my account. I plan to re-apply first week of February. I read your suggestion on this thread that we should plan not to spend more the equivalent of 2 months salary or little above that on our planned trip. my question is this

1. Although am applying first week of February, am planning to travel 1st of April, will N350k as cost of trip be too much (my cousin who is inviting me is taking care of accommodation and feeding). the 350k is for ticket, transportation and miscellaneous.

2. in the form, what do I fill in the space for accommodation, feeding as my cousin is taking care of that

3. what is the difference between cost of trip and how much you have available for the trip? can it be the same amount

4. my salary is N100,070 after tax, I bake and decorate halls on weekends and holidays but it not every weekend and the amount is not specific, it can be as low as 30k or as high as 100k. so what do I fill in the space for total monthly income from all source.

5. I also, wanted to find out if I decide to register my business, will they accept it along side with my salaried job, seeing am working full-time but run the business on the side

6. if it's acceptable, and I decide to register it now, I learnt it's only tax receipt I can be given for the year not tax clearance. certificate. will they accept tax receipt

thank you

1. That will not be too much if you provide paper evidence to explain the additional income from your side business

2. There must be other options apart from hotel in that form, look for one related to family.

3. If the actual cost of the trip is 300 and you are traveling with 400 then 300 is the cost of the trip while 400 is what available for the trip. If things did not go as budgeted you still have some money to cover up.

4. Add up all your monthly income.

5. That will look desperate, you register a business just about when you about to apply for visa

6. No idea

rollybaby:
@justwise @greene @worry etc pls come to my aid. I have a 6 months UK visit visa that will be expiring by April this year. I will like to know if its possible to apply for a work permit from Nigeria, travel this january and come back few days before my visa expires. I visited last year November for about a week plus.

Note: I really wanna leave Nigeria.

Also I HV a legal online business I am running which I think I can operate from there to mk small money for myself.
Pls ur advise is needed.

That is almost impossible

Dammysmart:
pls I just wanna ask for a friend, he's applying for UK visa but he WS denied USA visa some 7month ago, pls should he click 'yes' to the question of 'have U been refused a visa before'? pls @justwise

Sorry I don't answer such question, ask your friend to do the right thing

bluepresidents:
Hello good people
Please I need guidance from people well experienced with the following issues
1.I have almost finished my online UK visa application and I am yet to see any place where documents can be attached or added.Does it mean documents are only submitted when u go for appointment at UK visa centre?
2.l learnt that documents submitted at visa centres must be original.However,my sister who is going to provide accommodation for me during my stay in UK is only going to scan and email her supporting documents to me.is this going to be a problem?
3.while filling my online visa application form in the column for income and expenditure,a question is asked"do u have savings,properties or other income for example from stocks and shares".when I click YES it then ask "total monthly income from"
-savings and investments
-properties and rents
-stocks and shares
-public funds or benefits
-other sources including friends and families

Please am confused on whether to click YES or No to the question that ask if I have savings ,properties or other income because the only thing I have is my monthly salary,moreso,there is an earlier column that have already asked me if am employed and my monthly salary which I have already answered to the affirmative.
Thanks

1. I think the new rule they introduced removed online uploading of documents, you take your documents to visa centre to be scanned.

2. You can go with that it will be accepted.

3. That question is simply, do you have savings or not? Property, shares etc

There is student visa thread for both countries here look for them and ask your question.

VisaOfficer:
Yes, noticed that. Normally, we're the ones who do the banning

@Ademide05


Please stop spamming this thread with your posts, this is the wrong thread for such question.

VisaOfficer:
This is a question for USCIS. In general, however, you should carefully review all of your materials and sign anything that requires a signature. Working with an immigration attorney can often help mitigate these issues.

VO

VO sorry you were banned by antispambot. Unbanned now and post restored

Aashik:
Good day guyz, I don't know if this is the right section but I really need help on how to obtain an international passport, the cost and the processes involved. Very urgent. Thankxz

Look for many other threads here about this same topic and post this.

Godiloveu:
both,
most important is the paying of agent 400k for 3month visiting/Tourism visa. pls can u help with dat.?

Canadian visiting visa fee is just 100 Canadian dollar which is about 23,000 naira and you want to pay an agent 400,000K just to fill a form for you?

Are you so lazy that you can't fill a form and attach your documents to submit either online or offline?

What do you think an agent will do that you can't do?

You can't convert visiting visa to PR

segzy0:
Hello Nairalanders,

I would like to confirm if it's okay to book a hotel that says "No deposit will be charged"?

I want to know, if not I may persuade them to charge my card for one night as to avoid being declined during visa processing.

Kindly respond.

Thanks

Go for that if that is the hotel's policy

Beautifulswan:
Please house, for the a Point based system dependant visa(spouse) must the bank statement for proof of funds for maintenance be mine? Or I could use my husband's bank statement since he's the main applicant.

cc; justwise

Sure you can definitely use his bank statement because he is your sponsor

glowithdan:
Not 100% valid

Can you explain that?

Godiloveu:
pls is dis info still valid?

Yes.

If i may ask..what aspect of that post are you referring to? Converting visiting visa to PR or paying an agent 400K plus for visiting 3month visiting visa?

Aguanomwan:
They refused my visa because I was having irregular deposits in my account don't know how to reapply again please tell me what to do. But I have a barbing shop but not registered....please tell me what to do because they normally deposits almost everyday in my Acc.

You to explain that in your application form. Use the blank space for additional information to explain it

Isoken2000:
@ justwise

thank you for all you are doing on this thread. Happy New Year

please am still working on Re-applying for a UK visiting visa invitation February. like I earlier posted, I was refused on the 16th of December 2016 because of un-explained deposits in my account. I posted here that in addition to my regular job, I do baking and hall decorations on weekends and holidays. from my previous post, you agreed I should submit the receipts explaining these deposits in addition to a covering letter.

my question is, will the receipt be acceptable since the business is just on the side and isn't registered or should I just submit only the covering letter.



Pls respond.

thank you

It's better to include it than nothing even as the business is not registered

Aguanomwan:
They do pay me 180k per month.... £850 is just for my bta I will book my flight ticket in seperete money, please educate me on this because I want to apply again please .

You are not doing this right, please take your time and read this thread. How to budget and answer questions like..how much you have for the trip and how much it will cost you..

We have discussed the breakdown many times here so take your time and do some reading here.

Nothing like bta, make your budget from the available money in your account and try not to spend more than 2months of your salary..little above that is not bad
