Haha snow can last here, but I can still drive on it, so it dont really bother me

Yep I bought a job-lot of stock, ladies dresses which I am putting on ebay, I got them at a great price and they are all new with tags

I can only sell 20 per month at the moment on ebay, so only about 5 a week should be fine, I only sleep 4hrs a night so loads of time after work.

Oh great! Employ me to look after it then as I'm an eBay addict

Portsmouth86:
Not much savings however my account never reaches zero, plus i have an overdraft of £1000 which i never use and have no debts

Pompey is ok has been hot past few week, rained past few days though

I have started a business, hope it takes off soon.

Oh ok! Leave it out then since your salary is enough.

Pompey always has the best weather...snow never last longer than necessary on the ground...you may not know this until you visit Yorkshire where I used to live.

You combining business with full time job?

Portsmouth86:
Great

Phew on the money in his account, my salary more than meets the requirements, will I also need to show any savings?

Cheers, Hope you are well

I say leave no stone unturned....if you got money in your savings show it....it shows you are capable financially.

Yea I'm good....thanks for asking.

How are you getting on?

Portsmouth86:
Ok great thank you, will he also need to pay the NHS surcharge at the same time as his application or can I do that?

Does he need to show money in his account, his salary is pretty damn sh**t so rarely has any disposable income.

Kind regards

Yes the NHS surcharge needs to be paid at the process.

He does not need to show any money...all eyes are on your pay as the sponsor

Hi all

My Hubby will be applying in November, I am gathering all the upto date paperwork, evidence and such like.

What documents will my husband need to take with him (I will have all the required docs to send to Sheffield when requested) I will be making his application here and paying online and then giving him the password etc, can I do that?

Thank you in advance

K

Almost all the documents will come from you. Only the TB certificate and the completed application form that need to come from him and submitted in Nigeria, the rest will be sent to Sheffield....
Allow him to apply from Nigeria and make the payments from there

pipper4all:
Hello People (Justwise).... So my 14 years old nephew was refused visa on grounds that
1. His birth certificate was just issued without giving satisfactory reason where the first one was
2. No prove that he has met his uncle (me)

One of the ladies outside the visa centre advised my sister to apply for a review that the reasons makes no sense. Please house, advise me on this case. What should we do. I really don't have pix with him and he didn't get a birth certificate when he was born either (careless Nigerian way of life ) help pls. Thanks

It's always a problem when people apply for visa with a shiny birth certificate even when the child was born years ago.

You can try AR and see how it goes.

Hello Good People in the House,

I need your guide on like questions or what to be avoided on this trip of mine. I came back from U.K on a 6 days conference trip. (I spent just 6 days as stated in application) but now I intend travelling back in September on leave to visit my cousin who had earlier invited me for visit but refused ( i did not appeal because I was not keen to travel then but not have my visa which will expire before the end of the year). Is there anything I have to do. I intend spending 25 to 30 days in U.K with on approved annual leave from my office. Thanking you for guide. Regards to Justwise for always being there at all time. God will continue to enlarge your coast.

There is nothing special you have to do really.

ladelade11:
Please house, I just need an advice. Presently am on IT and plan visiting the UK. I have 2 bank accounts and both has more than a million plus. I wantu know the steps to take. That's al

Do you have documents to support the source of that money?

yjb85:
Those documents are good but i think they will take just the TB certificate and the application form and ask you to send the rest to SHEFFIELD.

So the best thing to do is to go with all the documents then they will take the ones that are needed in Nigeria and tell you what to do with the rest

Thank you @justwise God bless your soul.

All the very best with your application

tay0:
Thanks justwise. My payslip is above 300k monthly, investments in fd letter from my bank stating my travel plans with kid and spouse hope that will suffice. Thanks

Sorry but this is not a list, I don't know how to give you my opinion based on this.

FrontPageLawyer:
Professor Justwise and the other senior lecturers in the house. Please I need your urgent attention.

The questionnaires are straight, but to avoid mistakes, I have decided to run here for this very question.

Question: Please enter details of what you plan to do whilst in the UK.

Answer I wish to Give: Pre-Inspection of equipment at XYZ LIMITED, UNITED KINGDOM ( Please note; that is exactly what the company stated in the invitation letter to my company)

Will my brief answer be sufficient?

Can I fill application with CAP LOCKS?

Thank you.

If that is what the visit is all about then yes the answer is good enough.

Don't fill it with cap locks only if you are instructed to do that.

@All

Please this is not politics section, lets not derail this thread.

Thank you.

yjb85:
Your hubby need to submit his own package to Sheffield while you submit yours in Lagos.(That is if he is based here in the UK)

You can submit your own call log if you call your husband from time to time but if he is the only one making the calls then his own call log alone will do

Those documents are good but i think they will take just the TB certificate and the application form and ask you to send the rest to SHEFFIELD.

So the best thing to do is to go with all the documents then they will take the ones that are needed in Nigeria and tell you what to do with the rest.

Thank you Iblaw, Blessedfavoured and Justwise for your responses, you guys are amazing.

Hi Justwise,

These are the documents i hope to present when i make my application Salary Statements (We arent issued payslips tho at my organisation, will state that on my cover letter), Savings account statements, Employment letter, Introductory letter from my employers, Hotel reservation, a letter of consent to travel from my wife, with a copy of our marriage cert to verify her signature.
What else do you advise i add?

1. The bank statement has to be your salary account and if you have other payment other than your salary then you need to explain it.

2. Family pictures will help your application

3. Add your property, car documents if you have one.

4. Mini-budget of what the trip will cost you....booking a flight is not necessary but add the actual cost in your budget.

5. Outline things you tend to do in the UK within that period.

You don't need to add any prove of tax payment unless you own the company.

Good for her....rather than jumping from one church to another looking for miracle she went out to do what many women will shy-away from

No oooo, he wants a better life for me n others. He works with a good company here.

Then pack your stuff and move to US and stop wasting people's time here. You will learn from the experience.

Iamoilprince:
l[b]ol. I really cant tell the reasons behind his action[/b]. But am hopeful at oga @Seun will sort this.
If i get clarification that am wrong then I sha take precautions asap.

You know the reason because you have been banned before for the same offense, you just finished serving that ban 1st of August and you immediately started doing the same dam thing again.

Melahou:
The wind of change is everywhere

maybe the mod is also into TRAVELS and TOUR and as such
not willing to compete with anyone...

or you may be invited by DSS as well

Baseless assumption

Iamoilprince:
Dear Nairalanders, Am really confused here. I'v been in this forum for ages now, have always had something as my signature. I learnt the signature thing from many nairalanders. But got a mail from a moderator of travel section @justwise urging me to remove my signature if i want to be posting on the travel section. I didnt get such warning from Mods of POLITIC, CELEBRITIES and ROMANCE sections where am also activr in. Please i really need clarification from the moderators if its against the rule of Nairalander then I will have any option than to remove it.

Am writing this to futher seek clarification from other moderators, and will obey if clarified.

below is a screenshot of the mail from the mod and my signature. Thanks.

cc @ seun @ ishilove @ freiburger, @ r231

Yes you are using the ad on your signature to circumvent the rule against placing ads in areas where adverts are explicitly allowed.

You go around posting randomly then ask people to see your signature.

Iamoilprince:
check my signature n call me or whatsapp me

Iamoilprince:
check my signature n call me or whatsapp me

You have an ad here https://www.nairaland.com/2409119/cheapest-airline-tickets-free-travel which is where ads are allowed in travel section

omojesu202:
though i have some jobs experiences as I have done up to 4 different jobs but I do not consider my self a smart person. i'm not a hustler like that and a very quiet person and also I have a bad first degree (3rd class).
what's the problem now?
when he told me, I asked him what I will be doing there? he considered it a bad question.
that when I get there I will definitely find my way. me I don't think I'm that rugged oooo...
Abeg, if u have experience help me out as it would be foolish to reject such offer.

Your brother wants you to move to US to work illegally and run from the authorities as long as you can.

Samvicky:
To God be the glory. I got my EEA family permit visa at last after 1 year. Thanks everyone

Congratulations!

OGreene:
I submitted d tax clearance doc sha. Dunno if it's compulsory or just additional

Not needed as you are not the company/business owner

yjb85:
Did you submit any sick note from a doctor in the UK to support that?

We hard this argument here couples of months ago, for the fact that you were given 6months visa does not mean you can stay as long as you want within that 6months, your visa technically is tired to the number of weeks or months you told them that you will be staying during your application.

There is nothing much you can do now..go ahead and apply for your spouse visa and state honestly what happened and apologise, you may be forgiven or they will refuse you and give you the right of appeal then you take it from there.

@justwise thank you so much for your advice i will aply and pray everything goes well.
please i need some clarifications since i will be applying for settlement visa in october:

-is my hubby submitting application form here in Lagos or Sheffield
-do i need to print my own call log cos he has printed his or can we use his own
waiting for your response. thank you in advance.
-

Your hubby need to submit his own package to Sheffield while you submit yours in Lagos.(That is if he is based here in the UK)

You can submit your own call log if you call your husband from time to time but if he is the only one making the calls then his own call log alone will do

Poshpearlie:
Hi everyone, I'm new here and have read some threads back. I'm applying for a UK tourist visa, I'm gainfully employed. I want to ask if the tax clearance card is part of what I need to submit. Thanks

Hey justwise,

I salute you and everyone else for all the help you have rendered through this thread, God bless you real good. A quick one.

1. i intend making a short trip to the UK later in the year (7days, will stay at a hotel in london). wont be going with my wife cause she cant get off work as she just got back from maternity leave. i have a few accounts but i will be using the statements for the savings account in which i save consistently with. payments of 80k monthly as savings, current balance is about 1.1M. my monthly pay is 350kper month and i have traveled severally over the past 5yrs (training and family Vacation) i currently hold a valid US visa, as i was there earlier in the year.
How do would you advise i approach my application.

2. A friend got refused some months back cos he had a large deposit in his savings account prior to his application that wasn't explained. tho in truth he was paid one of his allowances, so he simply transferred it from his current account into his savings account. he presented both statements, but alas.
He wants to reapply, any tips for him?

thanks in anticipation.

You have a good immigration profile and your salary is good, list those documents you have for the application lets see if anything is missing
