SisterCaro: i really dont know which point you are drivin at with this...? i already some said who were not illegal immigrants including South Africans fell victim. So i dont see why you want to go over and over again just not to reach a sensible conclusion at the end of it.
Simple English. Aim was attacking illegal immigrants but the end result was even those who do not belong to that category were adversely affected Bear with me SisterCaro, i went to night school, not as clever as you are. I guess the point i'm trying to make is that the attackers targeted foreigners in general who they claimed was taking their jobs, it got nothing to do with their immigration status. |

SisterCaro : Living in a country without proper papers is illegal and most of the attacks happened to be targeted at most of those in that catergory. That is not to say others who are not part of that category did not fall victim. And yes some where engaging in unlawful activities including trading without appropriate licences.Yes but how do you know if i'm an illegal immigration if you saw me on the street? |

Marisley: There is a place in the biodata page of his passport with Authority/Autorite. Whatever that is writen under it should be what he fills in his form. Nigerian passport can not be issued by any other authority other than Nigerian govt. |

SisterCaro: you clearly came on the thread with an intention to make SA look as bad as possible and thats wh you keep insisting on this.
I have lived in SA for over a decade and i can say that if you live in surburbs and make your money legally you will not be victim to some of these things.
You cannot claim to know a whole lot more about a place you have never been to. Let me guess you get you info from selected websites on the net? And you always assume all you read is 100% true?
In that case we can all read a few websites on violence and gang wars in brooklyn and conclude that the whole of USA is filled with gangs and drug dealers  So are you suggesting that those who got killed, injured or shops looted are engaged in illegal activities? |

nenelistic: Good evening Just wise, I am back again O. No vex. I earn about 162,000 monthly, I would just recalculate part 4 which is my income and expenditure to fit into my disposal income. I mistakenly included cost of flight and hotel when asked how much I will be spending personally on my trip to the UK, so that inflated my expenses. I will also indicate that I just renewed my rent and also currently taking ACCA classes with documents to back my ties even though I know it doesn't really count. If all that doesnt work. I will just rest mbok. Bro that is not a mistake, you can't budget for the trip without including those items. |

sandraa: @justwise She siad company is paying for the trip! Leave allowance for the trip is 250k excluding accomodation since she is staying at her sisters! The money has been paid into her account and its showing as leave allowance.
She has a total of 600k+ and she said she wants to spend 300k for trip! She wants to print her statement immediately and submit application immediately!
Please will this fly A letter from human resourses to state she has been paid the trip allowance already..
Person has travelled twice to uk, blood sister with same surname a citizen!
Please guidiance on this matter again!
Thanks If the company is paying for the trip then good but why is she staying with her aunt? The company need to pay for her accommodation, it's up to her to still stay with her sister but accommodation need to be included in the budget as far as visa requirements are concerned. She can pocket the accommodation money from her company and stay with her sister  but to get a visa her company need to show that. |

A decision has been made on your UK visa application. Your application will be despatched within 48 hrs. If anyone contacts you advising that your application is still under consideration or that they can influence the outcome of your application in any way, please disregard as they cannot. You should not expect to receive any further notification from this office.
Kind regards,
Lagos Visa Section
My concern is I didn't get dis kind of mail wen I was given a 6 months visa.
What do u think guys? Wait until you get your package, many applicants received the same email but it doesn't mean you have been given or refused. |

nenelistic: Yes I did. sources of income from friends and Family And personal savings. I started as a graduate trainee in August 2013 and got full employment as management trainee in January 2014 Till date Money from friends and family is not considered as an income, that is more of a cash gift and it can't act as your tie to Nigeria but your salary will which is why the amount you earn is considered. As it stand your salary is your only verifiable source of income. |

number of posts per day= 16046÷265=60.1=60. no of posts / hour= 60÷24=2.5=2 ( .5 can't hold)
we shd get a committee to do some research to calculate the number of UNIQUE POSTERS n compare posts on reddit n anyother forum, this is potentially the world's fastest thread. hopefully I will post ma goodnews here. Second fastest in this section, Canadian student visa thread is the fastest. |

nenelistic: A letter from the other signatory stating explicitly how much of my savings I was entitled to and her bio data page. I went through their immigration guide and using a joint statement has never been a prerequisite for refusal. My spending is restricted on that account hence my decision to still maintain it as opposed to just opening another account and transfering money just for the purpose of visa application. 1.Do you declare any other source of income during your application? 2. How long have you been working with your company? |

nenelistic: Hi Justwise and Vicjustice. I have just been refused a visa on the following:
Please guide me as to how to reapply. I want to reapply on Thursday and book my appointment for Friday. For the joint account. I have runned that account since 2011. The same account I used for my tier 4 visa application in 2011 and it has been functional since then. I put my savings in that account because it is not easily accessible and I find that I spend less on that account. I submitted two account statements. One that had my salary with a balance of 99,000 and the this joint account. Am I not allowed to hold my savings anywhere I please? They also spoke on assets and no dependant, can I show them my car documents and my newly renewed tenancy agreement. If that can convince them that I ain't going nowhere. It's quite frustrating. Pls guide me through my next application pls Your application was refused mainly for financial reasons, you don't have enough for the trip. Canceling the hotel booking also contributed to the refusal because it shows that you can't even afford to accommodate yourself in the UK |

I just checked the above link with regards to the NHS surcharge, when applying, which 'visa route' do we have to choose in the section -
'About the person you are joining in the UK'.
The partner is a UK National, applicant based in Lagos but the link is asking for the 'expiration date of the visa' of the UK National.
Could you please check and advise which option to choose?
Thanks. Have you tried paying through the main application form? |

sandraa: @Justwise do blood relation need to drop house tenancy papers?? (Scanned) , bank statement etc just cos she will stay there for 5days?? Plus can it be scanned to be printed here in naija? sandraa: She is sponsoring! Yes if her relative is accommodating her then they need to send her tenancy agreement just to proof that they have adequate accommodation for her. That can be scanned and emailed to her. If she is paying for everything else apart from the accommodation then there is no need for bank statement from them. To sponsor herself she need to proof that the conference is related to her job as self employed person, but if she is employed by a company then the company should be footing the bills and not her. |
