Thanks once again @justwise.

I also want to ask, I have been working in the new conpany without tax payment and it does not reflect in my payslip that I pay tax.

would this have any implications?
what can I do to solve this if any.
You don't need to present tax certificate, only if you run your own company.

Hello I'm interested but I have a wife and a six months old son. Is that okay with you? I'm a Phd student and my school is in London but I've not been able to secure cheap accommodation in London. I don't mind commuting from Birmingham to London


Hmmmm...are you for real? At least 4hrs journey? Have you tried Kent or even Luton which is about an hr away from London?

What is your budget for accommodation?

Hi, justwise and everybody in the house, please I want some advice from you. I have just been issued a uk visa for my PhD study in UK. They gave me 4 years visa for study. But I have my family in Nigeria, my wife and two children. Please can you advise me on what document I need to apply for their visa to join me and also how much my money should be in my bank statement, and if I need to hold the fund for 28 days. Please I look forward to your advice.

Thank you for the response @justwise.

please one other thing is my friend is asking me in what form can he send the invitation letter.

Can he write, scan and email it or in what form would be most acceptable.


Thanks in anticipation.
Any, does not really matter, if he is going to accommodate and take you around he need to include those details in the IV and proof of accommodation.

Hello.....
Please help me out

Someone I know applied for a visa to the UK for a conference....with company cover
She got a mail saying...

,.....UK Visa and Immigration has now assessed your application and made a decision. Your documents and the decision will either be sent back to the application centre.....where we will contact you by mail to come and collect them, or will be sent thru the courier you used.......frm Teleperformance

Then still today, she got one from the application centre viz:

...your passport and any returned supporting documents have now been sent back to you by courier....etc

It sounds like she was refused, right?

Can someone help me put please?...@justwise...anyone?
Thanks

Pls how much is the minimum amount that should be in my Dads account for my undergraduate studies programme before going for my interview .
A friend of mine was denied visa for misspelt name sometimes last year . Can he use a fake WAEC document ? And do they use any electronic device to confirm.
Yes he can, you don't need anybody here to discourage/encourage you to commit crime, just get on with it.

Good day all, I appreciate the useful and helpful information provided on this thread and I commend the effort of does who out of selflessness provide them.
My Situation: I want to apply for a renewal of my 6 months Visa to 2 years

Blocking points:
1. I have left the company that stood as a sponsor for the first application and I am now with another coy with a salary of 200k monthly on a 3 months contract, however, I have spent 7 months with the new coy but they are yet to make me a staff, only renewal of the contract.
2. I plan to apply 1st week of Dec and by then I will have up to 500k in my account, but currently I have around 100k. but money goes in and out of my account every day.



My Question:
1. Can I still renew or do I start a fresh application

2.If I am to renew the visa; how do I go about it

3. How do I go about the employment letter; my employment letter reads 3 months? do I ignore it or don't include it in the application?. I can get payslips and my bank statement reveals payment from the new coy for the past 6 months

4. I have a British friend who is willing to invite me and I have pictures of us together from my last visit to the UK: Do I need the invitation letter

5. can I present my account with 500k balance and still state in the application that I want to sponsor myself?
1&2...are the same question...the process of renewing and applying for the first time are the same, no difference.
3. Use the blank space in the form to explain your contract situation, tell them that it's a rollover contract at the expiration of the initial 3 months.

4. Yes you need IV from your friend.

5. Do the budget of the trip....and answer these questions....will 500k buy me ticket, transport within the UK, shopping etc and will I have money left to survive when I come back to Nigeria?

I couldn't agree more with you seun, but for the sake of avoiding unnecessary argument with the young man; I suggest he is entitled to his own opinion and my concern is for applicants reading his comments who would think VO won't worry about scores and I am saying this for record purpose, The test score is one of the major criteria in 90% of all F1 student visa success.

Thank You
No we have to make an afford to set the record straight here, lets not give people false hope, if the VO asked if you took GRE exam and demanded to see it then score matters.

He ask for your GRE to know if you took the exam and has nothing to do with your scores.
This is the genesis of this argument ^^^ and its misleading.

GboyegaD:
I never said people shouldn't get good scores if you read through the transcript. My point is you don't get debited based on your scores and if you have to pay for an exam you need study well to get good grades however, if you don't do too well you don't have to beat yourself up.

GboyegaD:
We are hyping the role of the VO here. He decides if you get the visa our not based on his overall satisfaction. When he ask for your standardized tests, he isn't asking to assess you and he doesn't decline your via based on your scores.
I'm sorry but you are wrong. What is the point of taking an exam if the score does not matter? To know if you know how to take an exam? Of course the VO will be worried if an applicant going to US as a student hasn't passed GRE exam. If the VO bothered to ask if you took GRE and requested to see it then all eyes are on the SCORE

Really? So why bother taking the exam if the score does not matter? VO looked at your GRE paper and you did badly then the VO said....it doesn't matter....just want to know if you attempted it?
