Anyi3: Exactly... Maturity date was 15th August. I applied for the visa 29th August. The day the certificate was printed was 16th July.
So I was thinking they would see it as money lodged in 16th July and kept till 15th August


Or was I wrong. I appreciate your input.

KazNaija: They clocked 28 days. 3 statements. All gtb.

hannyminal: No, Justwise> She has friends and distance relatives in other parts of the UK not London. She wants to visit only for long time no see. She retired in 2006 and has travelled to USA and UK numerous times since then but this is the first time she is renewing her UK since the 5years visit visa expired in 2010. She earns good pension from her former employeers and has properties and shops wher she earns rental income.

hannyminal: Justwise, Vicjustice and other gurus, kindly assist with this please. Thanks

KazNaija: There were 3 bank statements all in the same name and their reason was insufficient funds when they didn't count the 3rd statement with over 5m

justwise: How many bank statements did you submit and did they all clocked 28days?

adaobi123: Move in day on Sunday

ducii: You said Nigerians in Nigeria don't send money abroad, i am just saying that some of them abroad get sent money folks here in Nigeria, some get sent money monthly for living expenses, some send money to family members struggling to pay their rent or mortgages, so it happens maybe you have not seen but it happens.

KazNaija: They refused it o. But they considered only 2 statements and left out the one with the money. Justwise do you advise i ask for review or reapply?

ducii: What about those that have kids in private schools in the UK, or those that their kids are in the university abroad don't they send money to their kids?

Anyi3: Thanks for responding. My actual question is "Are treasury bills accepted as a form of evidence of funds?"
Thank you

jamela: 50 inches. I don't have the actual dimensions.

Anyi3: New here. Unfortunately I received a visa denied. Maintenance funds the reason. Adding up the fees I need to show is twenty three thousand pounds and I have 28 thousand pounds. The problem was twenty two thousand pounds of my money was in treasury bills.

justwise was that wrong I want to make an appeal but appeal says I shouldn't attach any other information. I want to attach extra papers showing the treasury bill has been running for over a year.

jamela: Yes, never been more real than I am now.

passionup11: Hello guys,
I want to commend you gurus on the job u guys are doing here. Months ago I sought enquiries on whether a visa could be issued to me bearing in mind my circumstance then. I had been an over stayed in the UK my visa and had misrepresented facts when I reapplied and was denied 3 times. I had enquired whether with my situation, I would be given a visa under my circumstance. I was told by so many people that I had been banned for 10 years and I shouldn't even try to apply. Kindly note that I had served my 1 year ban as an overstayer. Some knowledgeable person said I will be throwing my money into the bin if I continue applying. I was distraught but I wasn't defeated when it comes to trying. I was nominated by my organisation for a course mid year in the UK.
I had to put in an application. Luckily , I was given a visa. Upon arrival at Heathrow, I was delayed for about 30 mins but was allowed to go in after clarifications/investigations inside their office. I went for my training and left. I learnt my lessons. what lessons did I learn? my viewpoint to situations like mine is that its not every misdemeanour that you commit that attracts 10 years ban. People must be able to assess their infractions and give an application a try. I learnt a lot here and I used the information I got from this forum to fill my form and state my situation in the space for additional information and explained in clear details every bit of my situation and I think that apart from God in situations like this, my explanation would have aided my application.

Chiichii2010: Just got approval mail now,applied on 15thsep at tele abj.am so happy.I USED A. FIXED DEPOSIT,but u must get letter from bank that the funds are available to you.thank you all,both justwise and every other guys.

spikesC: You didn't read this comment abi?



justwise doesn't know that the 85" S9 Series 9 Smart 3D UHD 4K LED TV costs £35,000
Now imagine it's gold plated

jamela: Could anyone pls inform me on the best way to transport my tv to the uk? Is it best to use a courier or just tag along with it to the airport and book extra luggage? If I use the second option, do I have to worry abt duty fees at the airport and I hope tv license ppl would not try tracking me to my house as I'm yet to get accomodation and don't want to be asked to provide one at POE.

ibe003: Let them go to hell joor, I love my E passport since I will use it to get any visa I like, its ok for me. Upon 9ija passport is low but you need to see how kenya immigration is admiring it,.. look, you need to be popular either by good or bad, we are the most popular black nation not because of any other thing but due to our arrogant, we are the smartest African country, oyibo people self are afraid of us, let them give us free visa whether they no go hear am. 9ija no day carry last.

queen47: Wow! Thank you so much. You know i was called for a second interview at deputy british high commission lagos and i submitted at abuja. I have been worried sick.

queen47: Hi All, i just got a mail from abuja.visaenquiries that my application has been approved and the visa issued, they aim to return my passport to VAC within 2 working days.

Justwise, this means i have been given visa right?

pansophist: As for the bolded, Are the majority of the nationals you mentioned desperate to immigrate elsewhere? compare that to Nigerians and get back to me. The nationals you also mentioned usually immigrate for legit reasons like jobs, family and less likely for greener pastures compare to Nigerians.

As for your other point, will you compare tha amount of crimes in Nigeria and amongs Nigerians in the diaspora to the crime commited by lets say Swedes (regardless of place of domicile)? In as much as I agree with you that a criminal will always be a criminal regardless of nationality and status, you still fail to see beyond the circumstance that makes people criminals. Nigerians are simply a victim of their native society who care less about them.

Most of the people you perceived as criminals are usually those at the bottom ladder of the society, with no viable way of survival and in order to make ends meet, they delve into criminal activities. The criminals in developed countries too are usually not poor people, but paedophiles, lunatics or socially excluded individuals. If you examine most countries all around the globe, you will realize that majority of the peaceful countries are the developed ones which the government cares about the citizens.

Crime and immigration will decrease to a very large extent if the country emerges as a condusive place to live, as simple as that.

nateevs: Lewis wins. I had my heart in my mouth wanderng if he could create that 27 seconds gap he needed for a last pit stop. 3pt gap. Well done LH.

nateevs: A crucial situation to witness is how Nico handles this new pressure. If Lewis wins this, he will be behind.
When was the last time he was behind? Before Monaco?

nateevs: Turning point in the title race.

pansophist: Now you table a very balanced point unlike chinom. He made it appear as if Nigerians are the only one commiting crime abroad, Third world nationals are all commiting crime abroad too. The Pakis, Indians, Chinese, Polish etc

What I am simply trying to pass out is that it wont get to this extent if the affairs of the citizens are not neglected, and given the fact that this crime of a thing got to an escalating degree after post-independence calls for logical reasoning. Why will the citizen immigrate when they feel comfortable? most folks that I know in Nigeria that are comfortable only go abroad for holidays and visit, not to live or try to commit one crime or the other

Human natural instinct (searching for a better life) will always prevail legally or illegally, it's all a survival method but different circumstances influence the direction of which it will talke.
