beejaybida: Good afternoon, group. I am scheduled to attend a 1 wk course in London in October. This course is sponsored by the govt agency I work with. I am also entitled to air tickets and estacode to accommodation, feeding etc. I wish to travel with my wife and infant child. I wish to apply for a student visitor visa for myself and tourist visas for my wife and child. I have a 2yr tourist visa myself which will expire in 2015. My questions are:

1. On the form where my wife is asked "does your spouse have visa already"? Should she say yes because of my tourist visa or NO bacause I don't have student visitor visa yet?

2. My account has done inflows/outflows in excess of 5 million since January 2014 all traceable to my employers as salaries/allowances. However I currently have about 250k sitting balance and will have about 500k by month-end. Can I apply with just 500k in acct, writing in section 8 of the form that my employers will give me estacode that will supplement the 500k?

Note that I will have a letter of intro saying the employers shall cover all expenses for me but I shall be responsible for my wife and child.

Thanks in advance!

Jehovahshalom: thanks but this still doesn't give answer to the question,like the Nigeria passport holder it require of me to get tuberculosis test at approved center by UK in Nigeria ,now that am not in Nigeria what should I do,also vfs centre is not available here in the US as most of the citizen of US doesn't need visa to enter UK but me and my wife as permanent resident do need visa before admitted to UK

oladunwo: The issues r u didn't show your own personal account statement also there is no strong relationship between u and the cousin and also the uncle that is sponsoring you. My advise is that u show ur own statement of acct. since ua a dependant, it suld show in ur acct how money is being sent from family members to u, ur nxt application can be as a tourist so dat u won't have any connection with anyone in the UK And lastly, pray

Daveicing: The Difference in the Visa feess for 5 and 10yrs is just 50k my broda.... within the past 2 yrs, I have visited the UK for up to 4 times, and trust me i do frequent Paris every 2 months.... and I just feel it's wise to have a longer duration visa to put the issue of visa renewals to rest jare....

I was actually going to renew for 5yrs before i had a chat with my boss who got a 10yrs visa at the expiration of his 2yrs visa... So he was just advicing me that if i do not mind the difference in the visa fees, that i can always pay the difference of that 50k to have a 10yrs visa as against the 5yrs.

So my broda, i am only trying to be very careful even though i know it's makes a lots of sense when it comes to savings on the visa fees, with their new visa fees wey dem just increase for 6months, 1yr, 2yrs and 5yrs.... It is only the 10yrs visa fees wey dem no increase at all men.

These are my reason bro.. Simply Put... Wanna have a longer duration visa at a stretch and also have some savings on the visa fees.

joxiri: Yes you can apply for 10 yrs but I will advise you to go for 5 1st
In order to get 10 you will need to have either a solid job in nigeria, maybe family in the uk and also a very good travel history
If you have those then you can very much go ahead

fairyLady: i think thats what i'm sayin. Let me try to rephrase.
1. I submitted and paid online.
2. I withdrew the application and requested a refund.
3. I explained that i will be re-applyin once refunded.

Question is: can i make anoda application even thou they've not refunded the initial one?
Thanks

Daveicing: I wish to make a quick inquiry please.

I want to ask for an advice as regards my UK Visa renewal.

I currently have a 2yrs UK visa which will expire at the end of this month July 2014. My enqury is that i want to know ifI can proceed to request for a 10yrs UK visa at the expiration of my current UK visa.

I sent an email to visa.lagos@fco.gov.uk and the response they gave me is that every applicant is at liberty to request for any visa duration of their choice but it's at the descretion of the view officer to issue any duration he or she feels it's best for the applicant.

Kindly advice

fairyLady: noticed some errors on the tier4 section of the print out. My scholarshp is full tuition and the amount i typed in was half the tuition. I explained all this in the reason for refund though, no respone whatsoeva yet

fairyLady: Please help good people! I requested for a refund for my visa application...can i make another application with the same information while i await refund?

Tvegas: Ladies , you should all take a chill pill, i don't see a big deal when someone compares her experience between 2 hospitals. If truly el paso agents come here to hype their service then kudos to El paso for getting their marketing strategies right , this shouldn't get the MIHS clan angry.

I will rather love to see the MIHS clan telling us why we should use them instead of el paso. It's a faceless forum and it's wrong to blackmail people for sharing their mind, even going to the extent of calling them agents. I rest my case .

sheuk: So wats ur advice here, dnt leave me with this issue,what did u think will be our response if it happens? i have stated in my form that we knw someone in Uk b4 applyin for dem
