IGLE25: Good day all. I am new on nairaland. I want a clear answer to this issue that has been bothering my heart for long now. My younger brother applied for UK visiting visa sometime ago and he was refused. His refusal was based on the fact that he said he has an Aunt in the UK without enough evidence to prove that the person in question is truely his Aunt, that how are they sure that if he is given the visa that he will return to Nigeria after the expiration of his 6 months visa. He was given chance to appeal which he did. The issue on ground now is that his to be wife is coming to Nigeria for their wedding she is a British citizen. I want to know if his first refusal will have effect on him while trying to apply for visa to be with his wife in UK. Please what do you advice and what should he have on ground when the wife is ready to take him over because this is their plan... Kindly advice on this...It will not affect his application as long as he discloses previous refusal https://www.nairaland.com/823869/uk-visa-visa-appeal-process-part2 |
ShegsA: Please I need info on the University of Portsmouth. How's the school? Anyone attended it? If yes, how was your experience? What are the tips (living cost and all) that a Naija student needs to know about Portsmouth?I have lived in Portsmouth and done a short course in that university. Portsmouth uni is a good school, going up in ranking now and has good facilities. It has free bus ride for all students, so living far from uni is not a problem because uni bus runs from 7am till 10pm or later. Cost of living is a bit on the high side but still affordable, rents are not too expensive if you rent outside commercial road( the town center and uni areas). There are a healthy amount of Nigerian students there and student fellowship center where you will find quite a number of Nigerians. Portsmouth is just about an hr to 2hrs away from London with good road networks. |
adaobi123: If this prevents a tragedy from happening I'm all up for it. I'll be charging my phone before I leave my house.I support any security measure taken by any country to prevent unnecessary loss of innocent lives. People who want to moan can carry on. |
The US has declared that it will not allow mobile phones - especially iPhones and Samsung's Galaxy - onto US bound planes from some airports in Europe, the Middle East and Africa if the devices are not charged. The new measure, which is bound to cause chaotic scenes at airports around the globe, is part of the US Transportation Security Administration's effort to boost surveillance amid concerns that terrorists are plotting to blow up an airliner. As part of the increased scrutiny at certain airports, security agents may ask travelers to turn on their electronic devices at checkpoints and if they do not have power, the devices will not be allowed on planes, the TSA said. Increased vigilance: US intelligence officials are concerned that al-Qaida is trying to develop a new and improved bomb that could go undetected through airport security Increased vigilance: US intelligence officials are concerned that al-Qaida is trying to develop a new and improved bomb that could go undetected through airport security No doubt the new measures have the potential to create frantic searches for chargers at airports and one US source familiar with the matter said laptop computers are also among the devices security screeners may also require passengers to turn on. US officials are concerned that a cellphone, tablet, laptop or other electronic device could be used as a bomb by Yemen-based al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula and the Islamist Nusra Front, al Qaeda's affiliate in Syria. In 2009 a Yemen-linked bomb-maker, Ibrahim al-Asiri, built an underwear bomb used in the failed effort to bring down a Detroit-bound airliner, and his devices were implicated in other plots. Mom banned from Facebook after social media giant labels picture of her little girl on the beach child pornography Airplanes nearly collide over Houston's Bush Intercontinental Airport in second near-miss in two months Air New Zealand airplane forced to land in Los Angeles as woman collapses and dies mid-flight The Islamist Nusra Front, Al Qaeda’s affiliate involved in fighting with Syrian rebels to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad, is also thought to be plotting an airliner attack, according to intelligence reports. The TSA did not disclose which airports would be conducting the additional screening, however it was reported last week that passengers at British airports traveling to the US are facing extra checks on phones. An official told the BBC that London's Heathrow was among the airports. US officials singled out smartphones including iPhones made by Apple Inc and Galaxy phones made by Samsung Electronics Co Ltd for extra security checks on U.S.-bound direct flights from Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Special attention: The TSA in the US has announced that iPhones and Samsung Galaxy phones will come under strict scrutiny Special attention: The TSA in the US has announced that iPhones and Samsung Galaxy phones will come under strict scrutiny US security officials said they fear bombmakers from the Yemen-based al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) have figured out how to turn the phones into explosive devices that can avoid detection. They also are concerned that hard-to-detect bombs could be built into shoes, said the officials, who declined to be identified because of the sensitivity of the issue. A US official said that other electronic devices carried by passengers also are likely to receive more intense scrutiny and travellers may be asked to power up laptops, iPads, tablets and Kindles. A TSA statement said: ‘As the travelling public knows, all electronic devices are screened by security officers. ‘During the security examination, officers may also ask that owners power up some devices, including cell phones. ‘Powerless devices will not be permitted onboard the aircraft. The traveller may also undergo additional screening.’ Airlines or airport operators that fail to strengthen security could face bans on flights entering the United States, the officials said. The US Homeland Security Department announced on Wednesday plans to step up security checks, but they offered few details on how airlines and airports will implement them. Strict: The Transportation Security Administration will not allow cellphones or other electronic devices on US-bound planes from now on Strict: The Transportation Security Administration will not allow cellphones or other electronic devices on US-bound planes from now on US Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said at the time: ‘We will work to ensure these necessary steps pose as few disruptions to travellers as possible.’ An official familiar with the matter said the United States believes that while it is possible there may be some additional delays at security checkpoints, at most major airports passengers will not be seriously inconvenienced. The official said most passengers taking long-distance flights arrive well in advance of scheduled departures, leaving time for extra screening. But he said the United States could not rule out disruptions in countries where airport infrastructure and security procedures are less sophisticated. In his weekly radio phone-in programme, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg warned last week that travellers may have to get used to the extra checks. ‘I don’t think we should expect this to be a one-off temporary thing,’ he said. ‘We have to make sure the checks are there to meet the nature of the new kinds of threats.’ ‘Whether it is for ever – I can’t make any predictions. But I don’t want people to think that this is just a sort of a blip for a week. This is part of an evolving and constant review about whether the checks keep up with the nature of the threats.’ US-based airlines had little to say about the enhanced security. American Airlines spokesman Matt Miller said the Department of Homeland Security had been in contact with American on the issue, but declined to comment further. On guard: Western nations have stepped up security at airports after US officials said they were concerned that al Qaeda operatives in Syria and Yemen were developing bombs that could be smuggled onto planes On guard: Western nations have stepped up security at airports after US officials said they were concerned that al Qaeda operatives in Syria and Yemen were developing bombs that could be smuggled onto planes Luke Punzenberger, a spokesman for United Airlines said: 'We work closely with federal officials on security matters, but we are not able to discuss the details of those efforts.' US security agencies fear bombmakers from AQAP and the Islamist Nusra Front, al Qaeda's affiliate in Syria, are collaborating on plots to attack U.S.- or Europe-bound planes with bombs concealed on foreign fighters carrying Western passports, the officials said. AQAP has a track record of plotting such attacks. Its innovative bombmaker, Ibrahim al-Asiri, built an underwear bomb used in a failed 2009 effort to bring down a Detroit-bound airliner, and his devices were implicated in other plots. There was no immediate indication U.S. intelligence had detected a specific plot or timeframe for any attack. US officials say the United States has acquired evidence that Nusra and AQAP operatives have tested new bomb designs in Syria, where Nusra is one of the main Islamist groups fighting to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad.

Phema: Justwise, can he post details of the accommodation he has to offer? It might help some people.You know exactly what will happen if people are allowed to place ad here. You don't know who is who and there is no way one can verify each and everyone placing an ad here. |
GulliverVisas: It's standard practice for an applicant to apply for a visa in their country of origin. This has nothing to do with holding a Nigerian passport: this has been required of our clients that are Indian, Filipino and even British. In all of my years in this business, I have yet so see where a visa process is initiated outside of the applicant's country of origin UNLESS they have legal authorization to reside within the country from which they lodge their application. If you're truly interested in getting a USA tourist visa, keep calm and don't force a square peg into a round hole: the advice you received was golden 'APPLY IN NIGERIA'! Either way, good luck. ![]() |

[quote author=Peace-talk]Let me say no I am and its a visit visa.[/quote]If you are not a student and want to visit any country then its really unnecessary trying to forge letter of introduction of any school because you will get banned for doing that. |
dannyhola: Please house i will like to know the procedures of how i can reapply for Uk visa,Have been denied at my first application and when i tried to appeal i was told to go and reply ...Please what are the ways and procedures i can follow.Read this thread for any answer you want, your question has been discussed here over and over again. |
justwise: Since accommodation question was separated from living expenses then living expenses question will be things like feeding, transport within the UK and shopping (if you are going to do one) joxiri: @justwise I just have to repeat what i said before in bold, your figures have to be accurate and not guess work. If you are traveling in August then use August price because that is what you will be paying and not any general figure. |
[quote author=Peace-talk]Please I am in grave need of 'A student letter of introduction' to an embassy , please anyone has a copy of it? (original copy from a Nigerian institution)to be honest i need it as template to draft mine( you should understand.Please I will be more than grateful if someone can help as just this letter has been the one thing that has held me back so far for months now. N.B And I know most might think/advice I go get it from my school; If I could get I wouldn't be here soliciting.Thank you all who have contributed to nairaland in one way or the other it shows that no matter where or whom we re, Nigerians are still "ONE".Let's all keep it up.[/quote]Are you a student of any school in Nigeria and what type of visa are you applying for? |
@Amosiye Do not post people's picture here without their permission. We don't know if he scammed you or not, its merely an allegation and until he is found guilty or he accepted that he scammed you...pasting his picture here is wrong. |
joxiri: under income and expenditure sectionSince accommodation question was separated from living expenses then living expenses question will be things like feeding, transport within the UK and shopping (if you are going to do one) £500 is alot for feeding and transport if you are staying for a week or two. Make sure that your figures are realistic and not guess work..e.g the hotel figure, how long are you staying and how much a night in premier inn? |
joxiri: under income and expenditure sectionOk, please can you confirm the type of visa you are applying for and total amount you have in your account? |

joxiri: @ justwise cost of living should technically include transport food and accommodationCan you post the particular question you have problem with? I don't seem to understand what cost of living got to do with visiting visa. Post those questions you want clarification on....exactly how its in the form. |
joxiri: I am quite confused with that cost of living expenses What issue do you have about cost of living? Yes SA is the right answer. |
