IGLE25: @justwise, please what do you mean by him disclosing his first refusal....
In the form you will be asked if you have been refused visa to the UK before....saying no to that question will not be a good idea.

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

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?
P.S: I got an offer for MSc Information Systems and I need tips cos I'm aiming for Summa cum laude cheesy
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.

Travel › Re: Uncharged Cellphones Banned On US Flights From Africa And Asia by justwise(mod): 9:17am On Jul 07, 2014
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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Travel › Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 2 by justwise(mod): 11:30am On Jul 06, 2014
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)
£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: @justwise
My exact thoughts thanks
The cost of accomodation at premier inn varies per night
But the total cost is 582 pounds
Also I just realised flight prices for the month of august are ridiculously high on average 280,000 naira
Now do I use this august average or a genral average of around 180 to 190k


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.

joxiri: under income and expenditure section

it says what is total cost of trip response 1700 pounds
total money you have for this trip response 1700 pounds
cost of aeroplane boat or train response 200,000 naira
cost of accommodation (premier inn)response 582 pounds
cost of your living expenses response 500 pounds

thats how it is on the form online as u can see cost of accommodation comes just before cost of living and
problem is does this cost of living expenses have to include the hotel as u can see i put 500 cos am assuming it doesn't include cost of accommodation as it has already been addressed in previous ?
however if it is to include hotel then cost of living certainly should be more than 500
i hope this clarifies my dilemma @justwise

joxiri: @ justwise cost of living should technically include transport food and accommodation
but on the form like a ? or 2 before the cost of living for the trip theres a ? for cost of accommodation
so when answering cost of living do u add all what i mentioned above and total it
for instance
this application hotel is costing 582 quid for 7 days
and if u now put cost of living for 500 which does not include accommodation then that amount is more than enough
but if the eco expects u to include the accommodation cost then your accommodation is actually more than the cost of living in total
do you see my dilemma and this dud just look stupid and most likely lead to a refusal
Can 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
I am assuming this is whilst in the uk
And also pls on the form where it says
Have u visited any uk territories or commonwealth country
South africa is a commonwealth country right
So this answer should be yes if you have visited SA?


What issue do you have about cost of living?

Yes SA is the right answer.
