peteafrik88: Thanx boss... You have been doing a great work here. One thing bothering me is that of accomodation. How can I secure a cheap place I can stay on arrival since I dont know anybody or friend there, from where I can now search fir a better place? I learnt from previous posts that it is cheaper and better to stay off campus, I have been thinking of how to secure a comfortable and yet inexpensive one so that I can have a place I can stay on arrival.

zoomzu: Thanks a lot, I would ensure to to that and also attach the Bill of Laden of each cars showing my name and address and the consignee with details of each vehicle attached to the sales agreement since I do not have a registered company name under which I sell my goods.

Thank you.

dove30: . Ohhh that's very ok and good please can I be there sponsor or can my mother sponsor them.

peteafrik88: Well, I have been following this forum for sometime now. Hopefully, I intend coming to the University of Portsmouth to study a business inclined undergraduate course. By the grace of God, I should be there by january.
I was hoping our folks out there will keep updating us on a lot of survuval tips, so that we would not miss them out as we are preparing.
What part of UK are you in?

dove30: I had a friend that was a student and. Wrote aletter to invite his mother come visit him last year in london I was suprised and felt he was lieing when he told me.I don't really want them to come and stay with me I just want them to have a visa that enables them to come spend some time in the uk with me.there should be a route to that.

zoomzu: @ Justwise, thanks for your response, I am thinking of filling the application by February 2013. God willing, the cars should be sold by January.

zoomzu: Experts in the House, to buttress further on my initial post directed to Justwise, I am planning to apply for Family Visiting Visa for my wife and our daughter. She's to go on the invitation of her brother in-law for Easter Holiday. I am to sponsor the trip while her brother in-law who own a permanent resident visa is to accommodate them.

Here is my status, I have been with organisation A since for some years where I earn 50k, march last year, I am seconded to Organisation B which is a baby to Organisation A but affiliated to UNESCO on a 2 year contract of 100k per month while I am still retain my responsibilities and position at Organisation A in addition to responsibilities at Organisation B. (1) I own a property with construction ongoing even my wife's name is on the Deed of assignment of the property though we were still dating then now we are married with a kid. (2) I have PFA Statement with Balance of like 200k. (3) Money comes in and out of my account often cos I does buying and selling, the balance as at today is around 120k. (4) I just bought a car of almost 900k about 3 months ago for family use. I have another 2 cars on ground for sale at the moment, I bought them from UK with their BoL's in my name and my Home address.

Now my question, going by what I have as my current account balance, I am sure it is not enough to present but on the issue of avoiding lump sum in my account, these cars could be sold any moment from now and the money goes into my account. What am I supposed to do in terms of an account to present, I do not have a registered coy. Please advise me on how to file this application, list of documents to be filed, they just want to go for Easter holiday before our daughter begin school, she's 1yr4months hold now.

I await your generous opinion.

Thank you all for wonderful job you are doing here and to Seun that provided the platform.

zoomzu: @ Justwise, thanks a lot, you have answered my question. May God bless you, I will update you as it goes.

baddiguy: The truth of the matter is that you've messed up big time. If you truly had that much in your personal account, were you smoking weed when you then decided to leave matters in the hands of those usually selfish agents who couldn't care less about how they destroy your personal history with the embassies?

Well, there's usually a penalty imposed on those with the audacity to present fake documents, and it runs into YEARS for the most part. So, to save your time, effort and application fees, even February is tooooo soon to turn in another SA visa application - forget SA for now. If you doubt me though, please go ahead and apply anytime next year. Good luck. (But I think there may be hope if you put in a new application and, using your true bank statement to back it up, use good composition skills to honestly explain what happened with the travel agent. If they believe you, why the hell won't your visa be granted?)

If you must travel, apply to other countries. I would get a new passport, because I think it is embarrassing for a country like SA to have a rejection stamp on your passport; wetin go now happen if you apply for the likes of Canada etc.? Abeg abeg no dey use your own hand 4uk yourself up again o

rockar: Thanks a lot. Guess i will hope for the best now. Thanks

rockar: pls i need someone with xperience to answer my question. i finished nysc last year and ever since then, i manage my dads company which he handed to me with a legal doc. the problem is that i made my firt time application today for uk family visiting visa. after i made the application,a friend told me i ought to have included my school cert and nysc cert in the documents i submitted to let them know im a graduate. pls is this necessary for visiting visa? now i am so unhappy cos there is no way i can include the documents again cos i already submitted. will i be rejected because of this?

zoomzu: @ Justwise, Thanks a lot, I should just go ahead and file the application using my job status. I will appreciate your kind further on necessary documents to support my wife and daughter's applications as my wife is not working. Her brother Inlaw is taking care of their stay in UK while I provide only the flight tickets and possible sort them like 1k pounds to hold as pocket money.

okeytimi: Really no body can,i now know what to do an will apprecaite your support when the time is near.God will always be at your side.my best Regards.

okeytimi: Its a good thing to share with you.I will do just that.Will it be a good thing to employ the services of a lawyer agin for the new application cos i intend to copy and paste your last statemnt forward it to him for assistance.I am sharing this cos a lot of pple out there could be suffering the same fate as mine.it is a difficult one but sharing it seems to bring alot relieve after 3 years.Also my wife and baby are now British passport holder will be of any advantage.?

zoomzu: @ Justwise, I do not understand the type of tax you're talking about. I do not have a registered company, it is just a partnership between me and my friend who reside in UK and double as a british citizen. We import our goods through Lagos port.

zoomzu: @ Justwise

Your kind advise is humbly solicited. I am about applying for a visiting visa for my wife and our daughter (1yr4months). I earn 100k per month and work with UNESCO affiliated organisation. My wife's sister resides in UK with her husband who has permanent visa to stay in UK, It is her brother In-Law what is inviting my wife and my daughter to celebrate Easter with them. My own role is just to provide their travel tickets, accommodation and feeding would be taken care of by their host. I have in/out flows of transaction in my account. I have a UK based friend that i partner with to buy cars loaded with electronics from UK, this year alone, i had bought 3 cars from UK with the Bill of Laden (BoL) my name and another one to come in before the year runs out. My wife is not working yet, I just want them visit UK for like 2-3 months and visit my friends in UK as well. Please, what is the chances of this application and I also want to ask if these BoLs can also be included in her application to show my business dealing in UK. What are the other documents needed for this application. I graciously await your advise.
