Nigeria high commission in UK or Nigerian embassy in Ireland should be able to authenticate your Marriage certificate since it was obtained in Nigeria. All you need is to visit any of the Nigerian embassy nearest to you.

worry246:

If he has been denied even transit visa what has he done?
It must be very bad thing.
Did he submit forged documents or failed asylum seeker?
or is he criminal in drugs or theft
Tell the truth so some one may help you.

worry246:

You seem worried about transit through ANY country.
Guilty thoughts?

I think your comments are harsh. The OP hasn't say anything that should warrant that. Not everyone that was refused visa had done something wrong. Also, many countries around the world have known Nigerians for their breach of their visa policies. And hence even the innocent suffer as a result of this.

nagari:

Thanks for your prompt response.
I apply for a short stay visa to attend brothers wedding in September.

That is not family visa. It is a visitor's visa and it should take about 10 working days to process. Sometimes could take longer if they need to verify documents.

What type of family visa did you apply for?

I could understand how you feel and of course it is sad to see your money going for what you never budget it for. But you have to look at this in another dimension, that issuance of visa depends on visa officer’s discretion and that the responsibility lies on you to know if you will meet their visa requirements and apply for the correct visa. Otherwise you are liable to lose your money. It can as well happen in any country.
If there is refund policy then you may get your money back but unfortunately there is no refund.

I think it was a fair play. Perhaps, the visa officer thought you are not qualify for 5 years visa hence the 6 and you on the other hands thought you may qualify for 5 years visa.  Again visiting visa is issued on the visa officer’s discretion.  The visa officer can as well refuse you visa and you won’t get any refund. Sometimes issuance visa does not matter whether you were granted visa before or not.

thats another serious issue, my friend worked a construction job for 6days.hard as hell. 7.30am-5.30pm
they promised him 35TL cuz he was desperate. he needed to pay his rent. yet they never paid him 1TL after the job, those people just never came again. he was homeless for 4days, sleeping @ CIU break Point (hiding somewhere cuz when they are about to lock the place they wont see him) the day they saw him he had to sleep out side IN THE COLD. its winter then, i felt for him. his other house mate are not that Understanding. another one is my OWN room mate. he worked in a construction company, the new apartment opposite CIU for 4 days. they promise him50TL after the job, makes the total amount 200TL, they only paid him 50TL, they didnt pay him the rest till now, sometimes i think they job dont worth, its never happened to me though, they only time i worked my boss pay me after everyday excepts i told him to wait till the end of the job, he is too big to owe me, i had once brought like 8 CIU student to work for him, he paid them 50TL each that day after buying them KEBAB.
Tired of hearing UNpaid student's news,

Are students allowed to work in N. Cyprus? If yes, why will they not report to the appropriate authority for unpaid work? Even when you don't have a written contract with the company and you can get a good evidence that you worked with the company you can report them to authority for not paying. Although I guess there will be much corruptions there like in Turkey too.

kosovo sucide mission dont say someone dint inform you on nairaland, dont think you will jump out from kossovo to eu state soo easy i bet you there are seven niagerians there suffring stock and begging dont go there warning

Spot-on. And since you are looking for a genuine advice, it is better to do good things with your money instead of going to Kosovo to waste it. Or like Siena rightly said try a better country in Europe.
Also, you shouldn't waste your money going to Russia except you have good reason for going there such as tourism, study, or business. otherwise you may regret it in future.

http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/breaking/2011/0719/breaking32.html

Her campaign to stay here saw her make more than 20 appearances in the High Court and a number of appearances in the Supreme Court. That court’s rejection last year of her claim that the Minister for Justice had discretion to reconsider her application was seen by some legal experts as marking the end of her Irish legal challenges.

After wasting so much money to battle her deportation order and now she is deported. If you have been following this case in the past you would discover that she told many lies and also used forged documents.
Maybe I should as well say that some Nigerian solicitors practising abroad are exploiting Nigerians living abroad. They want to make you believe you can prolong your stay in Europe even when you don't have a genuine reason to do so. They tarnish image of Nigeria abroad.

paris10:

The highlighted sentence does not relate to ILR under the family scheme, it is meant for Asylum application. You don't have to prove that your life is in danger back home. You only need to prove that you have no home to return to i.e your parents are no more and you have no relative back home who could take care of you. You also have to prove that you depend financially and morally on your sponsor (family in the UK) 99.9%

But this is only for students who have settled family in the UK. As for students who do not have settled relative, this is where I come in.

Where is Claremont, This is another challenge for you this week. Don’t leave for Justwise alone. Where someone has to manufacture lies in order to prolong his or her stay in UK. I hope Paris10 is not Dada, the solicitor that is handling Bimbo’s case. I don’t know when will leave some fraudulent ways of our lives and do things in a genuine ways. People continue to drag Nigeria’s name to mud.
Anyway best of luck to your clients.

omonjerry:

any runs there?

Yes, there is 10 years imprisonment there. And you are free to be there.

What a real sad story. However there was nothing in that story that looks like it was racist killing. I think it is just an unfortunate incident that just happened.
And as they said the man who shot them is 81 years, he could be suffering from dementia or Alzheimer or any other old age disease.
Though, this is not important as greater damage had been done. What resulted in the argument could be prevented. Why wouldn’t I rent another apartment if I discovered that my former landlord was cheating or don’t agree with my demands.
I think also Nigeria embassy in Berlin should do more than just paper work. If a Nigerian is stranded abroad it is responsibility of Nigeria embassy abroad to come to the person(s)’s aid. The person or it’s family can repay back while in Nigeria.

I didn’t get it at all myself. Can you explain more here on what type of settlement visa the person will be applying for? Is possible for an adult to apply for dependent visa through his/her friend? I know it could be possible to apply through a family member. Also, I know some people try to apply for settlement through adoption and as far as I know these are refused most times.
You mentioned that someone without genuine reason should not contact you? But I think application for settlement visa under a friend is not genuine application except you can explain more about it.

Of course, you are eligible to bring your dependent(s) to UK even if you are on ILR. You just need to meet UKBA criteria such as having sufficient funds to take care of your children while in UK.
You need to apply for entry clearance to join you or accompany to UK which I think should be successfully if you meet all the requirements.

I may ask if it is possible for someone to obtain UK visitor’s visa nowadays without strong ties in Nigeria except for family visa. I believe her family in Nigeria is comfortable and that she will have a roof over her head while in Nigeria. Except she used forged documents to obtain visa UK high commission in Nigeria will surely investigate about her background in Nigeria.
As for her bills I still maintain if she can’t pay there is nothing to do about it.
My concern will be that she should not lie in the name of prolonging her stay in UK. Let just say she succeeded in executing her plans like any other health tourism but it is will be good that she leave UK except she has another genuine reason to stay.
However, I think someone that gave birth to 5 kids need support and I believe she will get the in Nigeria.

Hmm! I wonder why Nigerian govt has to pay the bill. What will be the reason? She was unable to have her babies in Nigeria and then refer to Medical attention abroad? Except we are talking about under humanitarian ground then she and her babies need assistance and it does matter who comes to their aids.
Some people mention she wanted the best for her kids. There is no doubt about that but we can’t say because we want the best for our kids and then rob a bank to give the best to our kids. We should know what we can afford. So there is no justification for this.
And for those who are saying bad about the British in this. I think the British deserves praises. First the woman and her babies were taking care of for about 2 months without any deposit. Secondly as I could read from the story she is yet to receive bills of the service.
And I think some of us if not many of us started hearing about this story after making application of her visa extension to HO. I think that was when the Media have to come in.
As I will continue to say if she can’t pay her bill there is nothing British govt can do about that. She isn’t the first. But she should not waste her money with any lawyer trying to fight her stay in UK.

yogun:

i read with amusement the posts on this Nigerian woman

the babies are so innocent and don't deserve this publicity

I will not support this woman's behavior, it has only shown that she is not a straight person.

First of all she abused the use of drugs.

For someone in her right state of mind, i believe she knew that her actions has consequences and she stood the chance of multiple babies.

I dont believe her claim that she didnt know that she was expecting more than one baby. she endangered her life and the babies by her acts.

I dont want to be judgemental but her actions have further dented the image of Nigerian. it is stated in the visa that "no recourse to public funds", so regardless of her situation, how does she qualify for public funds?

She took a decision and she shld have crossed her "t' and dotted her "i'.

for her to now said that all her families are based abroad and she doesnt have a roof over her head here in Nigeria doesnt sound true to me.

for the sake of the young kids, i pray that her visa shld be extended so that her kids can be strong enough to travel back and she shld be sent home to care for her kids here.

She shld just go ahead and plan her return pending the time, am sure she'll be shocked at the level of support she receive from friends, extended family, religious grps here cos WE LOVE BABIES HERE and we know they are nothing but gifts from above.

She shld appeal to NGOs here as well the state and federal government to help in anyway possible (clear the bills).

I will not support her fight to stay there against their laws.

Let's not because of this moment forget tomorrow. enough damage has been done to the image of this country and every little effort made by everyone of us to redeem the image will go a long way.

Thank you

Thank you for your post.
We tend to focus on today and forget tomorrow. If others who may be in this same situation and who are seriously in need for treatment abroad are denied visa simply because UK authority think that the person will abuse their system and the person eventually died. What will be the game then?
I will continue to say that if this woman cannot pay her bill there is little UK govt can do. What I think anger many UK citizen and taxpayers is simple that she want to stay even with her deception.
I still believe she shouldn’t think about that. She should voluntary go home. And the more she give false excuse of nothing going home the more Nigeria organization and govt may not wish to help her if she goes home.
Her bills should be the problem here any longer because even UK Govt knows she can’t pay.

justwise:

So you are now blaming the immigration for allowing a pregnant woman in to have quins? She should have been turned back to Nigeria to have those kids? Brilliant!!!  

Don't worry, the next health tourist from Nigeria will pay for this

This is actually my problem here. I just wish she can be honest and leave UK as soon as her babies are healthy enough to do so. If she can't pay the bill there is nothing they can do to her except banning her from entering UK.
People should stop battering the image of Nigeria for their own selfish gain. The woman should consider the consequence of whatever she want to do on others that may be in her situation.
Some people are saying the babies might have died if she was to deliver in Nigeria. You can take a look at this http://www.vanguardngr.com/2011/06/multiple-birth-reactions-from-medical-experts/.
Helping the media to damage the image of Nigeria is not good. Someone mentioned about the implication in labour market and that is actually true. I know people who have worked in Nigeria and have a good experience but those experiences were never counted for when he was seeking for job in Europe. This is because some people still think we are living a primitive life.
It is not all about black, there people from Botswana and other southern African and many of these countries has visa waiver in some European countries.

After reading the story there is tendency that you might not have known she is expecting multiple. But it is obvious that she came to UK to have her babies. And from what I read it is like the bone of contention is no longer the bill rather her chance of staying in UK.
And to be honest, she should go back to Nigeria because I think all the reasons she are not cogent enough to allow her stay.  We should not forget that there may be others in future that may be in the same predicament and the same person will be refuse entry into UK.
She said she will have no roof over her head in Nigeria and that all her relatives live in UK. Even if she stays in Uk she is not allowed to work and her sisters will have to take care of her living and I can’t see Uk to be cheaper on that ground.
Perhaps, another thing she may want to say is that from where is coming from having multiple is an abomination and that the children might be in danger. This people are no fool.
Please don’t get me wrong, I don’t have any problem in the woman coming to UK to have her children and I still don’t have problem in her not going to pay her bill because she is not capable of doing that as well. But I won’t what her to paint Nigeria black all because she wants to stay in UK

I still doubt if the woman was not aware that she was expecting multiple. Because if she has the money to fly to UK and also very much in need of a baby then she would have done Ultra scan to find out what is inside her womb.
As for the bill, if she can, she should pay some of the bill and I don’t think they will jail her for not paying the rest. I don’t see why her bill should be a problem except for her visa extension.  Most people who do have multiple usually get support.
There should be need to lie in this situation , it is great that she has all her babies alive. She just need to be honest so that people in the same situation will not suffer because of her deception.
Most Nigerian suffer from what others have done abroad

Why can't you remember anything juzme

Maybe old age!
When I remember i will post.

I think you can browse offline using internet explorer and with most other explorers. You just need to set your browser to offline browsing. With the recent internet browsers you will find ”work offline” when you click “file”. But the unfortunate think is that you can only open pages you have accessed before. The trick is to open all the pages you wish to access offline when you are online and don’t bother to read them online.
Also, I think there are other specialized browsers or add on you can use for offline browsing. I cant remember anyone now.

From my understanding, a passport is only stamped on entry or exit from the Shengen zone. After entering the Shengen zone, an individual is allowed to travel freely anywhere within the Shengen territory, and his passport/visa is not checked because internal border controls between shengen countries have been abolished. For instance, if I travel from UK to France via Germany, the only time my Shengen visa will be checked will be when I leave UK and on arrival in Germany. If I take a bus from Germany to France, nobody bothers to check for visas because I am already within the shengen zone. Na so I understand dis shengen stuff, but I could be wrong though

That is correct. There are no border controls within Schengen zone. You only get checked once. However, you may be stopped while entering another country and ask for passport or ID. Hence the need to have your passport whenever you are crossing border.

I think I asylum seekers can as well join provided they can provide ID and of course you can use “fake ID” to join provided they have your original ID.
However, it is not easy as the post may be suggesting. There are merits and you have to meet their standards & criteria just like every other organization. There are always background checks. Recruitment is strict as well. Recruitment is mainly when there are potential threats ahead.
I think like the poster has suggested it is better to try your luck in joining them than seeking asylum. But the problem I think might be that if you are refused then you may be deported back to your home country as there is no international law backing it as par appealing processing.

I think, you need to purchase return ticket for him because airline from Lagos may not carry him without return ticket.
Also, if his port of entry is Slovakia airport they may want to see that he has return ticket. Again, in this situation there is nothing much you can do since EU law will not apply to you living in your home country. The local immigration law will apply here and they will want him to have every necessarily document.
Therefore, to be on the safer side, you need to buy return ticket.

I guess the main problem will be Lagos that if Airline is going to carry him with one way ticket.
I think the one other problem here is that you may not be in the country (Austria) that he will be landing. The immigration officer may want to see that he has everything that is if they want to scrutinize him. Otherwise, he will be just fine.
If you are certain about that he will not have problem in Lagos, then in order to minimize the risk that may be involve with immigration, when landing in Europe with one way ticket, you can go to the airport where he is landing. Make sure he has your marriage certificate that he has you contact number. In that case they will never send him back to Nigeria except he is landing in Slovakia and that you are national of Slovakia. If you are not national of Slovak and you reside in Slovakia then he should be fine there too.

Having address is not a guarantee that you are genuine. Even 419ner do have contact address from the beginning.
Justwise had said it all.

“whoever wants to be stranded in Brazil or Paraguay after paying thousands of $$$ should call you.”

I understand Mr Russell Anthony Bonnici is from Paraguay who lives in Canada this is why these two connection.
Also, Mr 1WORLD, I think you are right by saying

“if it looks or sound fishy its your own cup of tea, Traveling is meant for serious, responsible and those that can afford it not noise maker that does not even own an International passport”

So anyone who deal with your organization whatever he/she get is their business.

claremont:

Since you are now here, kindly enlighten us on the business you do, and your relationship with Vicjustice such that he has given his recommendation. Even though his recommendation means nothing on this forum of course

I think you should disassociate VIcjustice from 1WORLD. I think what happen was that Vicjustice was trying to verify if 1WORLD was genuine or not and to his observation/investigation he thought they are genuine company. And making recommendation was where he made mistake and which anyone of us could as well do.

I think 1WORLD was only being condemned here rather than VICjustice. People raised alarm because VicJustice was promoting 1World business. Of course, I think Vicjustice has right to say whatever he want in the forum but concerns should be focused on the people that would be a victims. Some of us that are abroad could testify how many people from African countries had suffered in the hands of agents.
The truth of the matter is like collinsfbi and tigerpaws pointed out are that majority of these so called agents don’t stick to their promises. They lied to get their clients patronized them. As we can read on the countries that 1WORLD can assist in obtaining their visas. For example, the company may promise to obtain Canadian visa for their clients but as soon as the Canadian visa did not work out they would deceive you in obtaining Paraguay visa. It is true that there is no evidence to this yet but I think this is what is going to happen. Hence, one should not promote this company rather let their clients decide for themselves.
So many people were dumped in countries like Belize, Brazil, Paraguay, Cuba and so many other Central America South America in the name of taking them to North America.
And my Advice to Vicjustice is to disassociate himself from any travel agents in Africa. They are never truthful and only concern about their gain
VicJustice has made so much meaningful contribution in this forum and many people are likely to follow his advice.

I don’t know any credible company or organization that will be organizing conferences/seminars with the major aim to process visa for their clients.
Also offer soccer game abroad with their major aim is to get visa for their clients.
I do not see any credibility in this name (ADENIYI SOLA BUNMI), when he was the author of this. http://www.adeniyisolabunmi..com/.

Vicjustice 

“ Lol, first of all, there's no legal ground for such liability: Well, as a matter of fact, i'm only giving my reccommendation, not a command as i don't have that power. However, i do expect that people know better than being too vulnerable as nothing is really risk free: Therefore, the reccommendation is mine, but it is up to any individual to also keep vigilant to observe and avoid anything suspicious.”

I think recommending or promoting a travel agent in this forum is absolute wrong especially when people who are using the forum trust you. Of course, you are entitled to your opinion but you should be aware that what you say here may affect others positively or negatively. 
I think travel agencies in Nigeria are not to be trusted and it does matter if they have alliance abroad or not.  There may be no doubt that they may have good intention of obtaining visa for you but along the line if it doesn’t work out they will never refund all or part of your money.  As we know nobody can guarantee visa. I remembered in 2003 there were many of these types of agents in Abuja who claimed they have ‘good connection’ of obtaining visa for their clients but as soon as embassy denied the visa they won’t answer their calls and you would never get them in their offices.
Even companies that issues travelling insurance in Nigeria are not to be trusted. Many of them hardly refund money.
At the same time am not going to tarnish image of any company rather let anyone who want to patronize them assess them very well before using their service.

thanks for your post but i want you to note this:
[b]those who have had their palm kernel cracked for them by benevolent spirit should not laugh or critize the misfortunes or difficulties of others.[/b]you should realize that before a sane man with a degree and no job for years decides he wants to go somewhere else(legal or not) to try and see what life has to offer,then you should know he has endured beyond what can be imagined.

what else is there really left to do.do i sit and let life just pass me by or take a chance and see what/where it leads to.
is not like am asking you or anybody to kill somebody or do what has never been done before,all am asking is advice and how it is done, so please  spare me the bullshit.
cheers

I’m sorry I couldn’t under clearly of what you are trying to say but I don’t think anyone is laughing at you.
If you have a lot of money to waste while living illegal in Europe, why not use that money to make another visit after your first visit. If you can visit Schengen zone for about 3 subsequent times in year they will issue 1 year multiple visa to you which you have enough time to plan whatever way you want to obtain residence permit
