Hi please, please for those that have successfully applied and gotten their visa, how did you answer that question " how much do you personally plan to spend on your visit to the UK"? Especially when you are been fully sponsored. Do you put the total proposed expenditures or what?
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Kiki25: 8:47am On Feb 03, 2023
But I thought the 6months visa is single entry. That means I can't re-enter the country once i exit. Unless I re-apply again

wolvesgigs:
Please do not try it, your next application will be refused.
Once you states 2 weeks during application then you must use the 2 weeks and return, you can still travel for 3 months within the Visa validity period.

Thank you

No it won’t. Visa expiration has different timeframes, depending on the length of your visa. For 6 months visa, unless you overstay 6 months, you have no issue even if you stay up to 5 months
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Kiki25: 7:03pm On Feb 02, 2023
If on my application, I say I'm applying for 2 weeks buh I end up staying for 1 month, will it have a negative impact on my future applications?

Thank you.@Mrmoney90.

So in order words, both the savings and piggyvest are both savings. See the issue here is not about just having savings, you need to show the origin of these savings. How you have been depositing the money monthly, as well as the origin. Your savings should have a custom, just like your salary. There has to be a build up. You can’t just attach different savings account without appropriate origin of funds. As that is what the ECO is saying there. In your next application, still include your savings, but explain where they came from. If from your salary, show atleast 2 or 3 times such amounts left your salary account, or if you did that for 6 months period, also indicate all of that. From there, the ECO will be able to judge your circumstance. Every bulk deposits or withdrawals in your accounts asides from your salary and monthly expenditures, should be explained.

Hi guys. So I applied for a visit visa last December and was refused. The major reason was my financials and ties. The ECO said that my personal account was inflated which is actually true but because I got
2 contract jobs just a month before I applied (they are both HR jobs and was supposed to be for just a month) and they paid me through my personal account, though I presented the contract documents). And there are also monies from my boyfriend and siblings which I explained in the cover letter I submitted.

My boyfriend is sponsoring the whole trip as he is in the UK (not as a student), all his necessary documents were submitted. And we want to try again since my birthday is coming up.

So my question is, in the previous application, I presented my salary account and savings account and also my piggyvest account. Now, for the new application, I want to submit just my salary account and declare that I don't have other source of income...is this going to be a problem?

Also, since I don't have any assets, how else can I proof my ties asides my work?

Please I need you guys to critique on the refusal and advise 😔

Thank you @ Ozededes. I really hope it won't be a problem seeing that we are not yet married. Though we have documents to show that we've been leaving together for 2 years.

Hi guys, I have a question please.
If the main applicant for Global Talent visa failed to mention his unmarried partner in his application, would that be a problem when the unmarried partner wants to apply to join him.

I would appreciate your input guys 🙏🏾

Piggyvest operates as a MFB in Nigeria. The statement should be acceptable to UKVI. Just be sure that Piggyvest will confirm your statement when requested by UKVI.
Thank you.

Select that you have other source of income and provide the bank statements. I submitted invitee SOA, my salary SOA, my coperative contribution SOA & my pension SOA.
My Visa was approved 2weeks ago.
All the best.
Okay.
Thanks for the advice dear and the best wish.

Hi guys. So I've been following this thread for a while because i want to apply for a UK visit visa. I'll be visiting a friend who will be providing accommodation and also fully sponsor the trip.
I've actually started my application but I just need some advice regarding proof of fund. I know I'll submit my sponsors SOA, and that I'll have to submit mine as well. But the thing is that the closing balance on my salary account is very low...less than 20k sef. But I have other source of income going into another bank like money from friends and family and some freelance jobs I do. So in the application, should I select that I have other source of income and provide my bank statement to prove it? If yes, does it mean I'll be providing 3 banks statement( my sponsor's, my salary account and my other other)?


Also, I selected that I having savings as well, I use piggyvest for my savings, do I need to provide SOA for it as well?

Please help guys ��
