Good morning everyone... Please I need to know how much minimum bal you would advice for France Visa Application. Thank you.

With the little experience.... fill your forms carefully, have a valid reason for your visit. Your paper work will only speak for you. If you're writing a cover letter make sure it explains everything in details. Also, if you go the TLS with any supporting docs and the attendant tells you that you don't need one of the docs, they them to scan it... it's your application not theirs. It happened to me... my first application the lady didn't scan my docs for business dealings. Telling that my CAC docs and tax will do that. I was refused that my business doesn't have a valid means of transactions... I reapplied the next day I got refused. Got back there and I told them to scan all my supporting docs. I got my visa straight.

I really appreciate justwise & ekpotek... what do you want me to get you when coming to UK ?

My people... I filled 6days in my application but I want to spend 10days now... I hope say I never do pass myself ?

Thank you to all the gurus... I got my visa. 6months. �

Adding your personal company's profile in your application... is it a sign for added ties or you giving out too much information?

Thinking aloud

Thank you ekpotek... I have concluded and written a comprehensive personal letter... I will add receipts to show goods purchased. I think this will fly.

Good morning guru ekpotek... please I have not read your review. Kindly help. Should I just write a more comprehensive letter of introduction... I hope they read it.

ijeshaoflondon:


Those Oyinbo children dont have time to waste and You got the Eco confused really.. You have to be very explicit with your explanation, remembee you wont be there to defend yourself , your cover letter would only be available to speak on .. Presently the Uk children have a lot of application to treat, Therefore Your application needs a very strong cover letter , which would explain you status thoroughly ,


1. How come you did not specify the currency weda Gbp or Naira of the 160 u spend on urself and others ?

2. You have not satisfactorily explained your circumstance in Nigeria.

3. How come the balance in your account skyrocketed from 10k to 1million plus in just 7 days ...?

Yes, I had 5 deposit in the account which was to fulfill orders from customers. After this deposit, I withdrew some funds for purchase I had about closing bal of 600k when submitting.

Good morning Ijeshaoflondon.... please don't get it wrong. If you read my refusal letter very well you would understand more... employment letters and pay slips are from my employer not my company.

ekpotek:


Can you list the document you submitted?

Employment letters
Pay slips 6 months
My company CAC docs with tax cert... registered since early 2017
Hotel reservation
Bank statements both salary and business accounts.
Personal letter of introduction writing my plans in the UK
Flight booking

Thank you guru ekpotek... yes I'm going to the U.K. as a tourist... I added my business profile because that's another tie to my homeland. You know no matter how comfortable you're, you want to make more money. That's my intent for my business to have a side income.

Are you advising me to remove my business entirely or add it as an added advantage?

Hello gurus... please help...
1. I don't understand what the ECO meant by saying your salary is transferred into your gtbank saving account. Salary is not by cash but transfer from my employers company's account to my savings account... is it a crime ?

2. No regular withdrawals- on this account within 6 months I have 179 debits and 15credits... the 9 other credits on my salary savings account is not up to 50K.. it's just mere refunds

3. 160 unspecified currency- this is the money I personally spend and give my siblings... on my personal letter I specified that 160ponds.

4. I have a business I run... I have the CAC docs and tax... I make an average of 50K per month... the 5deposits are for clients I have orders from. They pay into my biz account and I run their transactions from there... I used it in purchasing goods... I didnt even stated that I'm using my business account for my trip... I have enough balance in my saving account about 2m and 600K on biz account.

Travel history - North Africa, South Africa, East Africa and Middle East...

Please where did I get it wrong. I want to reapply and fill forms today.

Hello everyone, justwise: ekpotek and other. Please I need your help... I was denied my first application with foolish excuse. The docs I submitted was not checked and in the refusal letter, all the stuff they used to consider my application was not related to me. let's fastfwd... I have reapplied and I'm trying to link my new GWF with TLS but it keeps bringing the old GWF number. Please what can I do to rectify it? I don't want to created another profile on TLS

solaiphones:
will i need to attach a passport photograph at the front page of my application as directed

No you don't need to attach a passport

iyaaliyah:
Hello everyone. pls which area are safer in Joburg. i am looking at City center so one can access more places.
then checking hotels now, the ones i might be interested in are in Downtown� i know Downtown is synonymous with rough area. pls correct me if i am wrong. i see Guateng too and Sandton..
We are going for a 5day holiday.
thank you.

Sandton is safe and expensive oh... but it's a very cool area.... stay clear and be careful too... You have access to malls and places you can shop... Mandela square... you can use google to check for places around before you conclude...

Hello, please I need to know if I need to do photocopies of all pages on my passport for submission

Nonny1234:
Goodday.. it's past 15working days and no word from TLS for my passport/visa if granted.. should I have any cause for alarm. Is there anything to do or I should just wait. I paid for courier as I do not live where I submitted my documents.

Please how much does the courier cost ?

justwise:

You can use pen

Thank you God bless you

justwise:


You need to add currency sign to those figures.

Thank you justwise... please can I use a pen to add it or I should cancel my appointment and refill the forms ?

Someone should please guide me through my question. PLEASE

Please I need to know when I was filling my forms... I converted my monthly living cost and funds given to dependent to pounds... I hope it doesn't mean ? Or should I use a pen to write the pounds ?

favouritedami:
Hello guys, please I want to ask if anyone got his or her passport seized due to wrong stamp and what step was taken to re-apply and get a passport and visa.

Agent will just land someone in trouble and sit somewhere to eat the money. While you face the wahala yourself.

What do you mean by wrong stamps ?

What country stamp ?

.

Good morning house please I'm still waiting for an answer to my question @justwise @ ekpotek

Thanks.

.

Now I get your point.. no grudges

Sorry to write this. I have been following this thread for a while and the advise givenout is a crap. Please don't follow it. You want to spend 800K for 1 week vavcation... what kind of job do you do ? How much do you earn ? I'm sure Ndkings will be denied. It's super sure. The best I will tell you is that sit down and read very well. The two gurus I know here is justwise and eptokek.

Read this thread very well and learn. That's my own 50Kobo
