Good evening seniors. Please I need some clarification. Is it possible for an uncle of mine to sponsor me on a tourist visa to the UK? I mean if he’s willing to provide some supporting documents. Will it be possible ? If it will, what do I have to do and what documents do I need to gather. Thanks and God bless

ybahrbz91:
Good Evening House.

Thank you everyone for the assistance and help.

I have an enquiry to ask;
My sponsorship letter carries my passport details which is expiring in 6 months. I have applied for a new passport and I am about applying for Visa.
Do I need to inform my employer about my new passport number?
If I go to the embassy with the 2 passports, which of the passport will be Stamped?

I am quite in a dilemma, I would appreciate your response.

Thank you.

Good evening everyone. For the sake of some of us that are first time travelers, please what are the possible questions to be asked at the airport (esp some of us that are young, and don’t have any relative in UK), and if you can also take your time to write the way in which we’ll answer, will be so much appreciated.

And what are the things to put in order, the necessary things to do and have. Please just share experiences. Thank you

Hello
Pls after getting an admission from a UK school when should I apply for visa and regarding the block account when should it be funded

cutebear:
School is your best option. Unless you want to go through job offer. In which, it's mostly nurses and care workers that are being hired right now.

Gentlesoul3268:

beautyuche:
Goodday,
I was refused Uk visa and feel its too short a time to reapply. Hence i am applying for the German schengen visa of 90 days.Seeing your message now means this is also a wrong move as I need schengen of 180 days right.
Please respond.

mamawa123:
Take all the benefits that come with your UK visa if you have the means.

Like you don’t need another visa to visit Cancun Mexico if you have UK visa.

Mexico: Visa is not required for passengers holding a valid visa issued by the United States, Japan, Canada, the United Kingdom, or a valid tourist visa issued by a Schengen Area member states. Maximum stay of 180 days.

If you are in Lagos or ibadan, healthtracka.com will do test for you in the morning at home or your preferred location and send your results by evening. So you can book the test a day before your flight. My partner and I used them and there were no issues.

Gentlesoul3268:
Thank you very much Ma Ameliia....I really appreciate your concerned yesterday.

I have sent an email to UKVI complaint department for wrongly denied my wife for a large fund deposit the ECO mentioned.


Now I was told to reapply immediately to counter the refusal letter on a ground by providing the statement of account where I transferred the money into my wife bank account.

I used my personal bank statement to transferred the money to her which I used the account for miscellaneous and domestic stuff at times, Although I have a salary account which showing a steading 550k monthly salary.

We will write a cover letter to address the reason Eco wrongly denied my wife and the kids, also to provide my salary account, personal account I used to transferred the money into her acct, my payslips, and my work ID card, previous bank statement indicating the salary and 1.5m sponsorship fund apart from that no any other funds.


Please is that a good ideas?

All the gurus ...leef,, madam, cutebear , Ameila, Giselle and everyone

Gentlesoul3268:
How long does it take to response if I complaint about the Eco wrongly refuses me ? also hope that didn't stop me to re apply anytime?

KLM and Air France doesn't require transit Visa enrout the UK from Nigeria ?

Dinoforyou00:
Ohh okay I get. Thank you AmeliaT

Gentlesoul3268:
No other deposit I no other deposit I can even attached all the 6 month bank statement

AmeliaT:
You can't re-check in luggage with an airport or airside transit visa. To recheck in your luggage, you need a city transit or visitor in transit visa as you will need to exit the departure area, clear immigration etc.

Nchabuomo:
I think you can challenge the decision though based on what is written. I'm not 100 percent sure who you can email but perhaps write to UKVI attaching the refusal letter and VAF that addresses the issues. I'm assuming there aren't other unexplained large deposits in your wife account in the period.

Please can someone explain transit visa. And is it all the flight that has stop overs in another country that will require transit visa

Muyizie:
You have provided a Nigerian birth certificate as evidence of relationship to your EEA citizen sponsor. It is noted that it has been registered 17 years after the date of birth. According to Nigeria Births, Deaths, Etc. (Compulsory Registration) Act, No. 69 (14 December 1992) it states late registration after 12 months shall only be registered ‘with the authority of the Deputy Chief Registrar’.
As you have only provided a birth certificate in isolation and no evidence from the competent authorities in Nigeria that such authority from the Deputy Chief Registrar has been given I am not satisfied that you have provided the ‘required evidence of relationship’ to show you are a ‘family member’ of a ‘relevant EEA citizen’.
On that basis you have failed to meet the eligibility requirements of Appendix EU (Family Permit) and your application is therefore refused.

If you have further evidence you want us to consider, you can make another application under the EUSS Family Permit at no cost: https://www.gov.uk/family-permit/eu- settlement-scheme-family-permit

Hello ,I just completed my covid 19 second dose and I was told that to take the booster dose that it will be till another six month and I need to travel to UK month.
I want to ask if the booster dose not a necessity one must compulsory key fulfill as a requirement before allow to enter UK

giselle237:
Yes google is enough. Or perhaps it is not enough for tourism. Lmao.
When you get a better understanding of why people are refused visas so easily you will understand my point especially from countries such as ‘acclaimed third world nations’. If I start explaining, you wont understand so there’s no point. no vex.
I strongly stand for parents reasons. Theirs is most paramount, others are secondary… again I refuse to delve into this.
The op was hinging on the fact that he was issuing invitation letter for wedding… i am only trying to make him/her understand it is not the lifeline for visa issuance. Check the ties of the individual to their country. What will bring them back. This is the basis for a visa to be issued. IV for wedding is inconsequential to me. Na my opinion.
Lots of visa denials here are easily avoidable. There are however those few that you can see ecos winchi winchi. The rest are starightforward and could have gone in the right direction. So when I see I am going for birthday.. I am going for wedding .. this is inconsequential.
Howver if another person says this has been the most stressful year of my life.. I have had a hectic time at work and just deserve a break from work and my immediate environment and decided to undertake this trip whilst backing it up with reasons and adequate ties you have a fighting stance. What ever it is the trip must have an intention! It is not enough to say I want to attend wedding… why? Answer the intention!
If we start now. We wont finish.

Oneguy03:
Well you could argue that in a circumstance where the visitor overstays, Home office has a reference point to track the visitor. (Inviter's address in this case). Also, if the UK resident is sponsoring the trip, does the visitor need to prove ties to Nigeria? I mean some people are stay-at-home moms for example, without proper earnings. Do they not stand a chance of visiting the UK on invitation?

Hello @7031646386. I have gone through the recent replies and I believe that @giselle237 & @AmeliaT have both given enough scrutiny of your application based on the refusal letter. Kindly take note of these. You can reapply once your circumstances change.
You should also visit other countries like South Africa, Dubai & Turkey before reapplying to the UK. This will further solidify your financial standing with the ECO
