Good morning,

My mom visa interview is coming up next month. When I scheduled the her appoimnent, the passport number provided is now expired and she has renewed her passport.

How can I change the old passport number to the new passport number on the visa appointment page or it doesn't matter if the passport number doesn't match ?

Thanks

Sorry about your friends refusal.

Was this his first UK visa application?

Any travel history?

{quote author=lionlee216 post=129521206]My friend was denied a UK Visa, He submitted both his personal account and business accounts(He has two businesses) and i am suprised the ECO saying his account within 5 months showed 8 times his annual income. Its a business account for God Sake, is he supposed to be running at loss and his bank account remains stagnant?

I tire for this people


Yes to first ever visa

No travel history. I kind of feel bad because UK has never been on his bucket list.

I told him to just apply so we can meet up UK and catch up, then the denial came

Hey you are in the US.!!! They expect that for your company to generate such amount in the USA, a first world nation maybe it is legit and on a balance of probabilities you are more legit or at least could be credible to some extent and would take a chance on you.
I can assure you this your friend is in Nigeria, a 3rd world nation, making such claims without any proof whatsoever… and to top it all negatively… he might have no travel history or no investments or no assets. Anyone with such a profile owning a 600 million naira profit company , their financial standing would show for it.
It is not about making claims on a paper from Nigeria as you say he wrote a cover letter. Your circumstances and his are not at all same!
I can bet you this person did all this to inflate his circumstances. Do you know what it is to be the owner of a business making profits of 600 million naira annually in Nigeria? Nahh mehn. This person should upload everything even if there are 1 million documents . They want to see it please .
Tax certificates, number of staff, payslips, invoices, MOUs … the money they have claimed is a lot.. how many businesses in Nigeria make such..


cc Omicpet .... Kindly follow this advice not because of UK but because of future travels abi you go buy Caribbean Passport?

giselle237:

Please how are they wrong?
Any business generating 240 million naira in 5 months means ultimately making at least 600 million naira in a year is not a small venture.
A whooping 600 million naira… Documents, internet presence etc will show.. the person could not even provide documentation to back these claims up. What’s not fishy here?

In the cover letter, he wrote he has an electronic store in Ikeja and he also owns a logistics company explained some lump sum. The ECO won't expect him to start uploading of the receipts of sales from his business OR how do u present documents of payment receipts from pple ordering pickup rides everyday.

When I applied for my mom's UK visa and acted as a sponsor, i.only submitted my business bank statement and didn't even explain anything about the monet in the account..

Moving forward, what can he do differently? Thanks alot

Hello everyone,

I recently applied for a visit visa for my mum and I just got this refusal mail. I still don’t understand the reason very well and I will appreciate thoughts and views from here.


Sometimes the ECO just do as they like cos I see nothing wrong here unless your bank statement is too low to sponsor her.. below was the cover letter on behalf of my own mom and she was granted 6 months



My name is xxxxxxx (passport number: A1xxxx). I am a US Citizen and I reside xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. I am self-employed in Logistics (Air Transportation of Cargo).
I am writing this letter on behalf my mom who is applying for a UK visit visa of 6 months to celebrate my
wife's birthday which we have planned to celebrate in UK.
She is a retired civil servant in Nigeria, she lives in her own her own house with her two dogs, she gets
monthly upkeep from me, we have no relatives or any ties to the UK and hence she has no intentions of
overstaying in the UK.
It has always been a dream of hers to visit London, so it would mean a lot to me if I would finally make
that dream come true. During our time in the UK, I have planned to visit as many tourist attractions as
possible, such as the London Eye, the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, and the National Gallery
among others with her.
While in London, we will stay in a hotel (MOXY London Heathrow Airport) I have already booked for her,
and I will also cover her personal expenses.
As US Citizen, UK is a visa free country for us to travel to, so my wife and I will not be applying for a UK
visa with her.
I have attached proof of my marriage with my wife showing her date of birth, my finances, hotel
bookings, her bank statement, my business registration here in the US, her house documents to prove
home ties to Nigeria and proof of funds to show she will be well taken care of.
As at time of uploading, my mum bank statement could not be obtained due to an email not attached to
online banking platform and she couldn’t walk into a bank by herself due to an injury sustained on her
leg but she has an account balance of N151,390 in her bank account.

At this point, You should rest and allow the law to run its full course. There's nothing you can do for him unless you were the one that got him into the trouble in the first place. If the 200k$ is still available, he can use thst to start a new life in Nigeria and if you really want to be a good friend to him, start preparing for his arrival in Nigeria since ICE already have a detainer on him.

Cos of $200k, he spoilt his life. Now he will have to communicate with his family on zoom. I'm sure with time, his wife will move on as well due to work and those lonely nights. Money he could have made in a legit way down the line.

Hey 🤠

Login to your CGI profile and glance through very well, you will find your MRV payment confirmation number , OR look towards the end of your appointment confirmation slip .

1. Write out your MRV payment confirmation number and go to the branch of the GTB the payment was made . Even if you paid online , still do the same thing and walk into any GTB branch , they should be able to print or copy you payment acknowledgment which will serve the same purpose . You may have to pay little charges again .

Best Wishes 🙏

Turkish is 1,080,000

In as much as I commend airpeace, they should learn from other airlines especially those with star alliance. I don't have to book from lagos to London. I should be able to book from any state in Nigeria to London.

For example, I should be able to boom from Enugu to London on the same ticket confirmation number using lagos as a transfer point. Airpeace from enugu to lagos, then lagos to London. That way people, it's easy for their customers.

Ethiopian airline flies from Chicago and Washington to ADD but you can book your ticket from Missouri to ADD. Ethiopian airline has code sharing with other airlines. United airlines flies u to chicago, then Ethiopian airline straight to Africa.

I also pray Nigerian govt doesn't adopt airpeace as a national Carrier make dem no spoil the airline for us with corruption. Airpeace should try and get New York route or Atlanta make delta eye peel small 😆😆😆😆
