TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by MadeMan01(m): 5:20pm On Mar 09, 2023
Hello France experts, I greet you all.
Please I need advise on my situation.

I started reading this thread before finally applying for my France Schengen visa today.

I started on the France-visas website and after completion and got to the stage of visa fee, it told me I was to pay €0 for the visa and linked me to VFSGLOBAL to book an appointment. I followed the process and finally booked a VFS biometric appointment for April 13, 2023 and paid approximately N21,000 online ( since I will be going to UK on March 24 and return in April 8 but want to travel to France on July 6.)

I just wanted to know it the €0 charge is normal. Am I going to pay again at VFS Lagos? What should I expect? Will I be billed for the visa later? When going for the biometric, should printed copies be in black and white or coloured. Please respond. Thank you in advance.

Hello House,
Please can I get France Schengen within 3 weeks?

I have UK visa and want to travel March 24. What is the timeframe to get France visa, what dates are available for vfsglobal biometric appointment?

I've started the form completion on FRANCE - VISAS website but need confirmation before I submit. How long after biometric will visa be issued?

Will passport be collected at vfsglobal biometric appointment like TLSCONTACT for UK visa?

Thanks in advance

Newbiein2016:
Check-in now happens at the new terminal (luggage drop-off, collection of boarding pass and NIS stamps).

Source: Flown Qatar twice in last 6 weeks.

Once completed, you will move to the old terminal (both terminals are connected) where you board the plane & where it actually departs from.

Qatar doesn't fly from the new terminal.

Once you book a flight from Lagos to London via Qatar your luggage is checked in through to the final destination i.e. you will only pick up checked bags after going through immigration in London.
Thanks a ton . I sent you an email. Kindly reply with your number. I would like to talk to you on phone.

Hello House,
For those who have gone to UK visa Qatar Airways and transit visa Doha, did the airline transfer your luggage themselves or you have to retrieve upon arrival and check in yourself on London flight from Doha?

TravelRe: Visa Rejection: What To Do When Your Application Is Denied? by MadeMan01(m):
It's not do or die.
Sometimes its God preventing you from poorly timed moves. In my case I graduated 2004, applied for US visa twice in two years and was denied . I applied for Canada visa 3 times during COVID lockdown and was denied. Now I have applied for UK visa and was granted but I'm not in a hurry to go.
I have a job with valuable experience here. I will only move when I'm assured of a better standard or better level abroad.

A lot of Nigerians are struggling abroad. I hear some students sleep in library due to accomodation issues after arrangements for proof of funds. One mid level IT guy in my former offices now in UK and I was told he is cleaning stadiums after matches because he hasn't found a job

yes, that's the more reason I asked the question. That means the applicant will need at least four months salary to cater for travel expenses.
Possible if backed with substantial savings

On a serious note it's becoming too frequent for MTNs reputation. Something like this happened last year or so. I think I need to resuscitate my glo line, so I have all three again.

My mom and I were granted 6 month visitor visa.
Mom is a regular traveller.
Applied on January 24
Biometrics February 2
Passport Email February 10
Passports collected February 13.

By the way. I saw someone whose passport had been with TLSContact for over 90days who came and was told his passport had been sent back to UKVI and he may have to get it back from Ikoyi immigrations. I was like, people are seeking visa, someone had and was waiting for 90 days before collecting. I can't tell if he was granted or extra documents were requested of him which he was ignorant of..

Which one is ticket number and password for UKVI again?
When you request for you bank statement using @mybankstatement issued by banks. It generates ticket number and password that the embassy staff can use to log in and see your account details for period requested. It's also used in Canada visa application. Don't worry it's not bet9ja ticket
