Hello Guys,

Firstly, Great job with providing valued information and advise to everyone needing help on here.


Secondly, as it turns out, i need to help in deciding if i should apply for a 190 Visa.

Profile;
Age - 31
Current Profession - ICT Account Manager (1 year + experience at a fintech)
Previous Profession - Bank Manager/investment professional (6 years + at a tier One Bank in Nigeria)
First Degree - Bsc Building == Nigeria (Graduated -2014)
Second degree - MBA=== UK (Graduated - 2022) WES evaluated
IELTS - 8.5 overall

Initial thoughts based off research; apply as an ICT Account Manager as seen below;

225211 ICT ACCOUNT MANAGER

Manages sale of computer hardware, software and services to existing account clients and identifies further sales opportunities within these accounts, builds new account clients, manages customer satisfaction and retention, and coordinates the preparation and presentation of ICT sales proposals and tenders.
Skill Level: 1


I have reviewed the eligibility page on the both the AU PR and VETASSESS Websites and for 1 year experience for ICT Account Manager, i should have a highly relevant field of study (Information technology or computer sci.)or should be closely related.

Questions;

1. Will my MBA be considered as closely related- i took maybe two ICT courses and my thesis was on digital banking?
2. Do i evaluate both degrees?
3. On the AU immigration portal, 225211 ICT ACCOUNT MANAGER falls under STSOL list. How do i check what states are de demanding my profession asides individually checking?
4. What are my chances?

If the trip is not important, hold on and build your account.
Let your friends/whoever is doing a transfer to your account describe such inflow.

I think he is trying to establish his longevity at a previous employment and that he is still working now even though only recently started this new job and I can’t fault it. I could or want to do the same to want to explain source of funds before August as ECOs can be funny.
Also when you have had a long employment or a well
Paying one, it gives your application an overall good credence
Secondly, Have a planned itinerary, research on what you are going to the UK to do and reduce budget a bit as u said ur monthly expenses are more than 300k but thats what u want to declare.
U must research and tell them how u will be touristing.
If any other assets in Nigeria add them to show you are well established- some add lands, cars, property documents etc

Hey Guys,

I have read most of the thread and thank you all for sharing insights for a potential successful application. I need guidance on my brother’s application;

Background: He worked with a top tier bank for over 6 years and was promoted twice within same period. His last monthly net salary before he resigned mid August was about N511k/month. His outstanding benefits was also paid the following month (say N800k).

He resigned from banking and joined a fintech coy and now earns N700k. Resumed last week of August this year (same month he left the bank) but salary paid for that month was prorated.

His half year bonus of the bank (former employer was paid after he left) about M1.2 which he immediately invested N1m in fixed deposits for 60 days (maturity 6th Dec this year). He uses same account for salaries from his former and present employers.

He also has a savings account (nothing much here) with another bank and a dom account with a closing balance of $1,600

Now here’s what he wants to submit;

Planned trip expense for 14days: 1,200,000 (£2,200)
Avg Monthly expense: 300k (even dou account statement shows more, reason being monies can be sent to another account for savings)
**No prior visa refusal**


Intended Docs for submission:
1. 3 months payslip from new employer
2. An old pay slip from old employer
3. 6 months account statement of salary account (balance of 1.7m, where 1m just matured from fixed deposit investment) and dom account with balance of £2.2 (mostly cash lodgments)
4. Employer introduction letter showing resumption date, net monthly salary (700k) and leave times (coincides with proposed travel dates early next year)
5. Stamped page of passport
6. 2 Visas (UAE & Kenya within the last 4 years)
7. Promotion letters from old employer (bank)
8. Resignation letter to former employer (bank)
9. offer letter and ID card of new employer
10. NIN slip
11. A word doc explaining inflows and outflows outside salary above 200k e.g 800k loan repayment from a friend/colleague, debit for PTA for Kenyan trip, FX sales to a BDC staff.
12. Rent or utility bill receipt
13. Hotel booking
14. Brief Explanation on places to visit.
15. Shares certificate valued at N1.6mn


Please share your thoughts and advice.
Thanks

I got the mail to fill out the assessment on the 27th and the mail says I have about 4 days. I don't think the link has expired and my network isn't terrible either. I use a 4g enabled mifi device to connect. Any assistance would be appreciated.
