Good morning everyone.
I have a little concern and Ild appreciate a response from those who are more experienced

I am applying for a tier2 work visa and taking my husband and kids as dependants. My husband will travel with us and stay just 3days in the UK with us because he is still working (good job) in Nigeria

My job is demanding and I need assistance with my kids for at least the first 2-3weeks till I get some professional help.
Until then,I would like to apply for my Mom to visit ASAP

My question is..
Can my husband be her sponsor?
what will be her reason for visit ?
What do we write in her cover letter that can help?
When is the best time to apply? I’m starting work in January
At what point do I come-in in her application.

Pls help me. I need answers child care in UK is no joke

So I've worked in a media organisation which is one of the jobs listed on Visa application and I mentioned it. Do I need to submit anything to support it? Like appointment letter or anything?

You are right Nigeria is not in the list of countries who can use short stay visa to Ireland

DMainMan:
When I say host, I mean the brother who is inviting him to the UK.

There have been many refusals if the letter of invitation is vague

ecton:
Hi everyone.

I have a valid Uk multiple entry visit visa which I used for one week in October and the visa expires in April next year. I want to visit again this December to attend a family member's PhD graduation ceremony and also spend Christmas and new year holiday there. I'll be going with an invitation letter from the graduand and he will also be accommodating me. The total visiting duration would be about 3 weeks + (trying to get a decent fare rate in this rush period).
My worry is if there's any policy on returning visits or if there's a limit to the duration of visit, especially for a second visit.

justwise:
You were holding the wrong visa and as expected they refused you entry.

You need a short stay visa either from the UK or the Irish government

justwise:
That was just an example, with UK short visa you can visit Ireland and vice versa.

This is not for people holding student visa or Long term visitors to the UK. Its called Short stay visa waiver programme

Don't argue about something you don't know.

justwise:
Its possible

Please how are other schools in UK cheaper than the ones in London, even if there are the difference is not more than 2000 . Apart from Imperial , UCL and King college there is no master course from a London uni that is more than 18000 pounds . You can even see courses of 15000 in UCL (5th best in Uk) according to times .
Schools like Middlesex, Brunel university , university of west London are top schools too and cheap. So what are you saying.

The amount of exposure someone get in London is tremendous, trust me , if you are an IT or computer student , I would 100% advise you to go to a London uni . USA universities are more ahead in fact 2 times ahead of UK university in IT and computer courses. Is only schools in London that can one that higher exposure to reach the level of that in US

Hi @Justwise,

Brief history: I have a distant uncle(Mum's uncle) who is a UK pr. So I applied for a visit visa in May 2010 using the documentation he provided. I was actually refused for the "absence of credible evidence that he is related to me, not current SOA, doubt in my purpose of visit".  Presently studying in Ireland and intend to apply again. Most of my friends that applied for a tourist visa got the 6-month visa, even though most of them have family and friends in the UK, they didn't include. They only stated that they are going for tourism. Here is my question, I have a bro living there for a while now. I intend to sponsor myself, pay for accommodation and other expenses by myself as my temp student job & disposable income can cater for the travel expenses.  Kindly advise on how to go about this as I will like to answer the question "do you have any friends or family in the UK?" with a yes without requiring any documentation or letter from him.

Thanks

Good day, Who has any idea about student finance in England?

how do I Go about it.

Well said but abeg show me accommodation £100/week for London

frapzkid:
Abeg stop the stereotyping that London universities are expensive just because of additional 200 pounds someone would pay for maintenance, feeding and all. Is just a mere difference . In fact in London you can get accommodation of 100 per week meanwhile in the so called cheap Birmingham the average is 90 per week just 30 pounds extra a month.

Now see the benefits of schooling in London, there are more students Jobs. I have rarely seen a London student that is willing to work but can not see work slot where he can complete his 20 hours limit and a place where he can work madly during holidays.
Most London students that work earn at least 150 -250 per week during studies . A girl I know works as a carer in old people home, a waiter in an African restaurant and in A fast food joint . In fact there were lot of options for Her. During the holidays when she is allowed to work limitlessly , she took a minimum of 500 pounds per week .

Most people that school outside London complain that there are few students jobs ,because the limited ones have been taken. Even those that may have , they may not see the ones that complete their little 20 hours limit.
The options in London for student jobs are much take it or leave .


Now about looking for jobs afterwards, there are lots of jobs that are good for placements in London . Trust me no lie.

About universities quality , out of the top 20 universities in UK, majority are in London (King college, imperial college , UCL, London royal college , School of economics)
In fact all schools in London except from university of East London are in top 50 )


So what scares people from London, simple paying the little difference of 20 to 30 for accommodation. Such petty reasons

To me if I come back to UK again would either school at London or Manchester, no no to Villages like Nottingham, Newcastle , Middlesbrough is the worst self. Racism is more there

kolajoo:
Good morning, please kindly suggest a nice hotel in London or anywhere much affordable for me. I intend to spend 7nights and will 350-400 pounds be enough for 1week trip

Thank you

Good day everyone, I need your help/advice.

I applied for a 6month visit visa for 7days and got a refusal. Attached is a snapshot of the refusal letter.
Initially I attached two bank statements one with my travel money and also the account I use for personal stuffs with a maximum deposit of 500k with was a personal loan I received and explain it in the cover letter, I also attached I copy of the loan contract letter. The second account is a salary account with minor deposits of maybe 1200 multiple times, at most 30k.
My initial amount stated for travel was 300 pounds for shopping and miscellaneous cos my boyfriend was to cover all costs.
How soon can I reapply to enable me travel for Xmas (for about 3weeks this time)?
Also, should I provide just my salary acct bank statement when reapplying instead of both bank statements.
Thanks for your response(s).

Greetings,
I'm asking for a friend since I couldn't get a clear response online.
Can one travel to DUBLIN with a VALID UK VISA?
She lives in France with a valid stay permit.
Thanks.

Broadenyourhori:
It depends on what bases your brother got his leave to remain. If he is a student, there is a possibility for his wife to join him as a dependent as long they meet the conditions.

If he got his LR based on his child - Human right law, he cannot bring in a dependent until he gets his ILR.
