Is there anybody for April 29 biometrics that has received a feedback yet ?

infosoftlife:
Mine took less than a mon for th and it was overturned and I got my 10 yrs visa.

Tailadivaaaa:
Good afternoon all. I am finding this trend very useful. A big thank you to all the contributors. I am supporting my husband for a visiting visa application and I provided my bank statements. We intend to travel together. I already have my visa. I got a call from the bank today saying they want to confirm if I provided the statements in support of his application as they have to confirm to the visa office. I thought it was a bit weird as I wasn’t aware this was a thing . That was all she asked and I answered in the affirmative. I just want to know if this is normal procedure as I haven’t heard about it before. Thank you.

Funny, got a response last night and it's laughable.

The first reason is my dads address and I do not live with him anymore since I opened the account when I got into the university and graduated already, also my dads address was clearly filled in the form for family.

The second reason I do not understand because I have been saving for a long time and when GTBank moved their CBS redeposited my money that's why the opening balance is high, not even for the UK, opening balance is money that you have saved till the point the bank statement started. Plus, I was even transacting on the account and the remaining balance was about 3.5KGBP and I said I had 5K GBP in savings so included my salary account statement which had $6K and clearly shows my salary coming in and transaction made as well.

I even included different pictures of me and my dad, family (even picture with my aunt that invited me we took when she was in nigeria) also me at my work place because I still traveled there this year.

1st Application
Applied with my two children – Visa refused.

2nd Application
Again, applied with my two children – Visa refused.

3rd Application
Applied alone – Visa refused.

4th Application
Applied alone – Visa refused.

5th Application
Applied with my two children.

UKVI contacted me to provide an additional document, which I submitted.
My visa and my daughter’s visa were approved, but my son’s remained pending.
I kept calling UKVI until the issue was escalated. Eventually, they reached out and apologized, explaining it was a technical issue and not my fault.
The following week, I received the approval email and call from UK asking me to go to Vfs without pick up mail which I did.

Just picked up the passport.
VISA APPROVED for three of us.

Bottom line: All our visas were finally approved.

I learned a lot from this platform, which gave me the confidence to handle the application process on my own. I also backed it up with heartfelt prayers and praise to GOD!

Sometimes, when you've done everything right and things still don’t work out, it may be spiritual. That’s why I turned to prayer.

To anyone going through this journey—don’t give up, no matter what.
They may say no, but GOD has the final say. PERIOD!

Wishing you all the very best!

Letter of sponsorship
All email correspondence with sponsors
Employment letter

6 months payslip from work. I also had to explain the change in salary reflecting in February payslip and bank statement in my cover letter.
6 months savings access bank statement and reference letter.
6 months savings corporative bank statement and reference letter
6 months salary account bank statements and reference - I explained major credits, mostly from my consultancy work and attached evidence.

Then I prayed for favour to be successful.

Going forward I have decided to have a clean salary account and limit inflow to only my salary and 2 major debits with clear narrations - Monthly Expenses, and Monthly savings, which I will transfer to another account. I started doing this from my March Salary and intend to continue with it.

Thank you everyone for your guidance that really helped.

Hello house

Pls we are looking for Davodyguy, he as not come online for a while,what happened,we need his contribution on this forum, anybody with his contact should help us inform him that his present is needed on the forum.Thanks

eniola1010:
1) omo i dont know how u will compress 150 pages oh. U can ask around if there are apps that can do that

2) yes u can scan all that in one file and upload

eniola1010:
Ur number 1 is the application form, and yes you should upload it because that is what that slot is for

Cashmadam:
Madam/Sir. You are causing unnecessary stress for yourself.

You do not need to include Numbers 1, 3, 13, 14, 16 and 18.

They add no value to your application.

kentdealer:
Just click on reschedule or cancel and read what you click next closely. Give reason to cancel and read the two options next.

Cashmadam:
Yes, you can and should use your personal account for the visa application. You may also include your business account - to prove that you have a legitimate source of income.

However, is it possible for you to buy your goods through your business account - not your personal account?

You have not fully seperated your personal and business accounts if you continue to buy your goods through your personal account. It is important that you fully seperate the accounts to avoid issues.

I hope this helps.

Cashmadam:
Doesn't matter. You can add and remove dependants as your personal circumstances change.

For instance, your children may no longer be your dependants once they are adults and are working. Your parents may no longer be your dependants if they are now abroad and living with one of your siblings.

It is not a big deal at all. Just be honest with your individual applications and you will be fine.

Good luck!

davodyguy:
We told you to separate business account from personal account.

How can you be using same account for personal and business dealings?
