@justwise Hello there. My monthly salary is about 362k and will have a closing balance of about 1M. Should I still submit my savings account, which has the unexplained deposit? I have my salary certificate and approved leave form as worry357 suggested.

Your closing balance is good. Make sure you include your payslips tobshow your monthly income.

Justwise, My name is Oladele, 26yrs, just got married, earned 130k per month with over 800k balance in my account. i want to use my vacation opportunity to do a one day refresher course in London. Do i stand a chance of giving a visa? comment please.My employer promised to refund the money when i return from the training.

If your employer promised to refund you, that is a private matter between you and them. If your company is not giving you documents for the trip, then there is no need to include this details in your application. Just apply for general visit, fill your form well, and package your documents well.

You need to ensure that your documents are appropriate and your form is well filled before you can get your visa. No one will give you 90% when you haven't stated your documents nor the balance in your account. Everything you intend submitting have to be appropriate.

[quote author=kenyandude post=33756888]please house I need your help badly and urgently......is it advisable to use a fixed bank account for student visa application and please How much do I need to have in my account for the 28 days because I have ckecked their site and I couldn't find it. Thanks [/
Don't use a fixed deposit account. Put the money into a savings account instead. The money you need will depend on your school fees, and your living expenses.

I have done a new booking and emailed it to the lagos consular office since my acknowledgement mail said my application is being treated there...my chances are next to hopeless still?

Most times the Embassy does not attend to documents you send to them via courier(especially when they did not request for it). If you are lucky, you may be invited for an interview before a decision is made on your application. If you are called, you can go with a printout of your reservation, but if they call the hotel and are told that your reservation I'd canceled, I don't think the result will be favorable in such a case.

HELP, i was refused last year April and a friend of mine living in the UK a citizen to be precise said he is going to provide all the necessary document from there including his bank statement and co. i want to be sure if they'll give me this time because i already said i have nobody there in my first application, Secondly i said i was working but he insisted i should say i'm doing my masters presently so i'll be able to get some letters and school receipts to back the application up.. Plz what should i do

In your last application you said you didn't know anybody in UK, now you suddenly have a friend that wants to sponsor you, how does this sound to you? If you were the Eco will you not suspect foul play? You have to maintain The information you gave the first time. Just work on it and you will succeed

Pls i really nd ans so as to know weda to postpone ma visit to a later time, tnx

Cc: justwise

1) There is no specified minimum amount for a visit visa application
2) For visa fee information visit www.Gov.uk. For cost of flight ticket, it depends on the flight you choose to use and the season(in summer tickets are usually higher). For passport info, visit any Immigration office near you
3) Yes you can put all necessary documents and apply a month before your leave starts

Also please note that 80K to 100K salary is quite small for self-sponsorship, especially with the present exchange rate. But it is possible with proper planning.

Thanks @Justwise, I pay the cheque into my personal account[b]. Same account that i have so much personal inflow[/b] So you mean no need to add info about those companies I consult for and also the company that normally pay me from china through my dom account?

Thanks

The inflow of cash into your account must be explained. Some people have been refused for having too much unexplained funds in their account. Ask the companies you consult for to give you contract agreement for your service, they can also write reference letters to support your application. For the cheques you are paid, submit copies of the checks you were paid, and ask your company to write about this in the reference letter they will give you. Submit your original employment letter so that the Eco will see the terms of your payment

OK justwise, but I noticed the other threads are focused on several issues and enquiries. I wanted to start a thread that is focused on helping people who have applied before but have been refused. I am presently helping an old lady fill her online form, she is a humanbeing like you and I, and she needs my help because she can't fill the form on her own. Anyway cheers.

Hello, I think you are a good writer. You need to write more often. I just read through your thread, and even though I have no interest in studying further(I am a graduate), I read because it was interesting.

As someone who has witnessed the sadness and heartbreak of applicants who have been refused UK visa, I feel a need to help such applicants in their quest for a visa. I will not respond to people who are not going to UK genuinely (this is a major reason why people are refused). If you apply for a visit visa, your intension should be to visit, and not to hustle. If you apply for a student visa, your intention should be to study and not to work. Having the right intention means you are genuine and I will like to use my experience in helping you get your Visa.
A few years back, I was so desperate to travel to UK, I wanted to leave this country by all means. Although I was working, I kept being refused. I got my first UK visa, when I decided I didn't want to runaway from Nigeria anymore. Haven worked with a partnering client to the Embassy, I saw a lot of applicants(genuine applicants) waste thousands of naira on visa application, and they were still refused.
For those who think they can apply on their own, I have this answer for them; when you are sick you go to a doctor for help, when you have problems with the law, you go to a lawyer, when you need to hear God's word you go to a Pastor or Priest, when you want to genuinely travel but you are being frustrated you need to seek help from a travel consultant. I am here to help you because I feel bad when I see genuine people wasting their hard earned money and still get negative result.
If you have been refused a visa before, you will need to address the reasons for your refudal. I am here to help you address this issues. Only post if you are genuine and let's work together to see you succeed. My first question is why were you refused?
