Good evening house, can someone reapply immediately after a refusal if the reason for refusal was a misconception and can one also change travel date which would be different from the 1st application which was refused?

Aibisoye0:


You can fly Airfrance KLM if you have Schenghen visa

I don't have Shengen Visa. Someone suggested Air Maroc

Nchabuomo:

You can do a transit visa. Or check other travel dates perhaps you can get a lower fare.

Yes you can reapply and can change non identifying information as each application is treated on its own merit.

Tier 2 visa is for those that are sponsored by an employer in the UK, given a contract of employment and then issued a Certificate of sponsorship to come to the uk by same UK sponsor/employer. Are u sure this is the visa category u should be applying under?

Not sure..I'm trying to reach an informed decision, hence my questions on this platform.

My opinions have been between T2 &T5.

@Justwise, Lexus??, Lagosismyhome and other guru's.... please react to this from your wealth of knowledge/experience....

I put that up there so you can study eligibility criteria as i don’t quite understand if you are employed by the Nigerian govt or the uk govt as you say you have a Cos.Plus you are a little vague on the grant is it to study or for research purposes.I feel if you have a scholarship technically you are a student and not a highly skilled worker(No disrespect to your field).
Do you have a CAS or a COS?.

What other method can I use for payment apart from having a dorm account and barter by flutterwave (network issue)

Please assist.

Good afternoon...just wondering...can one get a care support or clinical care or HCA jobs via NHS from Nigeria. Some of the NHS Hospitals sometimes put there that applications from overseas for a Tier 2 visa are welcomed. But in real sense, will they be willing to grant certificate of sponsorship from Nigeria.

Good day everyone,

I am about to apply for a UK tourist visa for the first time.
A very close friend is inviting me over, she is a Nigerian with a British passport.
I work in Nigeria and I am married with two kids.
My issue is that my savings is not up to 1m. I intend to stay for two weeks, the 10days quarantine inclusive.
I will be staying at her place throughout my stay.
One more thing, I have a sister in the UK who is also a British national.
Any advise?

[quote author=Tutu82 post=102582316][/quote]
I will be visiting a long time friend, who will house me, feed me and generally take care of me in the UK. I intend to stay for two weeks, the 10 days quarantine inclusive and I will be indoors most times...I don't intend to spend much apart from gifts on my return. What do u think?

Thanks so much, it's readable

Use the TLS website. There's a tracking option from the landing page.

The page you see when you click on provide biometrics on the UKVI site.

Pls I can find the tracking option on the TLScontact website.

So she would provide you a letter of invitation, Data page/proof of British citizenship,council Tax/electric or gas bill and payslips/work letter.
All you need really is return ticket and miscellaneous which would be under £900/522K.
Thats just about half your savings which is a huge chunk to blow just to be able to look around for 4 days but you are eligible as you have someone to take care of you and have some money of your own.
The outcome can go either way.
