Good morning all please I still need answers to this urgently . Thank you!

Hello all please if someone is going to the uk for visit, do they have to book a hotel for quarantine, or can they stay with a family friend who’s willing to accommodate and feed them during their stay. Will this matter if they used hotel reservations to get their visa, Is it okay to say they’ll be staying with a family friend instead of hotel at the point of entry ?

Goodmorning all,please can a self employed individual apply for visit visa with only his personal bank account ? Or is it compulsory to include the business account ?

Plsss house I need more input on my stand with them

The mail has explained it all.
They have informed you that they have received your application and it would take longer than the usual time for processing(that’s customer service targets means normal time frame) as your documentation poses questions which they are investigating.However,a decision has not yet been made whether to approve or reject so they will try to hurry the process and give you an answer ASAP so wait to hear back from them.

gallantjo:
Please provide a clear copy of the passport photo page to be used for your visa application (colour preferred.

Please what do they mean
Passport photo or
International passport

They mean make a photocopy of the data page of your international passport( The page that contains your image and personal information).When reading any information try to pay attention to the head words,it says “Page” and your passport photo is not a page.

@deraal
True graduation is not a tie, and no officer will give you visa if you are staying for three months, but my spouse used only his company account to apply for visa and he got it. I think it depends on how you explain yourself in your cover letter.
Also, anyone using the self employed route to apply for a visa, and your company is not a scam just for visa purpose, always ensure your business has a Google presence at least that's if you can't afford to have a website. If makes your company look genuine. ( Advise from a friend who has worked at an embassy before , not UK embassy though, so UK may not use this as a requirement but at least just give it a try)

online presence is important and scales one through the hurdle very fast. Several refusal letters you see, they mention how there is no recognition online, no phone number, no email or one thing or the other.

They will pre- inform you if there’s interview . But might be a short notice . So just Incase you need to be ready for them . And you might not do it.

Hello dear, please I'd like us to connect. I've been looking for someone with similar interest regarding the UK Skilled Worker Visa route.

RennyKitty:
Hello, how are you?
Please can you drop an email or phone number I can reach you with? I need some guidelines on how you went about the skilled worker visa particaularly how you got the certificate of sponsorship. All the jobs have been applying too are not ready to sponsor. Do you know any agency recruiting for HCA visa? Will be grateful For any positive information you are willing to share. Thanks

Hello dear, we're both in the same situation. I've been posting questions regarding the UK Health and Care Worker Visa route here but haven't got any responses. It appears this thread may not be the right one for this new visa route.
Please let's all join hands and call upon @ Justwise to create a new thread specifically dedicated to the 'UK Skilled Worker Visa / Health and Care Worker Visa'. Thanks.

kofomii:

ucystan:
Hello,

Pls i need help. I work in a school with 107k as salary which i use all every month, asin my account goes down to 0.00 every month (even before the month ends) but my hubby wants to sponsor me with about 1.5M, and he intend transferring this money into my account. My question is now what bank statements am i to show? Do i need to also submit hubby's statement with mine even though he has transferred the money into my account or do i submit only his payslips and my bank statement. Pls what documents do i need to submit in other to show/suggest he is my sponsor?

ucystan:
Oh thank you so much for this reply. So my sister is actually the one inviting me and she just told me now that she doesn't mind standing in as a sponsor too since she has every qualifying document with a closing balance of £8k, but at the same time i dont want to submit my account statement empty, so i am thinking of reducing the money hubby will transfer to 600k or 700k for flight since she will be providing accomodation and feeding. I also don't intend shopping because i am only attending her baby's Christening . At the same time i wouldn't want to add/submit my hubby's statement of account bcus he is running on some loans and wouldn't look nice.

I will be surprised if you are given a visa

Has Anyone Ever Taken A Nanny To The U.K. On A Domestic Worker in a Private Household Visa?
If yes, how long did the application take? Also, do you know if it is possible for the nanny to travel with someone who is a family member of the person listed as an the employer, in the absence of the employer?
I'm asking because I've just done the application for my nanny and the visa is still not out after the 15 working days we were advised. Now I'm considering traveling without her so that she can come later with either my husband or my brother.
Please need urgent advise or contact information for someone who can advise.

I am trying to finish my application online. My yk visa fee is $520 and I have tried to use my gtb and zenith naira master cards without success (insufficient funds or bank declined transaction)

Can someone advise on alternative payment method that works? Maybe a bank you are sure of or how I can go about it.

Thanks in anticipation
