AmeliaT , giselle237 please advise me , am about to start my application.

AmeliaT:
Everything looks good but make sure your cover letter is strong, you’re clear on what you’re going for and you also include your budget. Do not start with a zero balance. But I also believe that apart from the 1.8m, you should have a savings account. My husband’s current account didn’t have much- it was just about 2m- similar to yours but he submitted our savings account as well which had about £25k. He even submitted the one year statement showing consistent inputs in the account and zero withdrawals. So, make sure you also have a savings account as that truly legitimizes your claim of leading a great career. Married? Add marriage certificate and bio data of spouse and explain what your spouse does and your entire family situation.

My husband’s cover letter explained- the nature of his business, number of staff who rely on him for monthly salary, also reinforced his monthly revenue and even stated they have an expansion plan etc.

Mattycoke:
Hi, add marriage certificate and pictures to it if you are married. Not married yet How long are you staying for? 10 days [/b]What is your opening balance? [b]zero naira balance Also write things to do in a cover letter. Thing like what sir

@leef2022
You were given 3 opportunities but did not reply them, you were so lucky, that was a fair refusal.
Your spouse would have responded with whatever the circumstances was at the time.
You will have to wait for there response anyway.

Help!!!
Hello everyone
I applied for uk spouse visa 12/08/2021
I got my visa refused in 29/11/2021
Reason was “”You have not submitted the following required documents as listed above. We wrote to you on 21/10/2021, 27/10/2021 and 12/11/2021. We gave you the opportunity three times to provide your sponsors last financial year (ending April 2021 with your application date being 12/08/2021) documents (CT600 and Accounts). Each reply from your representatives provided us with the same CT600 and accounts for the period May 2019 to April 2020.
You have therefore failed to provide the required documents relating to your sponsor’s employment. These documents are specified in the Immigration Rules in Appendix FM- SE and must be provided. I therefore refuse your application under paragraph EC- P.1.1(d) of Appendix FM of the Immigration Rules. (E-ECP.3.1)””
I put in an appeal immediately and I also request for a decision reconsideration on 2/2/2022 as we have been able to get the CT600 (April 2020 to April 2021)but I haven’t gotten any feedback on that yet.
To go for the appeal I hear it takes I read it takes 6-12 month.
Instead of just waiting endlessly, we are considering reapplying in March (priority)
PS: we can only use the CT600 2020-2021 before April if we are to reapply .
We feel like since that was the only reason we were refused , we stand a better chance
All opinions are welcome
Thanks in advance

Thanks a lot for responding. I have heard what you said, just that my case is somehow complicated with this bank statement thing. I am kind of scared with it coz all the refusals I have been seeing here are mostly based on it. And if one does not get it right, then it will be a total waste of time and money.
I need to be open on this. The two accts I have are savings. The second one i don't have much on it. But I run it all the time with a lot of deposits and withdrawal. Betting activities and other transactions. I would not want to use that for the visa stuff so I opt to use the other acct that doesn't have much activity on it but with a zero naira balance.

Hello everyone. I plan to make a family UK visa application and I need a few clarification to set me I the right direction.
We are a family of 5 and passport of 3 out of the 5 expire 09/22 while the remaining two expire sometime in 2024. The purpose of travel is for a commitment early August 2021 to leave mid August 2022 (08/22). We have never visited the UK.
My question is with sufficient proof of return, would the visa application be affected due to the travel date been very close to date of passport expiry?
Secondly due to delays in Nigerian passport processing and the closeness of travel date to the passport expiry date, how do you advise I approach the issue to passport renewal?
Thanks for your responses.

Hello all, kindly assist with opening time for passport collection at Tls centre Ikeja.

giselle237:
purpose of travel is for commitment August 2021? 2021 is past. You can apply for visa 3 months to when you plan on entering the UK. If you qualify, you will be given. On the side passprts expiring in September 2022 can be renewed from March 2022. The passport renewal process can be going on on the side

giselle237:
if you feel your chances are shaky at the moment or complicated as you termed it, why then must you apply now? There’s no point going back and forth on the thread on the same circumstance. Nobody is an eco here to be honest with you, you have been given advice based on what ppl feel, the onus is is left on you to convince yourself first before convincing a visa officer. If you feel convinced, go for it.. if not, then wait more. There is no hard and fast rule.
You can do a lump sum and then continue the normal way with saving accordingly the ffg months, then not printing off the month with the lump sum or not do it at all.. there’s no way to tell if the visa will be granted. Your overall circumstance will be looked at, what will make this person come back.

You stated that the relative wants to make a new application. Thus, i meant if the relative can't recall past travel history after all efforts to do so, whilst filling visa application, where you have; have you ever been granted, denied, issued or gain entry to the UK or whichever country that maybe and as applicable, the relative would need to answer yes and no where appropriate. And if further the application, the relative is to give specifics of the visa/travel or immigration history as in regards with the application, the relative should state- I am not able to recall due to lost of my previous travel documents, which in such an event, the police report would help support such claims. I hope this helped.. otherwise, I may not have understood your initial post
