This is not school related. I am applying for a work visa. I just do not understand the phrase as I have to either click yes or no there

You need an IELTS or any approved English exam for work Visa.
Have you taken an IELTS test and did you pass the minimum test score? If you did, then select YES

Please house still expecting a response.

Hello House its nice to see Nairaland is still going strong. please this is my situation.

I applied for a UK visiting visa with my husband on the 11th of Feb. and on the 21st of feb we did our biometrics.
On the 8th of March I received 3 emails that my passport passport is ready for collection, that it has been returned to courier and dispatched by courier and on the 9th of March i got my passport. My husband has his graduation on the 8th of April which was the stated reason for our trip. He is the sponsor of the trip and we used only his bank statement. As at today, He is yet to hear anything or get any mail from TLS. Unfortunately this delay is also affect our US appointment. What can i do please?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by deuoessch: 1:51pm On Mar 31, 2022
Just left...swift enough. I was able to speak about the refund of the "Keep my passport" service to two people. The passport wasn't returned. That's good, right?

I remember last year when TLS was always crowded, a woman came late.... She was bluntly refused entrance despite her pleading, she was asked to go and reschedule.
Thank you

I don't think arriving late is good. A day before my biometric, which was yesterday, I visited the centre to locate the place so that I will go straight today. One of those girls outside the gate who run around trying to help people upload documents and all that told me that I would pay up to 40k plus if I arrive late. I don't know if this is true. But, when I was convinced that there would be a big penalty if you come late on your appointment date was when I got inside today, very early though, but told them I wanted to go and get my ATM card for one payment like that, the security girl inside told me not to try it, that the penalty would be too huge for me to pay. I believe lateness has a huge penalty. You don't want to fall for this.
Okay thank you

Good day guys. Please I need your help. My husband and I got refused uk visitor visa today. Find attached our refusal letter. They said my husband’s cac documents says inactive and I was rejected because he is being rejected. Kindly advice on the next course of action as we really want to go for the vacation. We have both been to the US. I had my 2 kids in the US but I don’t have a valid us visa. They wrote something about history. Attached is the letter. Should we reapply?? Or just leave them be. Our accounts are very well funded btw. He’s very capable of sponsoring the trip as personal account has more than 15m. I need suggestions please, for them to say funds are not available doesn’t make sense.

Not anymore, that is no longer a requirement for entry to the UK. If you look back a couple of pages a lot of posters have answered this same question along with screenshots of gov.uk.

Why was the company inactive? Is the company still trading? No point in re-applying if that part isn’t sorted.

I plan to correct that by filing annual returns with cac. I really want to know if this has happened to anyone and they were given the visa after rectifying it and also how they went about it. Anyone can pm me with suggestions too. Thank you

About 6/7 pages down this thread the same thing that happened to your application happened to someone else. They refused then based on the checks which classified it as “Inactive and not trading” so if they find that about the company then they would NOT believe whatever funds you presented as having in a bank account.

Hopefully if that is rectified moving forward then you guys would be successful.

My question is always/still why is the company showing up as inactive? Is that because of the “Non-filling?”

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by tytmed: 8:56am On Apr 01, 2022
I thought about that too. we paid for DHL so even if its ready but not updated DHL should deliver.
Is it better to email or call due to the urgency?

Well my husband’s company shows inactive and he files his annual returns at his business year end.

What he did during his visa application was that he attached the acknowledgement slip given to him for filing his annual return at CAC stating that he has filed for the period of 2020/2021 and he should endeavour to file the following year after his year end.
His visa was issued without any complain

That’s because he covered all the basis, the attachment of the acknowledgment slip is a genius move on his part.

No way would your company show up as “inactive” and you haven’t cover yourself and you are expecting to be granted the visa. These people would look for every little excuse to deny people.

Let him file annual returns and also pay the penalty fees for defaulting (if any). Having been successful with this, send an email to spu@cac.gov.ng with the annual returns acknowledgement, requesting CAC to update his records on their portal. The whole process should take between 1 to 7 days. I believe you can reapply afterwards.

I just check my company on CAC suprised is showing inactive and I called someone I know in CAC office and the person said I need to pay for annual returns after that I will still need to pay to reactive it to show active online with 25k does paying only annual returns solve this

You cannot use a naira denominated card because there's a 20$ dollar limit from most / all banks now. Try to use barter app (uses black market rate) or use a dollar card from your dom account if you have one. Lastly, if you have a friend in the UK / US, you can send the equivalent to them and they you make use of their card for payment.
