You are wrong at the bolded
Yes they will find out fake statements of account. There are things not supposed to be said here but To bust you bubble justwise I have gotten visas after removing money from my bank account in the same bank statement of account submitted which will show that the current balance will not be same when check by embassy at the time of processing my application. They only confirm the authenticity of the statement they don’t expect applicant not to make use of their money in the bank after submitted visa application and bank will not disclose the current bank but only confirm the authenticity of the statement.

Its your bank account and you are entitled to service it even during UK visa application processing. Justwise was referring to a an old technique of applicant doing fund lodgment to impressed the ECO and withdrawing the fund after printing out their bank statement. Like it has been said, the ECO can go to any length to verify financial statement when there is a red flag particularly for first time applicant.

Oh wrong nau. You are wrong.
I am not sure of the UK visa thread but on the UK student thread.. there are lots of examples..
At least the ones I saw with my eyes, UKVI wanted to messg keystone bank about the account presented.
They boldly asked the bank to confirm the authenticity of the statement and the current account balance. Currnt account balance o. As per how much is there now.
How we saw it on the forum was the eco had mistakenly sent this mail to the applicant instead of the bank in the first instance. The applicant came and posted the email for us to see.
No 2 example, someone received visa refusal. The eco stated it there in the refusal letter the specific dates that the money in the account had gone from millions to 600 naira. 600 naira. The date was written specifically in the refusal letter whereas the statement the chap submitted was upto when account balance was bulky.
Another method used by the ECOs, once they have done their checks and realised the monies have been taken out, they send not straight forward emails to the applicants asking them for new statemnt of account. In this emails they give specific dates. Go back and check, these dates are the times the applicant removed the money grin

Immediately, you will start seeing these brothers and sisters sending me msgs up and down about what to do …

So please hrprof maybe it is other embassies, but you see this UK if they want to ask for and get your account balance esp for UK student visa they do not waste time.

you may also need an introduction letter from the company
ensure that the company has an active CAC PROFILE
if possible add the company statement of account if you can have access to it

I need some help please. I am not able to get my tax clearance from my employer. Being trying to chase up with them. Has anyone applied without it and got the visit visa?. Is it mandatory to provide it?

You don’t need a Tax clearance certificate. As per your financial status -: Simply support your application with your employment verification letter, bank statement and your pay slips

So this happened to my misses, DHL were the ones who didn’t deliver her certificate or contact her. They had it on their table, she missed her biometric date because of it. She literally walked into their office in Lagos, they then contacted the Abeokuta branch (She lives on Ije ode) and they then apologised and brought it to her house in Ode.

Try and contact DHL, I swear they have it sitting on their office table somewhere. They would give you a tracking number after you contact them or they would directly track it for you.

Logistics in Nigeria is a pain for the citizens.

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by DFmum: 1:40pm On Apr 06, 2022
Please am trying to use the paid call to know update on my family application but its not going through, that it has not exceeded timeline to give me an update. I don't know what they meant by that.

This is 9weeks of successful administrative review and I was told it has been escalated last week I called them. Does escalation takes so much time?
And I can't even use the paid call anymore, don't know why.

I did not make the rules. Only stating what we have been seeing on this forum.
Also before submitting visa applications, at the end there are certain questions you are asked about authorizations you give and at the end, you sign. If you dont want… do not sign and certainly do not proceed with the application. They have never put a gun to anyone’s head to apply for visa to the UK. this is my take.

Very exhausting waiting time, New ECO please make decision quick o
giselle237:
hi. they overturned the decision of Dec 2021 and sent back for it to be readjudged. I believe once the new ECO makes a decision, they will reach you. The wait must be exhausting

ok this is strange. I was however referring to picking up from British council offices. In those days, they usually had a particular day of the week for pick up.

I don’t think you need to add CAC documents since the company doesn’t belong to you. I believe employment verification letter, leave letter and your payslips from the company is enough to proof that you an employee of the company.

Above statement is my own personal opinion on how I will handle my application if I am in your position.

Amazing, you are lucky. My wife wasted her time contacting IELTS or whatever their name is, was told her certificate was issued a few days after the results was displayed online, she missed her biometrics because of it.
