Hello everyone its been a while here....pls gurus in the house...I was in the UK December 2020 and I left the UK may 2021 which is after 5 months...today makes it a year that I left the UK I want to go again in December....I think I have respected them by not over staying so I should have a big chance of getting the visa again right? My other question is should I apply for six months again or 2 yrs...your response will be appreciated pls...I want to start the process soon....

Please house, i have a number of concerns about my standard visitor visa application:

1. I used 2 bank account statements. Each 4 months duration(2 Jan to 28th April). The first one is my salary account. It was duly signed and has transaction narratives, though it didnt reflect the April salary in the closing balance (cos i printed it same day the salary came in) but it did reflect it in the stated usable balance. The second account statement had no transaction narrative and was not signed. In fact, the banks contact details were not included but mine were. In the cover letter, i explained that the source of the fund in this second account is from the 1st account and I also explained every significant transaction in it but i didnt put any document to show when the money was transferred from the 1st account to the 2nd.

2. The amount in each individual account is less than the amount i stated as savings in the visa appl form, but when put together, the sum of the amount in both accounts is more that what i stated in the visa application. In the cover letter, i presented the 2nd account as one i use for saving, so I explained that the money in the 2nd account is less than what i stated in the visa appl form because i had withdrawn money for visa payment, bookings, etc after i submitted the visa appl online but before submitting documents on tlscontact site. I added the second account becos of the amount i stated in the visa appl form - i felt they were asking me to declare any other savings i have apart from my income(salary) and also becos i feared the amount in the 1st account would not be enough (not upto 3x the budgeted expenses for the trip - the rumored 3x rule)

2. I made some mistakes in my cover letter. I stated 1st June 2020 as the date i started work instead 1st July 2020, though i stated the correct date in some other places in the cover letter and visa appl form. My employment letter, payment slips and letter of intro also carry the correct date. Another mistake is that i wrote 8th june 2022 instead of 18th june 2022 as departure date from uk but i stated the correct date (18th june 2022) in other places in the cover letter and the visa appl form. My bookings reflect the correct dates as well. Lastly i supplied 3 months payslip (Jan to March 2022) but mistakenly stated Jan to May 2022 in the cover letter though somewhere in the cover letter i had explained that April salary was paid the day i submitted my documents and so the payslip was not yet available.

All these mistakes make me worried about the visa appl.

Pls house, are my worries valid? Is there anything else i can do but to pray, watch and hope for the best?

For those who did biometrics on 28th March, how far any news?

I sent paid email on Monday, they replied yesterday that a decision has been made further asking me to wait for 10 working days to get collection mail from VAC.

This morning, I tracked my application and it has moved from DMC to Transfer to VAC.

I did not get any refusal email (I'll never get that IJN �). Can I start dancing yet?

abdulhaphiz:
Hello good people. Anyone who just got a dependent visa, what's the validity (i.e. how many months are they giving for it to be used? )

Hmmm I understand why you are worried. But you know, God can do anything. Pray and stop worrying. May God's will be done. Please come back to share your testimony.
