Hello everyone. Please, can someone point us in the right direction to apply for a UK standard visa to attend an academic conference? Someone has probably answered it in the thread, but we have spent hours reviewing the thread to no avail. The application is for a Canadian PR, and we don't know which of the options to choose in the below photo.

As soon as you submitted and plus the fact that your dependants have been granted visa, your documents have already been used to make a decision, so there is no point paying any percentage for your POF. You can take out the money and use.
lamjer:


Thank you very much, I’m just worry and at the same time I don’t want to get worry because there’s no way they will give the dependants and then refused the main applicant but damn I’m still paying % to those I got POF from, so I don’t know if I can remove the money from my account, can I ?

Does this warrant you using insulting word(Nauseating) be calming down and The first you screenshot was asked for different person and this I asked was for another case scenario and they aren’t for me.



If you have answers to the first questionA, why not use the same answers to solve question B since they are similar question, it doesn't sound nice repeating the same question every now and then.

He said ,he declare the last recent one which was 2012 but didn’t declare 2011 that he’s not aware all past refusals should be declare.
US CANADA UK AUSTRALIA are cousins. Declare their refusal for each of the application you make on their portal. There Immigration works as a chain that's why UK pulled out of Brexit.
To tighten there Immigration from influx of Western/Eastern Europe. As an alien you need to tell them your circumstances during the refusal. Past 10 years for any other country, lifetime declaration for Cousin Countries..

Hello Guys, please i have a quick question.
When you send the paid mail, how long does it take. I just sent one and the email says 5 working days to respond.
For those who have sent paid mail, does it really take 5 working days or can it be shorter.
Appreciate anyone that can respond to this.

All may/june Applicant's both New/Renewal will receive a feedback latest September 31st... (Some may fall in July/August/Sept) all depend on were your application was sent for consideration. Embassy staffs does not have power on the decision making so as DMC varies.
Be patient , go about your businesses and stay awoke.

I think this varies. Not sure how they are doing this.
Just to share though.
My brother did his biometrics in Lagos (VI) on the 26th of May 2022.
He got an email to pick up his passport on the 20th of June 2022.
He paid for the standard visa application, and this was a 6 months renewal. The last time he was in London was in 2015.
PS - Visa was granted.

Hello, i am sorry but is there a difference from people who applied for Visa and have done biometrics and people that are waiting.
Honestly not clear. My understanding is that once biometrics have been done, then one waits for a response for the visa application.
Kindly help clarify my understanding.

Usually renewal means your application have been on their portal with unique GWF number. So to run through your application is easier than new application. On the other hand most renewal get delay if it's spousal permit , study route, family reunion, business permit. Etc...For obvious reasons its their pace settings.

Possibly not as Canada that provide same UCI.. anyways there must be a unique identifier for every application made either in the past...

Good morning.
Pls, my question is on proof of fund.
After opening an account I will be using for the Pof, a fund transfer of the said amount needed was transferred, hope there will not be any issues after one month when it will be printed for Visa application.
Thanks.

Your current statement must cover the full air ticket of each of you depending if one of the kids is less than a year old . Living expenses for your trip if no sponsor from overseas.,add Miscellaneous fees too. Your budget is your responsibility.

It all depends where the funds emanated from! If from your domicile account have you done such transfer in your previous transactions within previous months/years ago with the both accounts. Large deposits must be clarify on your SOA/COL....Gudluck!!!

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by TiffanyDavies(f): 3:06pm On Jul 26, 2022
Hello,

This is a follow-up to yesterday's question; after choosing the business category, one of the optional documents the UK gov requested is a letter from the employer/business sponsoring the trip. The problem is that the trip is self-sponsored and coincides with time off work (vacation). The intent is to attend the conference for two days to boost the attendee's portfolio for research publications and go sightseeing for the remaining 7-day-stay. The above are personal plans, and the employer has no input. The company's culture does not include leave of absence letters. Anyone is free to travel with full salaries for up to one month in a calender year as long as they meet yearly quotas.

Wouldn't the above travel plan be more suited to a tourist visa than any other type of visa? If yes, isn't it better to choose the 'other option in the photo below and explain the situation? Is the 'other' option applicable to tourist visas? The 'other' option only requires three documents: a passport, proof of funds and documentation showing legal residency in the country of residence. We assume that the other documents one can include in this category include a conference invitation, UK travel itinerary and travel plans to other countries for the vacation's duration.

Also, what would be anyone's best recommendation for a hotel reservation? The conference venue is close to the airport. Is it better to lodge in an airport hotel for the conference duration and move to a hotel in the touristy area afterwards? Please help!

Can I just visit the embassy to complain without prior appointment?
I don't live in Lagos or Abuja and would not want to go on a wasteful journey ....but the wait is crazy. Any time I reply my paid mail, they keep telling me my case has been escalated to the department responsible

Today UKVI responded to my latest mail that if by 5tg August I have not been contacted on my application outcome, I should get back to them.

My bio date was March 15th at Abuja TLS. First time visitor visa.

After 20 weeks of waiting, the frustration not be here oh
