it doesn’t matter what your brother’s life or circumstances are… it is your circumstances that count on whether you will be issued a visa or not . What is the probability that you’ll come back

Nothing compares to having your own fund to support oneself. I don’t think embassy sees it as a good thing when you are using someone else fund to go on vacation.

It is acceptable to apply for a visa and say that a family member is paying for your studies, but doing so for a vacation is not a good one because the embassy wants you to show that you have home, family, and economic ties to your country.

I'm aware that some people do obtain it through family sponsorship, but the likelihood is quite low. Don't get me wrong; you can count yourself among the fortunate.

I am not here to discourage you. Just want to give you heads up that you need to do your homework right before you apply. Include all the documents you know will help your application.

I am not an employee of any embassy. This is just my own personal view.

what's the best thing to do if a student dependant visa comes with "No work, No Business,No public funds"

is it better to correct it while still in Nigeria or in the UK?

It is not unusual for mistakes to be made. It is important that you check your Visa as soon as it is granted for any mistakes and that these are reported to the UKVI immediately to avoid you pay for a replacement.

You can report the mistake to UKVI online. Use the link below

You can apply for transit visa through France or any of the Schengen countries.

You need the following if you apply through France
- Passport plus 1 photocopy
- Flight reservation
- visa to your final destination plus 1 photocopy
- Cover letter
- Evidence of fund
- Passport photos (2)

The amount to be paid is : 80 euros (€), or about 35k NAIRA.

If your application is straightforward, the processing time frame takes between 1 and 10 business days.

What will actually happen if you get to this EU countries without an ATV? Would they send you back or you won't even be able to board right here from Nigeria??

Makes no sense to me why they can't issue on arrival especially to trips ending in the UK.

Dear All

Unfortunately, my visit visa refused! it is disappointing but what is more disappointing is that reason for refusing!

You state that you spend up to £1,731 per month on living costs. You state that you will pay the costs of your visit and you will spend £1,350 on your proposed trip to the UK. As evidence of your financial circumstances and of the funds you have available to you, you have provided a bank statement in your name from **** Bank. However, I note that there are several monthly withdrawals which are higher than what you state you spend. I am therefore not satisfied that you have provided an accurate reflection of your true outgoings and personal/financial circumstances.


Like seriously! what a desperate reason to refuse my visa! I clearly stated in the comment that I do not spend exact amount every month! and that is what AVERAGE means!


what is more funny! I contacted UKVI (pain email) yesterday and they said your visa awaiting a decision! while yesterday I received an email after few hours that my visa is refused! What The !!!!

Really disappointing!


Any advice what is the best thing to do!!

Did you later face any problem at the Heathrow airport ??
adelejane:
Hi ,

Please all the gurus and experienced travelers kindly help answer this .

I have always traveled to UK through Edinburgh airport cos my family members were based in Scotland and i schooled there too . I'm planning to use Heathrow airport for the first time, don't have any families in the UK anymore they moved to Canada.

I'm travelling to UK as a tourist with 2 kids and we will spend 4 weeks but in our visa application form i stated 7 days, will this affect us at Heathrow airport ? i never had issues at Edinburgh airport was never even asked how long i plan to stay .

I have heard a lot about London Heathrow and want to go prepared . I also made arrangements for a short term vacation rental for 4 weeks cos i will need to cook and be more comfortable as i have minors, so this means I'm not going to the address stated on visa application and i even had to change travel date as the cost on British airways was very expensive for the date i filled on visa application, i moved travel date to a less expensive date in July and our return date is in August.

1. will it be an issue that we changed the length of stay in London form 7 days to 4 weeks?
2. will change of address also be an issue ?
3. must we have prove of accommodation printed? the flat we will be staying belongs to my husband's child hood friend , we can provide address but no booking evidence cos we will pay him directly ? what will you suggest we do?
