Lol worry about the marriage first.

Please does a visit visa come in an enclosed envelope together with an instruction on an A4 sheet outlining one’s permission to stay in the UK just like the student visa, as my mum just picked up her travel document with just the visa vignettes alone and this is her first time. Please I need clarification

Hello house, I’m a silent reader here, but I have a feeling that I have goofed with my visa application after reading all the informations provided here. I would commend Giselle and co, you guys are doing well. I would also agree with the guy who said that if you get one message from TLS after biometrics and Two Messages from UKVI, that it means your application would be approved, because I remember when I applied for UK visa in 2016, when I went for pickup, a lady there was saying that if you have a reference tag attached to your envelope, it means your application was approved, but if you don’t , then the reverse is the case. Unfortunately, I didn’t see the reference stuff on my envelope and when I opened it, I saw a refusal note. So the guy might be right. Now for my goofing, I didn’t know flight tickets are not compulsory, but I already booked Virgin Atlantic return tickets for 21st October. Now I just cancelled it. I think that has already affected the application. Now I put in property docs, bank statements (both dom and naira), sponsorship details (as my friend from America is meeting me up in the us and is covering all cost), utility bills, refusal note, cover letter, hotel reservation, flight tickets. Didn’t include my son’s birth certificate. I know I screwed it up, but I only found this page after I have done my bio. Quite sad.. I didn’t receive the two messages from UKVI, only one. So I just know I have goofed again

Good day everyone, I have been following everything here but I have a question. I did biometric on the 27th July in Abuja for a 10yrs visa renewal. I sent a paid mail yesterday and got this response: I dont understand because I paid for 10years visa and this mail is telling me 3months. Has anyone experienced this before.....

Abuja

leef2022:
Whilst it is not compulsory to book or buy a ticket, doing so would not cause you a refusal.
Your personal circumstances may have done so though. Especially as you note that a friend in the US was sponsoring the trip.

I thought phones or taking pics in there isn't allowed?

Mrmoney90:
Yes it’s not. But I did it stylishly[b][/b]

leef2022:
It is a generic response to your query.

Wait for your passport, you may have been issued 10years or less(5/2yrs or 6months) and may have been refused... In rare cases are 3month visas issued for standard visitor visas.

leef2022:
No sir/ma, you goofed ain't no style there oooo. Kindly take the pic out. Thanks

Mrmoney90:
I wouldn’t get penalized for doing that, but noted and removed accordingly.

I like photos regardless of where I am, it’s nothing to me, unless I am personally told not to do so.

Again Goodluck to all who got their visas. I haven’t received a refusal note yet[b][/b], so I’m just waiting patiently to see as I didn’t get double emails from UKVI

leef2022:
If you haven't picked up your passport yet, then no reasons to write-off your application. Their emails dey hang sometimes....

alert20:
Since he has sent a mail, let him holdon for ukvi to get back to him ✌️✌️

Send a complaint mail and explain your situation, if your financial situation is still stable and good,it could be oversight mistake from the ECO. your UK Visa history qualify you for 10years visa.
