is it a requirement to buy a return ticket for a Visitor Visa?


It is rather an express way to refusal.

Thanks.
Minimum average of 4.5, your minimum for each category is 4.5, another English test that is also accepted is PTE (Pearson English test).
2. You only need your Tuberculosis certificate during visa application, the police clearance as well, but some employer might want to sight them just to be sure you’ve got everything ready before issuing you COS.

Good morning house, please I need someone to assist in answering these questions.
1. What question do they usually ask at Heathrow POE?

Why are you here?
What do you do?
Where are you staying?
What will you be doing during your time here? How do you plan on getting to x (e.g. if you indicated visiting multiple places)?
How long will you be staying?
Do you have a return ticket? If yes, show me?

Do note that it differs but in my experience, these are the usual suspects.


2. I applied for visiting with hotel reservation but I'm staying in a friend place do I still need to book a hotel?

No. I've heard of rare cases where this was a problem but most of the time, it isn't an issue. If you are antsy about it, you could book a one night hostel and then move. A lot of cheap ones (<£15) in London.

3. My going 8s genuine to return back in 3 weeks time what do I expect on arrival?

Complete the health questionnaire on the NCDC travel portal.

4. Do i need COVID 19 jam certificate as wakanow has been bombing with related messages.

No. Not sure why wakanow has refused to update their messaging.

Please 🙏 I need your quick response house 🏠

Hi, I have been able to book an appointment and I guess it’s because I was persistent on the booking page. I would say fill a form on the help page so at least they have you on their system and they might be able to resolve your issue. Tell them the specific date you want to book as well.

Thanks dear. I have gotten an appointment. prime time.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by MayoDebz(f): 9:22pm On Jun 10, 2023
You do not.need to buy a ticket for visit visa application. Just include the price of ticket in calculating your expenses.

I don't wish you I'll but if you don't get the visa, what happens to the ticket?

Also additional documents will include your visa, return ticket, data page, letter of authorization. Also contact your account officer for follow up, because there is usually alot politics around PTA
