@nasire your claims look fake and bogus. Looks like you tried to create a picture of a well established person and then also did 5 million naira credits to back up this your story.. very easy to pick that all of these were done to influence the visa decision. Because after crediting yourself 5million, your profit was only 9k naira… hmmm… I am unable to help when everything looks fictitious. Sorry please others would respond soon.

Princesslaw:
Good day house, please help me out on this. Below is my refusal letter. Please I need your advice. I got a refusal letter yesterday. Thanks

Marketing manager earning 900k and with their exchange rate of 482 to 1 pound this is almost same as here earning over £1800 monthly. Good figure but your profile sounds sketchy and picked up by ECO.
Someone in a low income country as yours earning this high figure would also have a lot going on in their life and with property and assets to show and possibly travel history. Looks like your profile is fake or you have provided insufficient evidence and proof to back up the huge financial picture you are trying to portray. Again this looks made up like the last poster.
It is easy to spot this. If you are for real with this kind of finances, then they must be proved on paper and you won’t be refused again.

Hi Gurus, I need HELP please.

Select a paid service na, I think is around 87k excluding DHL delivery.

Is that the norm? I thought we are not mandated to if ikeja is selected.

Good evening gurus in the house.
I have 2.6m saved in my account for my salary and I wrote on the online application that I intend to use 1m towards my feeding and transport within the UK as I will be staying for 16 days, while my hubby who is my co sponsor will be supporting with £2500 paying for my accommodation and flight fare cos I am going for exams. My hubby stays in Uk but far from my exam place. So on my online form, I wrote 1m from me and £2500 from him. However after drawing the budget, I realized we may not be spending up to that amount.
Feeding and transport would cost me about 320k (£176) while flight and accommodation will cost my hubby about £1,600. Will this affect my application since I already said we were contributing 1m and £2500 for the trip in the online form.

Our bank statements can carry it comfortably and we are each employed so source of income is not a problem.
I am just worried if it will be considered as a discrepancy in a negative light.
Do I need to increase the figures in my budget so it can take up all the money we are intending for it.

Don't worry about it. You will be fine as long as your account statements show that you can afford it.

Gurus in the house, please help me out here. Blow his my refusal letter. Please I need your candy advice because i will be re-applying in 6months time. Thanks


I've refused your application for a vising visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of paragraph.

• You have declared that you are an executive Manger for Multi purpose services earning 600.000NGN(£616)per month, plus additional 3,000.000NGN(£3,081)per year from other sources of which you spend 100,000NGN(£102)per month. You further state that you will travel to the UK for a 13 days holiday at a personal cost of £2000, and that your employer will contribute a further £1,200 towards the visit.

• Whlist, I acknowledge the importance of family visits and am aware that you have stated your Sister resides in the UK and submitted supporting documents in her name. I must take into account your personal circumstances when coming to my decision. Furthermore. I have been unable to establish any previous contact with her/him or establish that you're in fact related as stated

• I am aware that you have provided documents pertaining to your employment, as well a bank statement in your name from First Bank covering the period of (06/02/23 to 07/08/23. However, credit into the account totalled 5.689,777 NGN(£5846) which equals to over 9 times stated salary, entering the account over just a 6 months period. And over the same period the account the account showed a profit of 9,290NGN (£9.29) Neither of these figures relate to the finances stated in your application form. And I have e be unable to verify the source of any of the funds seen entering your accounts. Furthermore, whilst you stated you received additional income from other sources. I been unable to establish where your source of income this income from and how this income is generated.

• In addition, according to your statements in your application form, you clear £770 a month after all expenses. I do not find it credible that with a partner to support in Nigeria, would you now chosen to spend over 3 times this available monthly income and all of your available funds on a 13days visit, nor that your employer would sponsor your holiday, having never previously sought the same sponsor in the 4 years since she has been in the UK

• From the information provided, I have not been able to establish that your current employment or financial circumstances are as stated. How you are supported on a daily basis and how you will finance your visit, nor whether you have family members currently in Nigeria currently in Nigeria. As such I am satisfied that you have provided an accurate portrayal of your current personal circumstances or the circumstances surrounding your visit.

• I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the meet the requirements of paragraph (s) 4.2(a)(c)(e) and V4 .3 (a) of appendix V because am not satisfied that you will leave the UK at the end of the visit are genuinely seeking entry for a purpose that is permitted by the visa routes and that you have sufficient funds to cover all reasonable cost in relation to their visit without working or accessing public funds, including the cost of return or onward journey, any costs relating to dependants and cost of planned activities such as private medical treatment. Furthermore I am not satisfied that your sponsor has a genuine professional or personal relationship with you

Sorry about the refusal.

My thoughts:

1. Why is your employer sponsoring the trip? Is it an official trip? This story is not adding up..

2. Your earnings are all over the place

3. Don't reapply. If you really have the money, visit another Country and then try again next year.

Princesslaw:
Good evening house, please help me out on this. Below is my refusal letter. Please I need your advice. I got a refusal letter yesterday. Thanks

Sorry about the refusal.

Your income is good on paper. But something is not adding up... Even the case worker could tell something is not adding up.

Leave UK for now. Visit another Country so that you can have travel history.

When you are ready to reappy to the UK, let us know. Right now, your chances are quite slim and I don't want you to waste money to reapply.

Hello Good day! my UK 6 months visit visa expired in December. I only used it once for 3 days tourist. Now, i want to apply for 5 years. My passport validity will expire in 2027. If granted, would i be able to use the visa with another renewed passport after 2027?

Thank you

Childofgrace18:


I used pictures of when we started dating, vacations, even when me and my wife dey kiss. U need to see how bad I felt when the sent me the mail, but thank God everything is passing tense.

what else can you suggest one upload as we really do not have a lot of pictures together

AyodejiGREAT:
what else can you suggest one upload as we really do not have a lot of pictures together

Upload the pictures you have, both recent and pass pictures, your traditional or introduction pictures, your court or church marriage pictures, your chats with your wife, both Facebook and WhatsApp chats since you both don't stay together, but you people chat nah, bank transfer receipt you use to send money to your wife and the one your wife use to send money to u, it will show that u both support each other, your utility bills bearing your wife name and your name, tenancy agreement with your both names, booking tickets if you have it, just anything I can lay your hands on that shows you both are still together. You need to proof to them the genuiness of your union because this people na pure werey. Them no even send marriage certificate because it has no way to track the authenticity of it but still upload it too. Good luck my brother.

Dear Gurus in the house,

I have been trying to pay for my UK visiting visa for a time now, but my card keeps getting rejected. I am using Access Bank Visa-Signature card. I am perplexed, Those of you that paid for visa in the last 30 days, kindly point me to the right way. I cannot upload or go for biometrics when I could not even pay.

Thank you all.

If that your card is not dollar card, you can't use it. The CBN changed this rules some years back. Before you can pay, look for someone that has dollar account to help you pay, then you send the money equivalent in naira to the person. Good luck.

Bmuhd4smile:
Hello, what can i state as reason for applying 5 years visit visa. My expired 6 months was for tourism. Can i still repeat tourism or something else since the application now is for long stay.

Thank you

You need to study UK visa rule very well, 5years visiting visa doesn't guarantee you staying for 5years oooo. It means the visa is valid for 5years and you must not stay in the UK for more than 6months or else you have a strong valid reason to do so, for example on health ground, education and others.

For your questions, you don't need to say what u will do for 5years, even if you are spending 1month in the UK after the elapsing of our 6months visa, they will give you either 5 or 10years Visa. Just be genuine and truthful with your information because those guys are trained to detect lies.

giselle237:
no she cannot. It does not work that way.
If the mother is in the picture then UKVI expects that the child can stay back with the mother.
Only court documents stating that father has sole responsibility and sole custody rights of child is all that will be accepted. Anything short of this and mother is not dead, O.Y.O
@neyotee

It must not be only court documents.
I have a family friend who did theirs. The dependent had her first daughter with ex partner. They weren't married.
The man just write consent letter that she's happy to let her daughter migrate with the mum & step dad.
As far the dependent who's the father or mother of the child can proof with birth certificate, photos of the child from birth, attach monthly payments or tuition fees for the child, school fees receipt,child school results etc they will grant his application.

Upload the pictures you have, both Facebook and WhatsApp chats . You need to proof to them the genuiness of your union. Good luck my brother.

Thank you very much.
Do you suggest I send WhatsApp screenshot or export our chat?

I can't retrieve our Facebook chat because she lost her account and our wedding is next weekend.

I just have old pictures of us together and videos + the recent ones.

Thank you very much

If you have old pictures and new pictures of two of you together, that settles it. They just want to be sure that you people aren't doing arrangee marriage just to travel to the UK which they have many cases of marriage fraud.

They don't need videos because their is no channel to upload videos, just screenshot your WhatsApp chats with your wife as many as possible, put them in a PDF format and put the screen shot of the chats too in a PDF format then u are good to go also put the pictures as many as you can both old and new in a PDF file too. But make sure u compress the files online so that it won't be more than 26mb. Good luck bro.

Now I understand. The account officer at Access Bank hoodwinked me out of ignorance, I believe, to subscribe to the Visa Signature Card, that it can be used. I will start looking for a dollar card holder.

Have you heard about the Pay4me app? I came across it on Playstore. Please house, has anyone used it before without stories? The feedback on Playstore is mixed. I will continue to look for a friend with dollar card, but I am still keeping my eyes open

Cashmadam:


Yes.

Thank you.
I was denied in the first attempt... then was granted in second attempt. For this new application, will i still state my first denial even after i was later approved.

Oga don't go waste your money ooooo. Look for someone with dollar card to help you pay. Make sure the person has paid before given the person the naira equivalent or else is someone u know too well. Because if the person pays and u fail to refund him, he can easily apply for refund and get his money back.
