Hey guys, I have a question about the account I want to submit for my visa application

The only credits in this account in the last six months are my salary paid every month

There is also a credit of 10,000 from my husband, that’s all. We bear the same surname

But there are a lot of debits for my day to day living expenses. ATM withdrawals, fuel purchases at filing stations, restaurants, airtime, data, etc

Is this kind of account clean enough for UK visa application?

In my little experience, i believe this is the best kind of account to use .....it shows constant salary payments and operational expenses...as against a sudden lump sum or account with no activity. Just include your payslips and you should be fine

You don't have to sponsor your father. Let your brother get official invitation letter from his school and his own bank statements and pay slips. That's all he needs to get the visa for father.

Good day everyone. I'm planning to apply for a visiting Visa to the UK.

I'm a salary earner of #120k monthly and my brother who resides in the UK wants me to come visit. He'll sponsor my trip.

He's proposing on funding my account with all the money needed for everything.

Please is this a good idea?
Wont it raise suspicion?

This is something that can only be confirmed by your husband applying. No one here can tell you matter-of-factly.

One thing to note is that while filling the application for any UK Visa, your husband will be asked if he has ever been denied a visa, and why. He will have to declare this refusal and explain that it was because his wife used a fake COS. This will most likely set off alarm bells in the head of any visa officer.

You have established yourself as a deceiver. Whether it was intentional or not does not matter. And your husband, by association, cannot escape that stigma. Even if he was not given a 10-year ban, any subsequent applications will be looked at with a fine-tooth comb. I reckon a visit visa will be the most difficult to get. A study or work visa, which is what you say he's thinking of, might be easier, but he will still be thoroughly screened. That is if he has not been given that 10-year ban, in which case the denial will be automatic.

If you guys are willing to take the financial (and emotional) risk of finding out if that ban is in effect, then you can apply. The way I see it, you don't exactly have much to lose, except adding another refusal to your record. Or another ban, if you choose to deceive again.

Thanks so much for your input With due respect.... Btw you really think we be so stupid to deliberately use fake COS to apply or even upon reapplying... Yes there might be stigma attached to it and I know for sure that any future applications will be scrutinize and another way we can find out is by reapplying again...

No, your brother should not send money to your account. It will be seen as money lodgment, meant to inflate your account balance and make it seem like you have money that you actually don't have. This is the number one red flag in any visa application.

Your brother should send you his bank statement, and you should upload that with your application. He should also send you documents that prove his legal stay in the UK and also the nature of his source(s) of income. You should also attach your own bank statement, along with your employment letters, pay slips, leave letter, et al.

You should note, however, that it is your own circumstances that the visa officer will use to decide whether to grant a visa or not. Having a sponsor is all well and good, but if the visa officer is not convinced that you can afford the trip by yourself, they will probably deny the visa.

If you read my comment and the first thing that jumped at you was that I am judgmental, then I'm afraid you are not ready for the journey you and your husband are planning to embark on. You have to put emotions aside and look at things critically. I already told you that whether it was intentional or not does not matter, and that is a fact.

Another fact is you have a 10-year ban. That's not going to change. What may change, though, is your husband's situation. I have given my opinion on how to go about it. Maybe others can chime in as well.

Your husband can apply for student visa. You cannot join him as a dependant - neither can your children. Essentially, I don't see any advantage in him applying for student visa. I suggest you try another Country. Leave UK for now. The ban you got is going to cause a lot of issues.....

Your brother can sponsor your trip. However it is your personal and economic circumstances that will determine the outcome of the application. I suggest he provides his statement of account - rather than send the money to you. It is not a good idea for him to send the funds to your account as it might appear as "account padding".

Hope this helps.

You need to lower your expectations with this UK matter. The worst has happened, look to other countries. You are speaking of visit visa, that’s a long stretch given the history of their refusal and the other parent- yourself.
Please lower your expectations.

Good evening, please I'm in the same shoes now though I'm applying from outside nigeria. Want to apply for uk visa and my account is not available as i left nigeria last year and I'm not working here but I'm planning on using my husband account details with about 12kusd balance. Can I just submit that my husband's account as the sponsor? Note: my husband has a valid 2 years visa. Thank you

That was what I did in my big sister's case. I wrote in the application that she is traveling together with her husband, and that her husband is the sole sponsor of the vacation trip. The only bank statement used was that of the husband.

Yes, you can use your husband's bank statement. Write in the additional information section that your husband will be the sole sponsor.

Your husband can try for UK student visa. The journey to ILR is long and the outcome is not certain. You are assuming ILR is certain. It is not. Your dependants are not banned - but your ban is likely to affect them. It appears you just want to leave Nigeria by all means possible. Calm down and think this through. Otherwise, you will end up wasting scarce resources and valuable time.

Fill one form for each person. One form per person.

You can use same email address. I did that for years when my children were minors.

You need to book the same date and time for biometrics - for the monther and child.

Sis, maybe God is telling you something.

You have been banned for 10yrs and you think by your hubby going to do his Masters, your ban might be lifted? Unfortunately, it does not work that way.

Were you aware that there was a fraud being done on your behalf?? I wish you could write them within the 28days given to tell your part of the whole saga.


Either you look for another country or stay put in Nigeria which might be favourable for you and yours in the long run.

Your husband going of on his own without a possibility of you joining him for the next 8yrs is not good for you in particular.

A client of mine was banned in 2020 because an agent who used fake bank statements for him and i feel terrible on his behalf.

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by MrMagnetic: 5:37pm On May 11
@GraceofGod100

Sorry about your predicament.

Please, get a lawyer or someone or yourself if you can to write a strong letter of petition and explain everything that happened with screenshots of your communications with the person that sent you fake COS.

Does your husband have Master's degree? If not, I suggest he applies to do Master's in Nigeria. It's just 2 years. When he's done, he can apply for PhD in the UK. He will likely get admission and visa. Then, he can go with the kids.

Then, you can travel to France or Portugal or Finland for study and work.

By the time the 10 years ban is over, you might have a good hold in any of these countries. Your husband might also get a job in the UK. You can then join them.

For meantime, they will be coming to your country of residence or Nigeria for vacation.

Just give UK a break and restrategize.
