Guys!


After Schengen Visa rejection, how long before we can re-apply for another one?

You can apply at any moment. However, since your initial application was turned down, you should consider the reasons for the rejection before resubmitting. Make sure you address the reason for the rejection first.
Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by Zoey1: 5:32pm On Oct 17, 2024
Decision time for Belgium can take as much as 3months because the application is actually sent to their country.
And your gf , first timer , Belgium Embassyhuh ONLY GOD can pull that.
You that is a regular traveler, it’s not sure with Belgium.
My opinion, use another consulate.
Desmondola2020:
So guys I have decided I will apply to Belgium since they have appointment date for end of this month and travel date is in Dec. I’m getting married to my gf few days to submitting our application. What is my wife chance of getting the visa ? She’s employed & have a business. Her salary is like N1m. Me on the other hand is a business owner with monthly turnover of 30-60m monthly. I have had a sweden schegen visa, have a valid 5 years USA visa, have a 10yrs Canada visa and have been to uk like 10 times or more. Will my profile help her. She’s 27yrs old and I’m 31.

They don’t like people wasting their slot cause it could have been given to people who really needed it. Trust me forget about trying France again but I doubt if it will change anything from other Schengen cause they use the same data system they can still see your previous history as long it’s same Schengen country
This is not true. I didn't use my first visa, which doesn't affect my second application because it came out positive.

Fascinating . A huge one!

Give us some tips on how to get these type of visas.

Thank you
In my case, I have a masters degree from a university in Paris.
After getting my job, my employer wanted me to reapply for this kind of visa but I had to return home first.

The entire application was taken care of by a French immigration agency hired by my employer. I just went and submitted the documents that they sent me to submit.

About getting a job from Nigeria, depending on your field and skills their are French companies open to hiring foreigners.

I wish you the best.

This was the reason for the rejection

>> The information submitted regarding the justification for the purpose and conditions of the intended stay was not reliable <<

I don't even know what that means or how to address it.

Copy and paste reason they give for all denials.

They just copy and paste same thing for almost everyone

UK and USA do give specific reasons

Good day everyone, please I want to ask, for family of 5 application…does every member need a cover letter or only the parents (dad & mum) or just 1 cover letter is sufficient, also the health insurance will it be joint or individual? Kindly advise please. Want to assist my uncle in applying for his family. Any other info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you 🙏

Technically, I am not sure what others may think, but applying for a family of 5 now isn't the best. Maybe you do for your own uncle "alone" or your uncle , his wife and just one of the kids. However, if you can substantiate reasons to the receiver of your application why they should grant you , you will be lucky. Mind you , these kind of application require alot of paper work.

- Family pics
- proof of enrollment of the kids in school
- A solid bank statement
It cost about 1.2m to book a flight from Lagos to Paris.

So ensure your application is very solid and leave no room for loopholes.

Lastly, there is another crucial document you can add as support document, a recommendation letter from a top person speaking well of your uncle or aunty as the case maybe!

Please house. My appointment date is in two weeks and I want to know how many months back accounts statements will need to be printed out if my workplace wants to sponsor my trip to France. Secondly, is there any need to specify details on how my daily activities will be in Paris during my trip to the consulate?
Thirdly; my personal account balance is yet to hit the target I think it may be considered for the trips, will not stand obviously if a bulk of the money is sent into my account once.
Note: My account has been so active for three months with Total Withdrawals of 6,574,167.32 and Total Lodgement of 4,400,700.00. The close balance is 1M but I intend to make the balance to 7M before the first week of November. For 6 months of my account, my Total Withdrawal is 9,548,996.99 and my Total Lodgement is 8,349,275.00

France : 3 months
I am deeply aware that it is three months' bank statements that are needed to be printed out. It seems you didn’t read my post properly. I was saying that I had a million naira in my account right now and won’t it be obvious if six million nairas was sent into the account by spiting it within three to four days before my submission which is Nov 5?
Thank you for your response. I have contacted my workplace and three months' bank statements are needed. Please; will there be a bank reference attached to the company printed bank statement that I will submit too?

The balance in your account now is too small to even buy ticket

If you also transfer the ₦6m, it would be flagged as depositing large sums in order to trick the ECO.

It's super 🎲 for you both ways

So at this point there is no point of submitting and wasting my documents? I am planning of spiting the funds into multiple inflow transactions to hit up the close balance.

Tidy up the account for the next 6 months and apply then

Drop ₦3m in the account

Then monthly drop ₦500k for the next 6 months, then apply

Make sure balance in the account is time 2.5 of total cost of travel

If you're spending let's say ₦2m on the rip, you balance shoulder be about ₦4m to ₦4.5m

Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by hunee: 11:58pm On Oct 19, 2024
Ayomide, if you want to apply , its fine. Many have received several visas with 400, 500k account balance. That is why i spoke about different people different status. Dave is giving you a vital and technical advise, perfect one .
AKAyomide:
Thank you for the information. I am deeply grateful
I think sometimes or maybe because of the economic situation in Nigeria at the moment, its a bit a tough one with such an amount.
You know ...
Ticket is expensive, accommodation in Paris, all of that has to be put into the box for any sort of visa consideration.
If you, Ayo was a VO too, i am sure you would also be considering those factors before you can grant a visa to an applicant.

So , weigh your options and make a consideration.
there is never a perfect timing for visa applications though, it is just getting things right that matter and hoping for the best.

Salute to the other respondent, Goodluck!

While I acknowledge that expenses in Nigeria are high, the key to obtaining a student visa for France is the full payment of the first-year tuition fees.Observing Canada's recent *balling*. I have recently been engaged by a school in France to recruit students. During my onboarding on the school's platform regarding the application and visa process, I was instructed on how to ensure getting visa for students which is payment for their full tuition fees.
