Hi everyone, so I noticed a typo in my cover letter after my biometrics appointment, but not sure if it's minor or serious enough to negatively impact my chances of being granted this visa.

Here's the typo:

"Total Expenses (From December 1st to December 31st) = 934,870.75 Naira

Disposable Income = 2,038,233.50 Naira - 936,870.75 Naira* = 1,103,362.75 Naira"

So basically the asterisked 936,870.75 Naira should have been 934,870.75 Naira instead to accurately reflect expenses.

Please how can VFS be contacted after biometrics before my application is forwarded to UKVI for assessment?

sanyaolurilwan:
And are you sure about this?
Because I know very well that, Canadian visa holders ain't eligible for Saudi Visa on arrival, only UK, USA and Schengen!

Fatliga2025:
Same here, I did biometric on the 9th of January, empty NSF mail 27th January
Nothing till now


Please the gurus on this platform,
How long do I need to wait again after the normal wait time (3 weeks) for visitor visa expired, this is fourth week now, please any idea

Vivianchi98:
i did my biometrics for a dependent visa on 26th of january, i got an email from vfs that it was sent to ukvi on 27th january. I haven’t gotten any email from UKVI to confirm receipt.
1. Is that normal?
2. How long does a dependent visa application take to be approved
3. Has anyone who did their biometrics in Ikeja VFS gotten any response from UKVI

Really? After you used months to craft your cover letter you still made a mistake!! Ah.
I pray they don’t hold on to it.
All the best.

b31164707:
Thank you! Mistakes are bound to happen, no matter how careful one might be. Hoping and praying for a positive outcome regardless. Do you think I should contact UKVI via a paid email to address and correct the minor typo or not really necessary at this point?

Jolene474:
Well I personally think that mistake is minimal and should not carry water when a decision is been made, I’m very certain they might not even notice it, you should know paid mail don’t work that way, you can’t address application when you already submitted.
You should not worry about it at all, keep a positive mind.

Hi all,

I am new here. Please, I want to apply for a visit visa to attend a meeting in the UK on March 26. I have never applied for a UK visa before. Please can you giude me as to how to apply for the visa?

b31164707:
Good afternoon.

Is this going to be an employer-sponsored trip? Why are you attending the meeting? There has to be a clear purpose for attending the meeting, which should be demonstrated by your employer, then attach the following supporting documentation:

Bank statements (at least 3 months)
Pay slips (at least 3 months)
Letter of introduction from your employer/Employment contract
Proof of ties to Nigeria, such as a letter from a family member in Nigeria, or documents showing property ownership/assets (if you own property/land), or/and a letter from your church, etc.
Birth certificate
Invitation letter from the organization/agency hosting the meeting

These are the most important documents you should start collating.

ayo23us:
Thank you for your response.

The meeting is for 3 days and fully sponsored by a UK government agency.

Can you share the links to the visa application pages? Also, can the visa be approved within 15 days?

Thank you for your help.

Hi Everyone

Please I need HELPPP!!!
My husband and I has been issued a UK 6 months visa and we intend to travel next week with our 1 year daughter for one month holiday.

Our 1 year old daughter holds a Canadian passport (visa free to UK) so she didn’t apply for visa with us. I am wondering if there is any document or any application that will be required of her. I am asking because I don’t want a situation that will lead to her being refused boarding at the airport.

Thanks for your suggestions

Hi all. Please I have been checking my application online and I can see these in the track application and track passport.
Does anyone know what it means.

The decision gotten from UKVI is not ticked

Arry110:
good day everyone, please I wanted to find out if paying low taxes would affect me in Uk visa applications
I’m self employed, I own a gadget store and I pay myself 2m monthly for a year now, when inquired about how much my tax should be @davodyguy said it’ll be nothing less than 1m (but honestly i don’t want spend that much paying tax)
Will paying an amount like 300k work without issues?

Ukvi will not deny you and state the reason is because you are paying insufficient ties to Inland Revenue of Nigeria, that’s not their business. Try and work on your ties to Nigeria and close ALL possible loopholes for a denial.
