Can he explain origin of deposits

What's your relationship with sponsor?

CornOak:
1. In-flight entertainment – No. The screens didn't work.

2. Staff and service were decent.

3. It was a Boeing 777-300 (5N-BWI)

davodyguy:
They have been called out several times on this, but they have refused to change.

Some people would say we should be patriotic. Patriotism to some people is when you see Tinubu implementing bad policies and you must refuse to call him out.

Patriotism is not calling Air Peace out to fix screen that they have refused to do since March, 2024 when they UK direct flight resumed.

Like poor electricity, bad roads etc, Air Peace is showing us they can't manage infrastructure.

Pathetic that I have booked already and I know they would never refund me

Depending on when you plan to travel, the screen issue might have been fixed. Perhaps, you could be lucky to have a seat with a working screen.

Are you flying on the 777-300?

@giselle and others

Good evening , I think I asked this a while ago but want to ask again as I see different opinions and things may have changed


For a case where I’m fully sponsoring a parent that saves most of their money in money market fund , is it okay if they just attach the statement of the money market fund in addition to their regular bank account ? The regular bank account will only have maybe 2 or 3 million naira balance with regular deposits but the money market fund is much more . Or do they need to transfer the money market fund to their regular account ?

Good day Gurus,

I need your inputs please.

My wife and daughter applied for UK tourist visa this January but was denied and we were told we cant appeal the decision. I chose to sponsor their trip with my bank statements showing (Salary account: N1,500,000 and savings account $5,000) I earn roughly 1m monthly and have my other funds from my Mother's real estate investments.

Reason for Refusal:
1. Address on my bank account is not the same as my current residential address - that is a new one... It should not be a big deal
2. The visa officer queried why my wife and daughter didn't apply with me when I did mine last year December and why I chose not to travel with them this year since my visa is still valid. - When they want to refuse an application, they will look for all sorts of funny reasons

Now, I want to her to reapply and we have also updated the addresses on our bank accounts. I have also decided to say I will be following them this time around.

Dilemma: My wife earns N220k a monthly but currently has only N5,503 in her account. Does her bank balance matters since I will be the one sponsoring their trip - It matters a lot! In fact, it will most likely cause an issue
If I decide to fund her account to show some reasonable figures, hope it won't be flagged? - Red flag. Account padding

Note: last application that was denied, she had less than N100k in her account but was not part of the reasons for refusal but my worry is that these guys can be funny at times. - You are right. They are very funny and will look for another loophole. Abort mission. Your wife needs to build up some savings over time. I'm not sure how much she can build up from her salary..

What do you advise please?

Let me stop here. I know there's so much poverty in the land and it's has actually affected some people's mentality. However, it's not everyone that's not doing well. Many people are doing legitimate things and are doing well.

I don't know you and I really don't want to.

But be careful of saying nonsense everywhere you go, so you can make it in life

I saw your post on this thread, looking to buy a used UK phone for ₦25,000 and then realised why it's difficult for you to understand that some people are really doing very very well legitimately.

What bank statement did u use. Was ur house address on ur bank statement or the visa officer called ur bank to know the address registered on ur bank account. I know some bank statement carries customer home address and some do not. Which one is ur case.

Just asking for knowledge sake

maziemeka2024:
If you have addressed all the reasons they gave for refusal, you don't need to claim you will travel with them unless there is more money available.

Remember that if you claim you are going with them, the your own cost will be factored into the total available funds.

Also check the total amount you have available, ensure that it can comfortably take care of flight, accommodation, feeding and enough funds left when they return.

Not following them was one of the reasons the VO gave as his/her reasons for refusing the visa. Secondly was why my wife and daughter didn't apply same time I did last December. Very anyhow people.
I am also very much aware of the cost implications of following them.

Thanks for your kind words.
My wife mum is willing to come as mine has several commitments back home . The issue is proofing home ties as she is full-time house wife so I'm worried about her financial circumstance regards the visa application.

Hello @davodyguy and everyone in the house. I have been reading this trend and all the advice. To be honest I am learning a lot. Thank you guys.
Please I have a question concerning this statement of account. I would love to apply for a UK visit visa around ending of this year 2025. That is when I will finally return to Nigeria.
But at the moment, I am not in Nigeria, I live in a different country. I work, but not official job. So I am paid my salary at hand. Which is upto 1 million naira if exchanged. I do save about 70% as salary income after expenses.
So my question is as someone who is returning to Nigeria to apply for this visa. How do I go about with the bank statement that will be presented? I want to apply for the visa same month or the next month I will be returning. Definitely at the moment, there is no means to convince the UK officer on how I receive my salary. Because I received it at hand. And if I am coming back, I will have to withdraw all my savings, exchange them to dollar and come back. So I don't think my current bank account will be necessary to present since I will be leaving the country final. So could you guys kindly advice me on how to go about the bank statement. How do I build this bank statement. I have both dollar and naira account back in Nigeria, but can't make transaction with them or send money to it back here. If I come back, take all the money and put either in my dollar account or naira account, then apply for the visa. Do you think it can be granted?
