Good day house,

Please I have a lump sum of 10m in my account as a result of land I sold to finance my business visa application… I want to ask if transfer of ownership (stating the amount and date I sold it) is enough to explain the lump sum in my account after stating it in my cover letter that I have a lump sum in my account as a result of sale of land ? Please house any advice@hunee

@onile1975, bros, i have been seeing your comments on these sections. I advise you focus on building your traveling profile first, before pushing your family forward. You as a main applicant can be instrumental later on for your family's application.
Do solo trips to Qatar, South Africa, Road trip to Ghana from Lagos, Get these stamps or even visit the Safaris in Kenya.


Do this before coming to re apply for Schengen.
Alot of things are built up , everyone's case can not be same.
Some apply once for schegen and they get the visa while some apply 4/5/6 times before they get it.
So understand these techniques of visa applications and work with it.

More trips, solid home ties and paperwork can be a breakthrough for a schengen visa in the future.

Goodluck

[quote author=firebreather post=135938629]Hi there,

Let me step in to help a little.

For tour reservations, check the websites of these companies Viator, Get Your Guide.

On their websites, you'll find book now, pay later tours. And for some tours, you have to pay now but make sure those ones are fully refundable.

For hotel reservations, check the websites of Booking.com, Agoda, etc. For hotel, you can filter by pay at the property, or book now pay later.

For travel insurance, I think the best option is still AXA Mansard insurance for Schengen countries. Although, it's relatively expensive but they offer guarantee of refund in case of visa rejection.

For letter of intent (aka cover letter), dig through this thread well, you should see some samples that you can tweak to fit your cousin's plans. Or search online for Schengen visa cover letter samples.

Please how can I contact you please. You have really being a God sent

Hello Gwinz,

I suggest you check the Norway thread on Nairaland. You are more likely to find people who can relate with your experience.

https://www.nairaland.com/260142/nigerians-oslo-norway/154#down

All the best with your appeal!

Hello House.
Happy weekend everyone please I need a swift response as quickly as possible anyone abeg

How safe is it to apply for two Schengen countries (Belgium and France) almost at the same time ( just a month difference)
My cousin applied for Belgium since 22 of May and till now no response. So we are considering of following up her France application appointment since she booked appointments for both countries same day

Does she have her passport?

If yes, she should cancel her application for the Belgian visa.

I don't think she's allowed to apply to two schengen Countries simulataneously.

Perharps others can help

Hello everyone,

Please, I need your advice and guidance.

I want to learn French in France for about a year, and afterward apply for a BSc program there. I’m looking for an affordable (cheap) French language school in France that can help me improve my French and also make it easier to apply for a student visa.

If you know of any good and low-cost schools or have any experience with this process, kindly share with me.
Any additional tips about the visa application and choosing the right school will also be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
