Question1:
Hello my people,

My girlfriend has just been refused UK Tourist Visitor Visa for 7 days holiday (see refusal letter attached). She's currently a student at the Nigerian Law School, Lagos Campus, and employed as a remote Digital Marketer with a company in the US. She has worked with this company since July 2023 and presently earn $1,782 every six weeks. The purpose of her trip is for a short holiday in London, to relax and experience the city’s cultural and historical attractions.

Kindly advise based on the refusal letter. In addition, what are her chances of approval if she re-applies and address the refusal reason.

Just to add, the missing salary mentioned in the refusal was, in fact paid the first week of the following month(April) and it appears the VO skipped that entry in her bank statement.
this applicant have a high chances of getting visa when she re apply

Charmhk:
Please I got my visa and I submitted 12th September and got it 22nd September. But the visa start date is 18th October.. Is that a mistake? All my visa’s have always been on the issued date. I already booked a ticket for next week.. is there anything I can do Please

Opeyemi007:
Check your travel dates on your visa application form.

Hi,
Please I need help. My brother and his family are in UK and I just finish my NYSC but I want to be invited for some months, I need advice on documents I need to prepare and to convince them that I have home tie. I was told the older people have high chances than young girl like me.
Any advice is appreciated
Thank you

jmoore:
It should be okay.

But you have to be careful to avoid mistakes. Cos there will be more scrutiny for people like you. They look out for the slightest mistake to deny people Visa

giselle237:
You can not be actively working and be away for some months as you state. This is a red flag and definitely you won’t get a visa with this information inputted on a UK visa form.
Pls try and read this thread. It would help you to ask specific questions so we knw where to help.

Theta1:
Thank you for your response. I worked for my uncle and he can give me time as my leave to go. I have been following the thread and I never see any situation like my own, that is why I posted to seek advice, I just need documentation to be in place for my visa to be approved.
Thanks once again

giselle237:
Your reason is not acceptable to a UK Eco. Kindly do not write this on your form.
Re documentation- read the thread, there are hundreds of documents shared from people’s experiences.

Gurus in the house, please assist.
I have a remote job and i get paid directly to my dorm account, in light of the tax restructure, the advice is to register and use my company account as companies have a N50m non-taxable annual threshold, my question is, would this affect my application as my contract letter and payslips are in my name? i cant meet the company to draft a new contract in my company's name, would this be an issue? or would a cover letter be sufficient to explain it?

Thanks in advance

Please how does one contact UKVI of an application has taken more than 15 working days? This is the 16th working day and nothing
Weirdest thing, just got a mail about it just as I sent this message in
Fingers crossed it is positive. Do they usually send a mail first if it is negative . I just received one that said a decision has been received and passport will be sent if courier service had been booked

Manlikechims:
That’s great! I think they normally send a refusal mail first. So I believe it’s good news.
Now I know some of us that ours are taking longer that 7 days aren’t alone.
Are you self employed? Trying to understand your position

HaneefahRN:
Thank you, fingers crossed. Yours will come soon too
No employed but fully sponsored

Manlikechims:
Fab.. is this your first UK visa?

In my application it was stated that I earn 300k per month that I make 3600000, additional income I wrote that I make 24000000 per year also rent of 2000000 is paid into my account monthly I submitted my house receipt, house documents. I submitted my Cac documents and as of today my Cac is active but they wrote inactive I wrote that I spend 380000 monthly but they wrote 150k I’m so confused and heartbroken with this decision don’t know what to do next please I need your advice.

Promise61:
any advice on what to do.

Manlikechims:
Have you had a second look at your form?
What I see in the letter is 300,000 per annum.
It is possible you may have missed out the additional zero.
- it’s always best to submit a status update instead of the actual CAC certificate. The status update shows company is active and all details of the company.
- for multiple funds that come into your personal account which has been termed as unknown sources, you could explain the funds. On my form it’s written 3600000 annually no zero is missing there, the multiple funds were explained on a separate paper
