You are not an elderly person who they may overlook some things. Go ahead with the 3 months. How much is your salary?

Good day Sir/Madam,

Please if I may ask further, is it a must to use 3/6 months statement or one can use 3,4,5,6 depending on how many months you chose to use with a closing balance of arnd 5M .

Also, for someone earning arnd 800k monthly with disposable income of average of 400/500 monthly depending what's the chance of the person.

thanks in anticipation of your feeedback.

Hello good people in the house jmore, cashmadan and jessille237


1) If a family of three people apply for tourist visa for holiday,is it possible for father to be granted and wife application to be rejected , or vise vasa, especially if the father is the sponsor.

2) What of if any one is rejected will it automatically affect all of them

Yes all will be denied if sponsoring father is denied.

Hi, this is assessed on a case-by-case basis as we have seen on this platform. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, but for first-timers I usually advise providing more documentation, e.g., a six-month bank statement. This gives a clearer picture of your financial position.

If someone has a disposable income of 400k monthly, it can work if they stay with family and have accommodation provided for their UK visit.
They could budget at 2 to 2.5 times their disposable income and show they are mainly paying for flights.
To be safer, consider reducing expenses over the next few months and aim for a disposable income of at least 600k, so you can credibly say you’re paying for flights with about 500 pounds (roughly 1 million naira).
Also answering your question, they will scrutinize how the 5 million was accumulated. Everything is a holistic picture.

If you are male and younger, there are NOW more refusals due to illegals/asylum seekers mostly male so take time to sort out your situation before applying.

Is it u.k that give one week

Hello good people. Well done on the good job.

I want to check my chances of getting approved. I’m applying with my husband; he’s doing 2 years while I’m doing 6 months. It’s his second visa while this is my first.

We are both 9-5 people; with combined monthly earnings of over 5m. He is my sponsor and has provided me a letter of sponsorship with bank statements of over $45k, while I have provided mine with NGN10m and $2.5k We have also provided our marriage certificate even though we don’t bear the same name. We also both have introduction letters from our employers.

Full docs provided by both of us; Letters of intent, Bank statements, marriage certificate, itinerary for flight, hotel booking, LOIs from employers with CAC docs.

Please is this sufficient? Our reason for travel is vacation for 10 days. Thank you.

Declaring such finances translates that you ought to have assets, property, investments etc in your names.
Add those.
Any kids, add those
Marriage certificate is not proof of genuine and subsisting relationship. Add proofs like bank transfers between yourselves, shared utility bills, pictures at different stages of life, children shared, communication etc
Add a cover letter and explain thoroughly also highlighting a travel itinerary. Genuine visitors are expected to know about their trip and more.
Also hopefully your bank statement especially you the first timer is convincing enough as all applicants are expected in their own right to qualify for the visa irrespective of sponsorship.
Fill the form correctly as that’s where the main issues lie.

Thank you soooooo much for your prompt response.
My husband has lands but in his name only. We both have cars and in our individual names, I don’t know if that counts?? In my husband’s statements there’s a lot of records of him sending my varying amounts of money consistently and they reflect in my statement as well. We have both written very explanatory letters for the trip and our relationship and filled he forms well. We have no kids.

For my bank statements, I like to believe it’s okay. I filled in GBP 6000 as what I have saved but I have more which I have shown in the statements.

What more else could we possible add? We will add some pictures of us together.

Hello everyone,
I want to apply for my sister’s visit visa, she has a family back home, her husband and children. She has a savings of more than 2k dollars in her domiciliary account for more than a year now, i also have savings in my pounds account. She has a small business clothing business, she uses one of the bedroom in her house, she sells majorly online on her two instagram accounts and her business is registered with CAC. Her husband works with a government institution, so he can always support her with a leave letter from his office in order to stay with the children and a support letter. I never planned it before, i just felt it would be a good idea for her to come for my court wedding here. I have asked the court and they said i can use her as my second witness and i have a notification for the court wedding. The major issue is that the business account does not match the 2k dollars she has saved. Part of the money was from a land we both sold few years ago. Can she upload her personal account alone with my own payslips and my own account statement?
She plans to stay with me for nine days, and i will take care of her feeding and all. She will just pay for her ticket money.

Also.. so sorry to bother you more.. with the disposbale income of average of 450k.. if accomodation with a friend already in UK is provided(currently studenting in the UK) will it be a nice idea and added advantage or I should just book an apartment and also part of 5 M savings 70% is coming from leave allowance, perfomance pay & quarterly bonus while the 30% is his savings. Hope this will make sense a bit . As you can not be too careful .

Thanks again in anticipation for your feedback.

You are not listening.
The UK is very hostile at this moment. The refusals are alot for 3rd world countries now because the numbers show people are not going back after visiting.
If your circumstances have things to be corrected, do that before applying especially if you have ZERO travel history and you are male and young.
Take a step back. If you don’t visit your friend this month or next month, nothing will change, neither will you die or something . Work on your profile.
If it means reducing your expenses over the next two months to 100k so your disposable income is better looking on your application form, then do that. Good luck

This will only work by a miracle.
They would want to see paper documents of how the 2000usd was accumulated or amassed.
They also want to be sure she will go back.
The negatives to her situation is her little or non existent financial situation. They will assume she will stay back as she has you to fall on and even doing cleaner job at 15 pounds per hour will pay her better than her current job.
The department has changed, the refusals these days from countries like Nigeria show its no longer business as usual.
You can apply and try as long as you are not too bothered about getting refused.
In that way, then fill the application form carefully and provide proof of everything you can find.
Add your payslips and bank statements since you are mentioning that you want to cover feeding as well.

Yes. Just add evidence of her school fees paid and results for the last few terms. Don't forget to add her birth certificate.

Sponsor yourself. Keep it simple. Your husband will also sponsor himself.

Since it is your first time, it is best you prove that you are not dependent on your husband. Your 10M and $2k are more than enough for you to sponsor yourself.

Adults are expected to have enough money for vacation without depending on someone else to foot the bill. It is just less complicated.

Cashmadan thank you and other gurus


If I sponsor my wife and children with my bank account and other documents ,after they have been approved,if I later apply alone for holiday visit, I hope they will not refused me simply because I sponsor my family before.

You may want to have them take the trip, upon successful application of theirs and return first sir, then apply for yourself, that way you have shown Compliance & non-immigration intent, all things being equal, your own subsequent application should be fine.

Why can't you apply as a family?

Cashmadam:
Why can't you apply as a family?

At Cashmadan Thank you


(1) Is applying as family has a great chance of been approved

2). Am just afraid of denial that is why I want wife to apply with her daughter separately, why I also apply a lone ,is like not putting our eggs into one basket. Or what do you think is better

3) Or are they going to no if sponsor apply later when results is out

If your wife applies with your daughter, you will serve as their ties to Nigeria.

Now, when you apply afterwards, they might get suspicious and deny you the visa. We've seen it happen before.

Apply together and hope for the best. That is my honest advise. Perhaps others can help.

They are very very unlikely to be granted a visa.

The Home Office is currently denying many visit visa applications, particularly in cases with multiple prior refusals and from third world nations such as Nigeria.
This individual has 6–7 previous UK refusals for himself and another 2–3 for his wife, and no change in circumstances or travel history, the likelihood of a successful UK visit visa is extremely slim and very low.
There are so many nations in the world and unfortunately they have proven to the ECO that they are very desperate for a UK visa and will not get it at this time.

Also, based on his interactions on this page, it seems he does not fully understand how sensitive visa refusals can be, nor the core criteria of a visiting visa. Same way I could pick this up from a nairaland thread is the same way the ECOs pick this up anytime he applies.
The desperation in his tone is hard to miss. If this were a points-based visa, the considerations would be different; however, the UK visit visa applications focus on factors such as purpose of visit, ties to home country, and credibility of information provided.

None of his interactions here show any of the above.
It’s not as if they are intending to visit family in the UK or are seeking to exercise their family rights.
One family can not expound over 10 visiting visa applications to one country, be refused these 10 times and refuse to sit down to understand why they have not yet qualified for the visa. This does not make any sense.

Coupled with the current anti-immigration climate in the UK, approval would be improbable.

I don’t want to give false hope so I will never do that. If you choose to proceed, please be aware that visa fees that could have been channelled to more pressing issues are STILL non-refundable.

@ iamDozzy,

Thanks for ur quick response,God bless you


Please if ur monthly salary is 900k, then how much is ur monthly expenses?

2) how many pounds did you write in ur application form that you plan to spend for the Trip?

Monthly expense was N450,000

Planned to spend N2.5m for one week

akinsanya005:
Please If I can ask further.. how much did you use as your disposable income.. or you did not touch your salary as it's been paid.

just asking for more comprehension.

Thank You

Disposable income was N450,000

At this point
Who knows if his questions are about his own application or for other people's applications.
That many refusals in less than say 2yrs would be surprising

That guy na agent. He will come back with multiple contradictory scenario based questions. If una too attack am e go change username.

America001:

He is not an agent, as he has not been able to obtain his own visa.
He changes usernames but it’s all his own legitimate refusals and repeated attempts at the UK embassy.

America001:

He's changed a number of times already.

Hopefully this alerts others to stop engaging

I remember 2024 when I came here because of my visit visa, I got it and proceeded to get my fiance visa. I came to the uk and got married. I just got my uk spouse visa for 5 years. I got 5 years because my hubby is in the military. To cashmadam, Giselle and the others, thank you very much. The advice you gave here helped me. Thank you all.

How can I apply for UK visit visa please
