God bless you Boss,

All these happened coz dis is my very first time of applying for a visa.

God knows my intentions are good and true, as I do not intend to work or over stay cos I am going currently in 300level to resume level 400 by september dis year, my University was able to provide me with an introductory level vouching that am going to return to complete my studies.

The most interesting thing of summer school is that, it is not necessary mean you should study a course related to ur field. its just an avenue to explore and earn new and more knowledge. As a matter of fact, Kings college advice that intending summer school participant are supposed to choose a course different form the status quo.

I just want to tackle all the deficiencies figured out by D ECO

***In my new application I actually intend to provide valid reasons and supporting evidences in in form of letter like "WHY I CHOOSE TO STUDY INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WTH MY COURSE ALSO ITS BENEFITS"

****Secondly, I want to undestand what u mean by legal evidences.. I have decided to add many group photographs of myself and my guardians, Document showing they've been paying my school fee e,g school fees receipt. Also, their tax certificate, their industry document and their source of fund ..Infact my guardians are Venerables in the Anglican church YABA lagos...

GOD BLESS YOU

imperialebony:
I did not respond to your earlier post because Justwise had said it all. Now that you have changed your course of study to International Business , in my opinion it's much better than the Greek stuff(LOL). The problem I have on this is the timing. June starts next week and the embassy could be busier from next week( info from a reliable source today). You may just mail your school to postpone the course, since you have already paid. This will also give you enough time to prepare for your next application with a considerable amount on your guardian's account to boost your chance. Anytime you wish to reapply, your guardians would need to produce legal documents to prove they're your legal guardians...pls seek a lawyer's advice on this.

I will advice you to stick with your previous program. There is nothing wrong in trying to take a summer class outside of your program, we have American's that come to Nigeria for a semester to study a foreign language (Yoruba, igbo etc). You know why you chose a study abroad program in Greek language, just explain that in writing to the ECO. Get an evidence from your sponsor and if you have records of all their transactions include in your next application. Just be truthful in your application, am sure you will be fine if your intentions are genuine.

Amen, and you too. What: I meant by legal document is more or less an attestation and could begin with....This is to attest to(or certify that), bla,bla,bla. Get a lawyer to do this. They understand better.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by layibos: 10:53pm On May 24, 2016
Hi house,Please i need clarification..I am self employed and a friend in the UK got a contract with some universities in UK to market some of their programmes here for Nigerians...I was approached to help in and which i did..The programme will be taking place in UK..i was chosen to represent the company from Nigeria.
i have a letter from the university and a contract letter from my friends company in UK for my services as a contract staff for a duration of one year and also i will be partaking in the programme in the university because the programme is also in my line..the university is paying for my tuition,accommodation for the duration of the programme.
my question is what documents do i need to apply for a UK visa.
how much do i need to have in my account
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Question1: 11:02pm On May 24, 2016
I really appreciate your time and effort.

But its quite unfortunate that i was pushed to change my course to International business, but at first i didnt intend to study a very tedious course (My current course economics is not even easy its too mathematical so i chose a language course at first). However, I would add a supporting letter stating the reason I chose GREEK LANGUAGE in my earlier application, i would as well quote kings college. I will also provide reasons for choosing my new course, international business, its benefits to me, and my future.

Friend, could u pls think up more document i could provide to attest my legal guardianship apart from photo and evidence of fee transactions.

Lastly, After i have blocked all the loopholes with more than enough documents, do u advice me to apply by early JUNE coz d program starts JUNE 27, and ends july15

Thanks a million

@justwise
I just received a refusal of visa on the grounds stated below :
1. You have stated on your application that you are single and are employed as a sales engineer and earn N40,000 (£137.82) per month. As evidence of this you provides an employment letter
2. Although you state your trip to the United Kingdom will be financially supported by your parents, I have to take into consideration your personal and financial circumstances in Nigeria. you have not provided evidence of income. Therefore I am not satisfied as to your own personal and financial circumstances in Nigeria

What can I do? And what are my chances is I include evidence of landed property

The whole thing does not add up, you are still a student but you want to travel to London for a summer course which is even lower than the level you are studying now?

I'm not going to discourage but if i were you i will take a step back and think this through carefully before reapplying.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by diamondsare4eva: 11:17pm On May 24, 2016
Now the case is showing some signs of desperation. What the ECO said is simple, why would you want to study Greek language in the UK? I believe you have a reason why you paid that much for a language that you can easily study online using Rosetta stone. Changing your program at this time will not really help your case. State why you want to study a foreign language in the UK and how that will help you in your academic pursuit.
If your sponsor has been the one taking care of you, show them proof of your relationship with him/her. Provide records of their financial transactions not just bank statement, if they are business people, documents of business registration, what they do and how they generate money for their business. Know that its not just providing documents because they know that documents in Nigeria is readily available.

My worry is of what relevance is Greek language to Nigeria? Even if u want to go into Academics,maybe to lecture Economics,which group of persons learn with greek in Nigeria. To me its not just relevant. Ok why UK when u could have possibly learnt greek from Greece. Why not go to greece and learn greek?

I don't know what to do. But I believe If i'm able to state reasons for all my actions in written form, I will be vindicated.

Since I have changed to international business (Coz the ECO also stated that any future application will be considered on there individual merit and my application is likely to be refused UNLESS the circumstances of my application have change) How do you see it if i add reasons why I chose Greek intially to my new application based on the fact that its just a 3weeks summer class and we've been advised to choose a course outside of our field. And I then add reasons for why I have chosen International business... What do you think about that?

Pls i want ur opinion

Oga this whole thing reeks of desperation and hysteria. I really think you should take a step back from all this and analyse it dispassionately. Yes there is something inherently humiliating about the Visa process but you need to chill out mehn. If I were you I will take a break from all this, get my 'greek' money back and concentrate on graduating with an excellent CGPA afterwards I can always apply for grad studies in places better than the UK

Bro, you just hit the nail on the head. The dude should be patient and simply have a good GPA in his undergraduate and apply to US. Whats the need going for a 3month course that is not relevant to your field then come back and end up not using it. The ECOs are well trained and they can detect where you possibly lie or seem desperate. Well if he wants to try,no problem but he should not cause a situation where he will be put on red flag.

Hi Justwise,

We confirmed from CAC that she's the owner of the Business name.
CAC has issued us a letter for UKVI stating she owns the business name.
CAC didn't acknowledge the error came from their incompetent and Lazy staffs because my mum included the refusal letter when she went to CAC to enquire about her Business Name. CAC reckons UKVI never asked them confirmation.

I just tire for Nigeria jare... too much wahala.


justwise:


I'm not saying you should not reapply but you need to be absolutely sure that the document your lawyer CAC is genuine.

If at all the embassy contacted them concerning the business then they must have had a reasonable doubt about it.

Take it easy bro. What if the ECO didn't call as insinuated? Would u have been tired of UK too much wahala and then decided your mum should stay back?
If the ECO truly did make that call, be sure the person at the CAC end wouldn't have been naive and dam the consequences and the implications (of such negative/laziness confirmation of Wat is not) to the biz owner and just decided to say contrary to the truth.
The Nigeria you are tired of has being giving you advices, gave you all the letters needed for your mum to get off the hook of this ten years ban......

1. Everyone is entitled to their opinion

I have my reasons for saying "I just tire for Nigeria jare... too much wahala."
Imagine.. To get a letter confirming the owner of the Business Name is officially N10000
Guess How much I paid N40,000. Why is that?
After paying N5000 extra for courier to bring the letter from Lagos... I still had to send Courier plus to get the letter for her from here cos they said their own courier will take about a week.
Won't you be tired oga nairacountry?
The official cost of obtaining a passport is N12000 or so... yet Nigerians have to pay N28,000
Wont be tired of such nation.
Abeg, I'm not here to lament about Nigeria cos If I start to talk ehn... ground go ground

Fact is that .. we dont know where the error came from? and its tiring and exhausting.

My friend, please tell mama to avoid uk, at least for now. They're pretty mad with visa now. UK ko rogbo rara bayii. They are mad with their current dwindling economy. The move by Nigerian government and others are making to repatriate the huge stolen funds in their care, which they always trade with, will worsen their economic situation soon. When most of the EU countries were busy taking refugees, UK refused because they're sick economically. They even threatened to bark out of the EU at some point because others accused them for refusing refugees(though uk has deliberately chosen to be a nominal member all along). The fact remains that, they now look for irrelevant stuffs to refuse people visa now, especially those applying from developing countries like Nigeria. Today, they deported more Nigerians. In the next 10 years, the whole world will pity UK because they only live make-belief lives. They're finished! For details of about the Nigerians deported today, please click this link http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/05/40-nigerians-deported-uk-australia-immigration-offences. Or copy it and paste on your browser. I have a cousin whose papers were overdue for renewal but they refused to renew it. I also know a couple of other guys like that in same situation. This wasn't the case the past. You could even walk to central London like a queen without a paper before and nobody would challenge you. Now, our people can't try it. They always hide in the toilet once they visit their offices for random search of illegal residents working in their country. Once they get them, it's muritala straight!. What more can I say, I used to have a neighbour who once travelled to the uk as a student and after graduation, no job. He embarked on the second master's degree, still no job upon completion. Now, he's back home, hustling. He's getting better now as he's doing his own business...not many nigerians in same situation would take such a wise but risky decision. I was at TLS sometimes to submit my documents. The last time I ever applied was in 2013 and it was at VFS oregun then. I wanted to renew, there I spotted 1 pretty lady who used to be my auntie's neighbour in the uk. She schooled in the uk but no job so she came back home. She called me leta as we exchanged numbers. When I heard her story, I pitied her. She actually got the TLS job from the UK. They're not paying her much though. She can still make do because she's not going to pay unnecessary taxes at home. Please my friend, I'd advise you just tell your mum to take it easy for now. Tell her to keep calm. She can reapply after six months. She should buttress her claims with all the letters written by the relevant agencies that confirm she's the rightful owner of those documents they claimed were fake. And to all potential students here in my opinion, if you can find your way into any of the Canadian universities, you stand a brighter chance of getting a good job after you finish. But if you must apply to uk, pls I'm not discouraging you, neither am I saying you won't get your visa...and to potential visitors, if you don't have compelling reasons to visit uk,don't waste your money. you may try Yankee. It's easier to get their visa now, unlike before. Their visit visa B1/B2 is now 2 years multiple entry...unlike when I used to apply in early 2000s and they would issue 3 months single entry. I was issued 3 months single entry visa twice, the first was on a virgin passport...my first visa f, in October 2004. And to those seeking a vacation or honeymoon, dubai is a place to be. They don't refuse visa and you'll enjoy your hard-earned money to the fullest .I hope my long explanation and advice will lay this prolonged matter to rest. Cheers

So I'm assuming nothing can be done to get the visa due to what I currently earn even if I have a letter of sponsorship from my parents and a letter of invitation from the family I'm going to visit.

You know exactly what the problem is. Your earning is your strongest tie to Nigeria.

stocks/bonds may help if you liquidate them and turn them to cash in hand.

The report I'm getting from those who have applied recently in this forum are not palatable...including those who met all the requirements. That's not to say people should stop applying. I never discouraged anybody but only advised them...those instances mentioned in my post are real and verifiable. My people are all over there.

They met all requirements by whose standard? Yours?

Your statement about the UK economy and the refuges issue couldn't be more inaccurate.

Hello house, and a big thumb up to the gurus in the house. Can someone recommend a cheaper flight to the UK for end of June. BA & Virgin no longer look attractive cost-wise (except you are a politician of course) and the review on Arik hasn't been quite impressive. Thanks

@ justwise, I've been following some people's post here very closely and I'm so sure you too have been replying them when they sought your advice, up to the last guy who said his mum was refused on the grounds that the ECO said the cert of Inc she submitted was fake. I advised the poor guy, not even knowing he had done the affidavits, even paid hugely to CAC before he could get a confirmation letter from them addressed to the eco...that the cert of Inc was not fake, as the ECO claimed...so, what would you say of that? I was moved by the plight of that guy just to ensure justice prevails. Obviously, they just used an excuse of fake cert of Inc to refuse her. The guy also confirmed to you in one of his replies that CAC said no embassy ever contacted them, contrary to the ECO's claim that they contacted CAC...did the woman not meet requirement? Please tell me because that's the reason she was refused and she had good travel history, according to her son who had been seeking people's advise here for days. if you're still in doubt of what I said about UK, read this http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/may/25/vote-to-leave-eu-will-condemn-britain-to-irrelevance-say-historians. And if still in further doubt, click here http://www.theweek.co.uk/eu-referendum. I hate it when somebody would just wake up and tell me I'm wrong, without putting my hypothesis to test first. Do a research before you attack me next time bro. It's not fair. We're all here to learn and I do believe people also need our advice based on our wealth of experience too .

Try Air Maroc or Ethiopian. They are very fair in fares and passenger treats.

Seems most countries now including South Africa are not too keen on giving Nigerians visa.

Too bad for people trying so hard to get out or simply go on vacation.

Dude you are just make allegations on something we know very little about, the ECO might have carried out their own investigation about the business before stating that the business is not hers. We don't know the whole story neither do we know what she submitted but you keep going on about how they refuse people visa falsely.

The U.K. Referendum of EU was not because they were asked to take some refugees as you falsely stated before. The referendum issue was an election promise far before the refugees crisis.

The U.K. Economy is not in crisis again as you wrongly pointed out.

Nobody is attacking you but avoid misleading people even when the fact is everywhere.

Do you really blame those countries knowing what Nigerians get up to?
