This hasn't happened to me with the UK but with another European Country. I missed their calls and couldn't get back to them... so I went ahead to send an email to the embassy and then they called back.

For the UK... you can either email them (they respond within 24hours) or call them to explain your case. I called UKVI last week when I wanted to cancel my application.

Go to https://ukvi-international.faq-help.com
Select the country you're living in and you will see the email or call option.

Have your GWF number ready and if you're calling, have your ATM card ready as well

Hope this helps.



Thanks,
I have done that, saw the option menu about enquiries, what do I click?

Get a registered audit firm to do the filling for you. If you are in Abuja, I can connect you with a competent one.

Do you want to run a 6months basis account system? Advisable to make it a yearly thing. In your case, you have options of either February to March every year or Jan - Dec. So practically you can't have a year record till say this Oct and you can still operate for next 6months (April 2017) before you must (compulsory) fill your first CITax and eduTax

Ok thanks I'm meeting a consultant today,my office is in Ibadan I'm trying to apply next month for 2yrs

Shoplifting cost retailers £335m a year and customers pay the price, so you can't consider that a little offense and failed to disclose it in your application. Its a criminal offense as well as a breach of immigration law.

Yes you can apply again with a letter of apology but the chances of sources is anybody's guess.

You are also free to try other countries but you still have to disclose your UK visa refusal.

Was there a misrepresentation on the part of the VO? If yes, You should have included the EVIDENCE in the first place rather than saying NO to the question.
For your info, your information as regard to the offence is already shared among the schengen countries whether misrep or not.... undecided so it is pertinent to clear your self with the UK before thinking of embarking on a free money spree on other countries visas.
All the best

C. Is someone other than you paying for this trip?
D. How much will they be paying towards your trip?

Am I supposed to write the same figures in I and my husband's forms? Or, will I split the total money into 2 and enter the figures in the forms?

You don't need a lawyer to contact the embassy for you. Theft is a crime taken seriously in any part of the world. Just to support what Justwise said, you can apply again if only from the last time you submitted your application to the present, your situation must have changed significantly. You have to write a convincing letter on why that information was left out from you application, and if at the time of this crime, you were given any letter, you should present that as well.
Know that this information is shared among EU data base, unless the EU country you want to apply to does not ask you any question relating to crime.

hello everyone, @justwise

please advise.

I went to the UK in 2012 on tier 4 visa. finished but couldn't graduate due to some owed tuition. I then applied for FLR on compassionate grounds to help me finish and continue further. I was refused. I appealed and was still refused. hence I voluntarily returned back nov 2014. almost two years after, I intend going for holiday for 10 days.

my condition now is:

I started work since April 2015, my monthly salary is now 180,000 after tax.

I have a truck that make roughly 80-100k monthly.

I have a partner and we have a daughter together.

I have a landed property too..

documents submitted

employment letter
employement confirmation letter (after 6months) stating salary breakdown.
introduction letter
payslip
tax clearance
my commercial truck papers
Lagos state dues etc of the truck.
land reciept
land agreement
building plan
child birth certificate
shares certificate
bank statement showing #1,290,000
bank introduction letter.


in the salary section, I filled 180k after tax but the ECO calculated as my yearly salary after which I included my offer letter/employment letter stating that I earn 192,000 pre tax. and my payslip says 180k monthly after tax.

I was refused on paragraph 4.2 (a) & (e ).

I can't make that prediction even the ECO can't until you make an application and see how it goes.

Never heard of a non UK citizen or permanent resident applying for rehabilitation.

My brother will be providing accommodation for us
We are planning to stay for 10days and our budget is
Flight- 400k(I,husband and infant)1,377£
Living expenses- 58k (100£ each)
Total- 1,577£
The trip is going to be funded using our joint savings account (600k)which we both pay money into monthly from our salary and also from our joint fixed deposit investment(1million)which will mature before the travel date.Total amount of money available for the trip is 5,508£

My question is,
How do i write the amounts in the application form for each of us since we both own the account? Is it like this
Me: what is the cost to you personally? Answer- 1,577
Hubby-what is the cost to you personally? Answer- 1,577
Me- How much money do you ve for this trip? Answer-5,508£
Hubby-How much money do u ve for this trip? Answer-5,508£
Me- Is anyone other than you paying for this trip? Answer- yes
Hubby- Yes
Me-How much? Answer- will I split the amount into 2 and put 800£
Hubby- 800£

Is that how to put it?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by diamondsare4eva: 8:22pm On Jun 10, 2016
How much do you have in your bank statement? if you have 1m in your fixed deposit and decide to transfer to your savings account will be money lodgement and you have to show proof of the deposit. Why will you spend about 5,508£ on a 10 day trip. The will be hard to sell to the ECO.
Did you say you have 600k in your joint savings account? How much do you and your hubby earn?

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by diamondsare4eva: 11:48pm On Jun 10, 2016
How much do you have in your joint savings account? That is what will be used to demonstrate your financial situation. If you have 1.6m in your savings account, you don't need to withdrawal from the fixed deposit, because that will be lodgement and desperation. The ECO will see it like why will you want to use your life savings for a 10 day vacation. And if you have 600k in the savings that will not be enough for the trip and will be grounds for refusal, you have to show your proof to strenthen your ties when you return back after the vacation. But you can withdraw the fixed and deposit in your savings only if you are not applying now, because you have to run the account for a while so the lodgement will not show when you submit the statement.
If you claim your brother will accommodate make sure to have supporting documents from your brother on his status in the UK.

good morning justwise,

when you say over budgeted what do you mean? am I spending too much or it doesn't commensurate with my earnings?

I earn 180k after tax. also have a delivery truck that gives around 80k monthly.

I intend applying again next week to point out that they made mistake in assessing my application that 180k was monthly as against the yearly the ECO assumed. i also intend to explain that i was wrongly advised by a solicitor I used in the UK who said FLR on compassionate ground was the only way out if I wanted to finish my degree.


any chance scaling through?

There is no mistake there as the Eco stated that it's a monthly pay.

Did submit documents to support your additional earnings?

You can't blame the solicitor because you approached him and it was your decision to take that route.

#180,000 using his exchange rate is not £195. it is £643 monthly. yearly is £7,714. and my expenses is about 2.2time's my monthly take home that is not even including my other earnings

I only submitted my truck registration papers that showed that it was a commercial truck. and I mentioned in the self introduction letter that I make money from it monthly. I didn't put it in the form. can I include it in my new application and show evidence ?

I see the mistake you were referring to but the issue you have here now is that you were refused because of other issue as well which you can't correct.

Submitting truck registration papers alone is not enough because it does not indicate how it brings in money and how much

I have done shoplifting in 2012 dec and was in police station for 3 hours and then was back home without paying any amout/charge.. honestly accepted my mistake and that was the first and last time I did a offence. I am planning to apply for deletion of my record ..got a link where i can apply.

I have had experience of this.
It would seem that you admitted guilt and although there were no charges a record will have been created.
Unfortunately getting this record removed will be very, very, very difficult.

You probably have more chance of being honest and pleading your case before a visa officer that you have of deleting the record.
Besides which the record is now on the visa computer as well.
Try another application and show evidence that you have not committed any crime since your mistake.

I have gone through the link and yes it seems that you are eligible to apply but nobody knows what the process and time will be.

Another thing is this...that record will not be removed from your immigration profile only on police crime database so deleting it now for immigration purposes is too late.
