Kazumu: £135.00 is more the price for one night in London! What hotel have you booked for that money? You will be seen as spending most of your savings on one short holiday trip. This looks wrong to VO. you will be rejected. |

Kazumu: Your corporate existence started last year April and 1st accounting year ended March, 2016. You have up to September 2016 to file your tax return before it becomes an offence and you are applying in June, 2016. Therefore you commit no offense for not submitting any TAX receipt nor TCC. However, the ECO would asked (probably rhetorically) why would he want to go on vacation when his company is still grasping the market? If luckily you were asked, you should get a good answer ready. Be smart with it, it may be the turning point once you get your budget perfected AL the best |

Every case is different, no one can specifically tell you the outcome of the decision made, just be hopeful for the best. Share your transcript when you get back your passport so others can learn.

Hello @FrontPageLawyer, @Justwise & Nairaland family; You have been very helpful on this forum. May God Bless you all I have some questions in filling the Uk online application form at (https://www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/) for my trip on a Business visa, in which my company is sponsoring me. 1)There is a place they ask if I have any family in UK? My uncle's wife(who i can call my Aunt) is based in UK with her 2 kids. The husband is a Professor lecturing in Nigeria. He only visit his family on vacation. Question i-Can I just state my Aunt as the family I have or I must also include her kids? Question ii-Also my blood sister & her husband are based in UK. Should I just indicate my sister's name alone or I have to include her husband? 2)There is a part that also ask what is the cost to you personally of your trip in GBP? Since am not paying, I will answer N/A as advised by @FrontPageLawyer However the next question asks for the ....Total money you have for this Trip? My company has budget a max of 8,000USD for my expenses which is more than enough looking at my expenses of about 3,000GBP. I also have over 1m in my personal account. I have over 1m in a co-operative savings with my company welfare unit. I have 800k naira in a Mutual Fund. I have stocks worth over 2m. Please based on the above, how should i answer the question ...what is the total money you have for the trip?.... since am being sponsored but I still have my own money which am not spending for the trip? 3)There is another question that ask..Do you have other income and How much you receive monthly from this? While I have investments in Land, stock & Mutual Fund, the only income I receive now is Dividend from stocks which doesnt come monthly and I cant predict the amount. How do I answer this part since for example i can receive X naira from company A in April last year , Y naira from company B in June last year. But this year company A pays lower that X naira based on performance while company B pays more than Y naira. Though these credits are not so huge. They vary with amounts like 35,000 naira, 800naira, 20,000naira etc Please Nairalanders family, @FrontPageLawyer, @Justwise help as I dont want to fill N/A when i know they will see that there are some credits into my bank statement apart from my monthly salary. Please help |

abeylevels: 1) Mention all family members especially your sister in the UK. It is part of the integrity test designed to assess applicants tendency to be honest, trustworthy, and dependable. Lack of integrity could cause you the visa which is also an immigration offence that could lead to a 10 years ban. 2) Cost to you personally of your trip? N/A. Your company is paying. 3) The total money available for this trip? You have to be realistic with your budget, $8,000.00 in my opinion is rather too much except it includes cost of training which I previously advised be paid before submission to guarantee your reservation for the training. To know the total money available for your trip (Add Hotel+Feeding+Local Transportation+Air plane ticket = ££££) 4) Except you wish to spend your own personally money which is not a crime, you can mention it, otherwise the answer remains N/A since your company is paying for the trip. 5). If you have the last dividend letter, attach it together with all previous once and input the amount in the last dividend letter accordingly; meanwhile you have a chance to explain all you have type here concisely to the ECO about your investment, dividend e.t.c. In my opinion, you're qualified for the visa with all you have mentioned here. You have many of the documents that qualifies for ties. Having said that, there is no guarantee about visas, but the better prepared you are, the better your chance will be to have a visa. Lastly, please ensure you submit your own personal bank statement (salary account) whether your company is paying or not. |
