Not having a job could be an issue. Never underestimate the UKVI people. Although your application will be considered under EU laws, the ECO may likely go outside EU laws to apply UK immigration law and lack of financial home tie. Anyway just be honest and be hopeful. So filled as folllows
1. Nill
2. Nill
3. Entered the amount that your husband will provide for the entire trip. This should include tickets for two/shoping allowance etc
4. Enter the cost of your own ticket
5. Nill since you will be staying with him
6. Enter nil. your husband is expected to take care of your living expenses
7. Enter amount as in #2

Ensure that he sent the entire money to you and is reflected in your bank account. Most important include a detail cover letter to explain your financial circumstances to ECO.


@ekpotek please who's address should I fill on the form below. My address or my husband's address?

can he present old 3months and the new 3months?
Yes he's desperate,



Yes he can, as long as he can show substantial amount of money in his account which could imply savings from his salary. but do note that, UKVI requires atleast 6 months payslips.

Good day house. For a tier 5 temporary(religious) worker visa. CoS was issued at £10,000 per annum. Maintenance was also certified on the CoS. Entry clearance was refused because the hourly rate was £5.12 per hour which the ECO said was below the minimum wage. Minimum wage is £7.50.
The ECO after that said the CoS has been used. He also stated that there no maintenance because there is no valid CoS.
His comments on the general grounds for refusal - not applicable. What does this imply for the general grounds?
Advice needed people. Thanks.


I think it is very clear, following the above refusal grounds that your COS is invalid as it has been used (either its been issued to someone else who has used it to get his visa or if you are the one trying to use same COS, it is invalid as it can only be used once) hence, you can't have maintenance.
As for the minimum wage, it is £7.50 and You can't be paid anything lower than that as £10,000 annual pay is quite low and cannot amount to that. Ask the church sponsoring you, to atleast state the minimum wage in your New COS so that can be cleared.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Dyindahouse: 1:45pm On Nov 06, 2017
Please advice on the comments.

Please advice on the comments.

Tell your sponsor to issue you another COS and update your hourly pay to £7.50 at least.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Dyindahouse: 5:49pm On Nov 06, 2017
Thanks.
It is obvious they did not assess the genuineness of the application. Would this be because the CoS is already invalid?
The comments on the general grounds for refusal says "not applicable." Would this mean it was assessed?

Good morning all,

I would like to apply for a 6 month visiting visa for myself and son.

I earn N134K monthly after tax and other deductions. I also do some one -off side business by the way which brings more money compared to my fixed job. I have a balance of over N3M in my account at the moment. What is the best way to explain the large deposits from my side business?
Also I need clarity on how to fill my 7 year old son visa application form. He has a bank account. Should I attach his account statement or mine for his application?

I await your valuable response.

If you have not yet paid. You can delete the application and start over. If you have made payment, point out the mistake with its correction in a cover note and submit along with other documents during biometric. That particular question is directed to you and not the EEA national. At the beginning of the application form there are specific questions that ask about where you will stay in the UK and contact details of your Spouse

I went back to delete it but the delete option is no longer there. Should I leave that one and create a new account to fill another application?

Nothing to do on your part as a submitted application with Biometrics can not be amended. It only implies your application has not been possible to attract a soon enough decision; so it may take a lot longer than the published timelines to make a decision.

This is probably because you have submitted the form. Sure you can start another one!

Hi all,

My husband had a missed call and a voicemail left about calling back on behalf of the entry officer today, whilst at work on his mobile. It’s regarding my brothers visit visa, he’s a student, hubby and I are both sponsoring his trip.

Has anyone had an experience of them actually calling back? I’ld hate for them to deny him because they couldn’t contact hubby, surprised they didn’t call me or hubby’s work number which we provided on the application. Is there anyway we could call them if they don’t call again soon. It’s only been a week since he submitted the application, so don’t know whether it’s good or bad that they are being quick in dealing with it.

Many thanks
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by bambash(m): 12:45pm On Nov 09, 2017
Good afternoon House,

Its a great thing going on here and I pray I will be able to benefit from the wealth of experience that is being show cased.

I hold a British Passport but I reside and work here in Naija. I have a wife and 3 kids. The kids of course are also British citizens but wifey isnt.

2 of the kids are presently schooling in the UK while living with my brother (this is known to the UK Govt).

Now my question is this, whats the best way to apply for a visa for my wife so she can go visiting with our last born as often as possible.

She applied for a visa some time back but was refused on the grounds of insufficient information about what she was going to do and her finances. At that time the kids were all here in naija though. I would like to avoid a situation where by the British Authorities will think she will arrive and stay put because she has kids that are citizens. That is the last thing on our mind because we intend to get wifey a resettlement visa when I relocate.
I cant wait to read all the advice that will be thrown at me. Many thanks

Hello, the same thing happened to me last Tuesday. They called and left a voice message and called me back the next morning.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Nobody: 1:03pm On Nov 09, 2017
Hi all,

Just an update, they called back this morning just to more or less confirm everything in the application, so just a waiting game now, fingers crossed it's not a long wait.
