Thank you for the update the true cost of the expenditure k budgeted according to my calculation is stated below sir

Air ticket Mother + Infant = 265,420
Transport one week travel card = 23,000
Sight seeing = 40,000
Shopping = 100,000
Accomodation Hotel = 150,000
Feeding = 50,000
Total = 620,000

This was the initial budget I have in mind when I submitted but now I am planning on reducing everything to fit in my 2 month salary which is 346,700 dont know how to go about this but it seems weird to me been saving and have the cash available to spend but I just don't know what to do will appreciate your assistance.

Also sir if I click on I the attached what do I fill their if i have shares and landed document.

The focus here is on your salary mainly and that budget is going to blow up almost 4months of your salary.

Share and landed property are not savings, that section is talking about cash savings.

You may try another country for holiday

Good day !!! Please is it better to use a uk address or book a hotel? Plus must the hotel accommodation be paid for ? Thanks a lot

@justwise thank you and I really appreciate.

I am thinking of going back to Paris for 2019 summer since UK have decided to be like this.

But sir the money in my bank account which have even increased from the 1.8m submitted to 2m is my saving and salary account is that not explainable because the money is readily available for me and it was in the bank statement submitted and can the money in the bank statement be indicated as my savings.

Also sir what if my reduced my budget because I just checked online now and even found a cheap ticket for 176k from Los to Gatwick via Turkish airline so with that can i reduce the budget and get a cheap hotel in some dome. Will that help boost my chances.

Thanks so much appreciate.

Yes money in your bank account is your savings and that is what that section is referring to.

Reducing your overall cost will help your application as long as your budget is realistic. If you get a cheaper ticket or hotel then indicate it the way you did here.

So yes you can give it a go or try France as you mentioned before

@Justwise... kindly explain the bolded part.... Are u saying the question on the application form asking if you have savings or investment should be YES becos the money in the account is my savings? Then if i have 1.4 in my account... how much will i have to state as my savings? Thanks

Thanks a lot .. also please I booked my hotel but didn’t pay: used the option of paying at the hotel. Though the booking is confirmed but it also shows in the booking that I chose to pay at the hotel. Does that matter too. Also do you think I need to submit the expired passport with previous issued Uk visa?

justwise:


Get it stamped by your bank though online bank statement is acceptable in the UK but i'm not sure about Nigeria.
