That's about 20K a month plus your salary = 70K

Your budget of £700 is about N327,711, so you are planning to spend that amount in 8days while it takes you little above 12months to earn that. Even if you are traveling to witness the birth of Jesus in the U.K. Your chances of visa refusal is higher.

Get your payslips to indicate the inflows and also get your letter of employment, introduction letter from your company as well
Innopre983:
Good afternoon all the gurus in this forum. Please, my salary is usually transferred into my account every month but it's not usually tagged 'SALARY'. The money is usually transferred from the company account into our account. Please, can I use such account as proof of salary account? No other money comes into that account except my salary. Thanks

Ure uncle can't sponsor you for ure msc in UK. Its either ure parent or urself if ure working. Betterstill ask ure uncle to transfer the fund into ure acct.

That makes your tie to Nigeria even weaker because you are not capable of sponsoring yourself.

please is it possible for a first time traveler to be issued visa. Earning 150k monthly , savings of about 1.1 in mutual funds. Budget for trip is 400k

Have you checked your junk mail ? Contact them if you haven't seen any and also printout your application form to take long on Monday. If the security refused to let you in you show them evidence of application
yes I have checked my junk mail. I have search for how to contact to no avail. The contact us on that website says it will take 3working days for them to reapond

This won't work as the cost of your trip is more than 2 times what your earn in a month. If we are to look at your monthly disposable income, that is, what is left from your salary after monthly expenses, the cost of the trip which is 400K is also more than 2 times your monthly disposable income. You may need to wait till you earn more. Or better still, reduce the number of days you intend to spend in the UK if you don't have anyone to send you invitation so as to reduce cost. @Justwise and other gurus in the house, please confirm my assertion.

Good day my brother. Thanks for the job ur doing. I downloaded the application form today.
I work with a financial institution with income of 117k monthly. Annual of 1.9m. (As stated in the embassy reference letter sent to me from d office) including other incentives like upfront, 13th month n all dat. I also have a registered company as side business which i make up to 100k monthly.So let's just put it I make 200k monthly.

So in d form they asked ' what is my total monthly income from all sources.
I have 1.2m in my salary account as savings, 250k in another account n 300k in my business account. ( I have products in my show glass worth like a million) my Biz offers product sales n services.

U suggested I submit my cac certificate n bank statement to support my documents. I haven't paid any tax anyway so no tax clearance

I have some shares certificates I will submit as well alongside my car documents

Q1: what is my total monthly income from all sources
( 117k basic salary or 200k both basic n Biz )
Q2: what money is available for ur trip. I intend to spend
Ans for a 7days trip
£800 that's N380k( tryna work around 2.5 times my monthly income, since u advised that spending more than 2 months salary is a red flag )

Ticket 210k £453
Accommodation hostel 60k £127
Feeding 30k £50
Shopping n sightseeing 80k £170
Total 380k £800


Q3. Have u ever been refused visa for any country
Ans : yes USA 2017 but I can't remember the reason in that blue paper. I was so angry to even read it. Maybe no travel history then so I went to Dubai.

Q4: Will not paying tax impose a problem. Its just an enterprise company anyways

Good day Gurus in the house.

I have been trying to book an appointment with TLS but I could see their is no free apointment.

Is it compulsory now that all appointment but be prime or Flex apointment,I was lucky to see a 12.30 appointment without no payment I booked it and the next day I checked the appointment have been removed.

I just want to know if it's now compulsory that TLS must be paid because I realized even for the Assisted service you will pay them 10,000Naira for the scanning of the document and for the self service they indicate you can your document yourself please how do one go about that and how can one get a free date.

My own suggestion I think it's quite ridiculous to pay a Third party like TLS 38,000 for Prime appointment and 42,000 for Flex appointment which is the only date showing up.

Gurus in the house please help out need assistance

YOU HAVE NO CHOICE THAN TO PAY FOR PRIME /FLEXI ....same thing happened to my sister some weeks ago .. but I told her to go there on that same day and explained to them at tls... but to my surprise,they allowed her in but paid 42k. This is a useless country where nothing works perfectly...

why dont you try to scan the documents Urself?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by dgoodrich101: 6:17pm On Apr 07, 2019
Accepted if you scan the document yourself where will you upload the scan document to. I pretty dont understand but 100% willing to learn, will you be give a computer or a laptop to work with at the submission centre to scan the document or you scan the document before you get to the submission centre and which website will upload the scan document too.

Am pretty sure Flash drive or CD Rom wouldnt be accepted paying 10,000Naira for the assisted service is still fare enough that could be accepted as their service charges because I know VFS charge service charges of 9,250 also but am worried about the Flexi and Prime Appointment.

Is their a way I can get a Free date without paying for the Prime/Flexi Service.

Thank you.

1. Your salary plus your business income is the answer to that question

2. State a breakdown of your budget

3. Yes you have to answer yes and give brief explanation

4. Without paying tax how will you know your net income?

My sister's 2 years visa is expired, and want to apply for 5 years now. It's the husband that do apply before. But she's divorced now and want to apply alone. The bank statement used before is the man's own. But she has a business running.

My question is how do we go about the application now? What documents are needed and how much should be in her bank account. Since it's business, is tax receipt included? Please kindly help

Hi Justwise and other gurus too numerous to mention grin,
Please what's the difference between Flexi appointment and Primetime appointment?
Am going to Abuja tomorrow afternoon, do TB test on Wednesday, then biometric. I want to be properly guided in case I can't get a date between Thursday and Friday.
Instead of getting a later appointment and travelling back to do biometric.

Btw please how much is TB test currently biko?

Thanks guys!
