If you have not paid the agent we can work together on this for free. I feel your pain bro and I understand the anxiety. Put yourself together.

Viqtour:
Thanks bro, I appreciate. However, as we were desperate we paid the agent most of the money; visa priority, visa fee and advance for processing. I never knew I could pay with my MasterCard. He has started working on it and has sent me the form to confirm the details. I just hope we get value for the money spent.

Good Evening Guru's about submitting my documents, I printed my statement today and I just remembered that I made a transfer of 500k into the account from my other account, although when I remembered I quickly withdrew /transfered the 500k back over the next 2 days. I submitted my own account just to show my salary inflow. My question is since I'm using my family's company (I'm a director) as the sponsor and submitting the company account statement, do I need to still explain the deposit in my account?

ezybaba:
I hav a similar issue my cousin refuse to send her bank statement to me but seh send payslip

justwise:
Not the end of the world but never allow the agent to add any document that is not from you and never allow him to misrepresent..e.g false info or exaggerate info so as to afford 10yrs ban.

You need to know every single info and document in that application form...if you are not clear come back here to ask.

justwise:
Who is sponsoring the trip?

justwise:
You need to apply separately for your wife

dewale1234:
Kindly pardon my wahala o. I have concluded the filling online and i am being directed to the payment part, but i have not selected date and location for biometrics, I want VI, but the thing is showing 129USD

Will payment be made before choosing date and biometrics venue?

Please help a brother.

Thanks

omicron:
Yes. Pay and you can then proceed to book appointment for biometrics. You would have selected the Visa Application Centre you will use at the beginning of the application, so in this case it should have been the VI VAC.

I have been looking for information about a child of 10 years that wants to apply for a visiting Visa on her own but i cannot find anything specifically. Like how much she should have in her account, documents required. Her mum has a valid UK visa so she wants her to apply on her own. I saw that she pays the same amount for the Visa applicants as an adult. Please help is needed.

kuljiyke:

If you are applying from Europe, North & West Africa and GCC countries:

- And you submitted your application at a visa application centre - You will receive an email shortly from TLS or VFS about collecting your decision. Please ensure you check your e-mail account and do not attend the VAC until you are advised to.

VAC - Visa Application Centre.

Im yet to get a msg from VAC.

chukyrooy:
Called them on  00 44 203 481 1736 and gave them my sterling mastercard.

omicron:
Yes. Pay and you can then proceed to book appointment for biometrics. You would have selected the Visa Application Centre you will use at the beginning of the application, so in this case it should have been the VI VAC.

Zika01:
Why not address the reason for your refusal and apply again. I’m sure you must have declared that u don’t have any family or friend in the Uk. Paste your refusal letter here removing personal details so that the gurus here can help you.
