Good morning everyone,

I need your advice please, i want to reapply for UK visit visa after been refused 2years ago. My last application was a hotel reservation and now i have an aunt that wants to invite me. Will it complicate my application or not?

Thanks
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Yommieyomi: 8:38am On May 13, 2019
what I normally do is to pick the hotel name from booking.com
and go to the personal website of the hotel, then i make the booking.


kaakaa:
So you mean book flight, print the flight itinery then cancel the booking, right?



Please how about booking hotel reservation, I can't find any one that allows pay on Arrival, most of them have free cancellation dates that is almost before my arrival..... using bookings.com,
Any way around that?

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Yommieyomi: 8:43am On May 13, 2019
Did you indicate you have family in the UK in your previous application?

If NOT then you are looking for refusal.

@ justwise and other gurus
What other documents asides account statement does a sponsor (who is a business owner) need to provide for the applicant?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by giselle237: 9:16am On May 13, 2019
Two years ago is enough time for you yo now have family in the UK. My first visa application I answered no to that question and was given, 2nd visa application was yes and was given and the time gap between those applications was 1 year. I feel every application is treated based on its merits so inline with that feel free to defend this your present application wholeheartedly as to why you should be given a visa.
That's my opinion

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by wintabotom: 12:30pm On May 13, 2019
my moms application was just denied due to negligence of the VO which is very annoying. As the sponsor of her trip, i submitted 2 bank statements with a cover letter explaining that the GTB statement was to show my salary while access bank was to show my savings (balance of about 4m) can u believe they didn't even look at the access account. They said my GTB statement has just 390k (salary acc) hence as the sponsor i am not sufficiently funded to sponsor my mom angry angry.
another annoying fact is that the VO claims my moms account had a lump deposit in November 2018 (which we explained was a Treasury Bill Maturity) with evidence from the bank. Imagine this same VO claims they are not satisfied she can fund the trip. Is this madness? This Tbill has been my moms savings over the years which she has been rolling over once it matures. The VO didnt even look at the investment advise or any supporting document. In my moms account it was so obvious she had to investment over a while. Do u think i shd reapply and represent the documents again. This time i would state all the documents provided in my form and let them know we had provided evidence of the funds in this application but it wasnt looked at,

See below the reason..
You state you are retired and have not declared an income. You state that you have
savings of £7476.22 and that you have recently cashed an investment which is
indicated in your bank statement. However the transaction history in the copies of your
bank statement you have provided indicates irregular deposits made to your account
in November 2018, that are not in keeping with your stated personal circumstance or
income and for which you have provided no explanation. As such I am not satisfied
that you have provided an accurate portrayal of your current personal circumstances.
 Given the above I am not satisfied that you intend to leave the UK at the end of your
visit and that you have sufficient funds to cover all reasonable costs in relation to
your visit and that you are genuinely seeking entry as a visitor. Your application is
therefore refused under paragraph V4.2 (a) (c) and (e)
 You state that your daughter...... will be funding your trip with
£1000 and in support of this you have provided a copy of her bank statement. The
closing balance for this account on 5 May 2019 was 390561.80 NGN (£830.86
current exchange rate £1 = 470.06 NGN). I am therefore not satisfied that your
sponsor can and will provide support to you for the intended duration of your stay.

Is anyone experiencing any challenge with uploading document under self-service? I uploaded a document since Saturday, it's showing "Processing this upload" up till now. Is this an attempt to make people come pay for scanning in their center? My appointment is fast approaching, yet I've not been able to upload a single document.

PLEASE HELP ME


Can 800 pound budget fly for my mum.....it's full sponsorship from us,she will only include her statement but she's not contributing anything and we are thinking of inputting 2weeks or 3weeks visit.
Accommodation and feeding on us..
The 800pound is for flight shopping and miscellaneous
Can it fly?


She was previously rejected in March cuz we put 5months and 2,000pounds as budget and that she's adding 500pound from her end...but the application was bounced on financial grounds cuz then we submitted with 2800 balance and she had 1550 balance.But now we have saved like 3,000 and we gonna add more 2500 before she applies in June.
