It really makes no sense.
Was it recently he joined the firm?
Are there unexplained gaps or periods in the bank statement suggesting lack of monthly payment at a particular time?
Did he declare how much he intends to spend on the trip?

Skrskr:


Chief, how many months of payslip did you provide?
What did you say you were going to do on the 7 days of visit?

I've collected my passport already with Visa granted. I collected it last Friday. You can call UKVI on +442034811736. The TLScontact number seems suspicious, I wont advice calling, unless you can confirm. You can walk in to check if a decision has been made already.

@chijiuba have you 3 gone together on a family vacation before?

Chijiuba:


Yes I intend to (does it reduce my chances?) Please advice me on the best option you think

ijeshaoflondon:
Hello everyone ... compliments of the season ... I need ur advise pls.. My friend wants to invite his parent during Easter period and He is married to a white lady and are both British Citizen.

His parent applied last year but were both refused becos an Agent of destruction did not fill the application forms correctly.

His father is Old, above 76yrs and Mother 69yrs, They both went to Hajj last year and mother visited the United states like 2 years ago to visit her first Son.

Father aint working anymore, He has just 300k in his savings account (allowee from his children) but Mother is a major distributor to dangote Cement COY. so she has over 2m in her savings account with which i advised her to pay herself a sum of 200k every month. They both have assets in their names.

First Question is

1. Can my friend's mother SPONSOR the trip with her statement of account? OR

2 . Should my friend and his wife claim to fully Sponsor them? My friend has about 5k pounds and the wife has about 12k pounds in the accounts respectively.

Justwise, giselle and other gurus ...kindly advise pls .

MUCOKING12:

Ije004:
Please help!
Is flight booking needed for UK Visa? First timer?
If yes, how can it be done?
Searched on this forum for answers to this question but couldn't find it.

opomulero:

just make a reservation and you are good to go

justwise:


1. Are you suggesting that your employees does not pay tax?[i] We only pay the FIRS Annual tax return, nothing is payed on behalf of the employees.[/i]
2. Employment letter, salary account and letter from the company detailing the trip

3. No

4. They need to draw budget for the trip then you transfer the money into their accounts but that needs to be explained in the letter.

Have your company ever sent any of your worker outside Nigeria before? Yes the senior manager always attend conference and training in the UK.

Skrskr:
Thanks a lot, chief. Really appreciate your input.

With regards to 1. The salary reduction was because I no longer pay for my accommodation, the company does now.
2. With regards to spending 2 months instead of one. What actually happened was that I planned to spend 1 month for my mom's graduation which was in October. However, my visa was refused due to erratic judgement from the ECO claiming I did not have enough funds. I contested this refusal and by the time they overturned the decision, it was already past the graduation time and the period specified in the visa. So technically, I never lied about spending 1 month then spend 2. That was not the case. But I do understand what you are saying.

3. Thanks. No, I can't lie and don't intend to. Moreover, the form asks for date of entry and period spent in the UK which I correctly input the 2 months (I am yet to pay or submit until I am back in Nigeria).

4. Point fully noted. Can I just say I'm coming for another 2 months then? Please note that I am not planning to come here until April when my current visa would have almost been over.

5. Point fully noted. Thanks, boss

dilodavid:
4 months payslips. I stated the tourist attractions I planned to visit.

omopapa:
What seems to be your strongest tie to a Nigeria is ur wife and son. Applying with them, the ECO could see is an opportunity for u to japa

giselle237:
How much was ur disposable income? How many months bank statement did you submit?

dilodavid:

Chijiuba:
So please what options can I exploit?

giselle237:
Hmm. I now understand what might have happened
No problem.
you can still seek redress with your complaint letter if that’s what you have in mind. Good luck

graceodini:


Okay sir. I have the land sale agreement, survey and plan. I also have the copies of power of attorney given to my Estate Agent and Tenancy Agreement . The money was transferred to me from his corporate account. I will extend the trip to 2weeks as advised. Thanks.

MISSYTOSIN:
Pls I was instructed by home office to resubmit my passport to TLS after decision was overturned . Do I need to book appointment to do this?

Seeyat:


You should print out the email stating your decision has been overturned and make 2 photocopies of your passport bio data page and take it there. You don't need to book any appointment
