Pls who knows the fate of those of us that were granted 6months UK Visa in March ending but could not travel because of Corona virus,will Uk revalidate the visa or what will happen?

chairman, its like reapplication sure pass o, i dont think they r ready to talk abt it.

so reapply and move forward

lightest:


do paid enquiry if decision has been taking on it they will do escalation for passport return.

I think he did that already and was told a decision has already been taken. But his status on his tracker has refused to change

We are in the same shoe... Try to escalate via mail to the UKVI.... I did escalate 13 working days ago, and they r yet to return my passport. Still showing transfer to DMC

Ameey:
I'm seriously fed up! Is it a crime to apply in March? They're yet to clear backlogs, yet new applications are being given priority.

famzynet:

Please how does one go about medical insurance? Like how much does it cost and for what duration?. I may be needing it for my visiting parents.

For visit visa,I never used it. Not necessary for a young person if visit is short. Just hope nothing happens health wise. But necessary for elderly people. They can fall sick anytime.

U could check with insurance companies . Axa Mansard is a common one. Just go through the terms and conditions.

Good afternoon friends, i just finished sending some documents to the Eco after he sent me an email to confirm my status, which i have done already, pls will he send like received or I should just wait for it to be transferred to vac. I sent those documents within 10 days tho. Pls reply is it normal for the eco to not send anything buh dispatch d passports to vac. Pls reply do u have experience

best of luck ahead

Good afternoon.

I'm submitting an application for my parents to visit me in the UK (they have visited 3 times prior to now).

I will be financially responsible for the trip (flights, accommodation, feeding, application fees). Do they still need to provide bank statements? Dad is self employed and Mum is retired.

I intend to upload the documents required online, do they still need to take physical copies?

There are two main ways of submitting documents; Self Upload or Assisted Service. With self upload, you upload documents yourself and not take physical documents to the appointment. You only need to take supporting documents if you choose Assisted Service.

It depends on how the ECO interprets the visa application, especially in deciding whether your parents are genuine visitors (meaning visitors that would leave at the end of their visit). Having a travel history to the UK would work in their favour.

Have you ever invited them without including their bank statements with the visa approved? I know one who invited his mother in-law (who has never worked - a housewife) and had the visit approved but her bank statement was included. The idea of including bank statements when they are not contributing towards the cost of the trip is mostly as a tie to Nigeria. If you have sent them money within the 6 months it would show in their account statement and can also be seen as your relationship and commitment with them.

Tuoma:
You can even type it from the scratch, send the soft copy to her so she can append her signature and she is gonna send the scanned copy to you.
It's simple.

I have a closing balance of 3,761,565.08 Naira

Pls, how much can i input as my budget for trip ?
Because this people hmmm, if the money for trip budget is too much or small they will compromise.

I put 1,750 GBP is this too much or small, as my host is only providing me with accommodation and feeding, and not round ticket flight for 3 weeks holiday’s.

Thanks so much for answering my other questions, in fact the invitation letter is now corrected and medical insurance is remove, i really appreciate ur efforts and time and everyone else who answers me here

They requested passport number and GWF no...

Does having a Car in Nig serve as tie back home? Is there a particular reason you are including your mother's data page? I dont see what purpose adding her car papers will do for you.

Her passport data page serves as part of his home ties.... that his mother will be present in Nigeria during the time of his travel and so he will be returning as he can not abandon his ‘elderly’ mom to go and live in the uk... and so forth with the lyrics.
And yes to his own car documents.
There would be no need for his mother’s

U can’t guess what to write as over or under budgeting can work against you.
You should use ur salary and then subtract ur monthly expenses to have a figure.. they do not care if you have 100 million dollars as your account balance, ur budget must be tallying with at most twice your income after removing expenses

I am just trying to show enough ties back home.

So i think submitting of her passport data page will show more ties that i have family member in Nigeria ect

Please passport data page DOES NOT signify home ties in ANYWAY.

If you read my previous texts about my trip budget @tuoma says i should make it up to 2000 GBP for my trip budgets as i make it 1,750 GBP before.


And if i multiple my monthly salary of 320,000k twice as u day that will be estimates of 640,801.04 Naira

My thoughts too! How will they determine she's abroad or based in Nig with her passport data page?

No car docs or mother’s data page pls!!!

Here is the calculations



Salary after tax: 630.65 GBP= 320,400.52

Monthly expenses: 180 GBP= 91,434.09

Budgets for trip: 2000 GBP= 1,016,601.01 - (3,761,565.08 bank closing balance) = 2,744,964.07 Naira

Your disposable income is 320,400.52 -91,434.09 which falls to about N230k monthly. Budgeting a million is 4times your disposable income.

If i were in your shoes, so long Accomodation and feeding is to be provided by your host, i will budget between 600k to 700k.

I only write what I have done in all my applications and all applications of my family members, if it does not tally with you, sorry my bad.
I never claimed to be UKVI.
Neither has anyone on this thread claimed to be.
Once again, I have used passport data pages of my family members plus their work ids and supporting letters to show that they would be in Nigeria for all periods of my travels... and trust me I have applied successfully several times.

Stick to keeping your budget at 450k is what I would do.
That would be 2 times your disposable income of 230k pls.
Most times this has worked.

Their data pages wasn’t the reason you got the visas hun xx. It doesn’t prove a thing at all
