Thank you so much, what I was trying to ask was, due to the pandemic and all can I apply for the UK tourist visa now. Thanks

Ashirioluwa:

Yes you can apply but you need to take this pandemic into consideration too. I believe the number of visitor's visas that will be given out this time will be reduced due to this pandemic.

I believe you can get it if you package your application well. Best of luck

Hello Justwise,
A big kudus for job well done. You are simply amazing and helpful.
Am new to this platform and am impressed with your educative tips on addressing issue and support.
I want to travel to the UK based on my friend's invitation for 2weeks, she will be responsible for accommodating me in her house and feeding while my stay. I work with MTN as a Customer Care Representative(Team lead) received 75k as salary but N68,532.13 is being paid monthly to my bank account, meanwhile I also received 220k monthly as returned on Investment on that same account so I say I earn 268k monthly. Am married with 2 children. I intend applying in October this year, I have roughly 1,2M in my account. Flight £280 Living expenses £300,, Shopping £280 total budget for the trip £1,060.15 in Naira is N535,884.00. Pls advise if its below budget. However sometimes my husband transfers small change at times for me to spend for keeps..Please guild me on what and what I will need to make it a success . Thank you for your Swift response.

By self sponsor, I presume you mean footing the costs of your proposed trip yourself. Well, yes to your question. You need to provide evidence of your financial circumstance in your home country. Without that you can not be perceived as a genuine visitor. This usually comes in the form of employment letter, your bank statements and payslips. You must provide the sources of funds you claim is accessible by you.

mimilyrics:
It depends on your car brand and the places you go (parking charges, fuel consumption, tolls e.t.c ) in addition to insurance and tax costs.

I want to ask some questions guys.

Someone who has certificate of sponsorship assigned on 1st of August which expires on 2nd of November that's 3months duration b4 it expires.

Is it possible for someone to make use of that CoS to apply for Visa on October 29th, 30th or 31st. Or is the CoS still valid to apply for visa ending of October.


2nd: Questions. Can one assigned two Cos from different employer at the same time. Or can one have another CoS assigned from different employer at d same time before the previous CoS expires. **employer is NHS**.

Cece592:


Thank you. What can I do in the absence of this

Symbae:



1. Your assigned COS has to be valid until you have attended your biometrics,if it has expired after that, you might be contacted by eco

2. An individual cannot be assigned 2 COS at a time, one must be cancelled before another can be assigned or you wait after the 3 months of expiration to apply for another one if your initial employer refuses to cancel the COS issued

TIGER1001:
Can a joint account(mother and daughter) be accepted for the daughter's application for a UK tourist visa. Both have been to the UK.

ZabethMay:
The 15 working days wait after the Interview is the longest 15 days ever!!!!��

Anyone that has received their visa recently please share your timeline �

LoyalRoyalty:
I hope you will remember your fellow Nairalanders by the time your moniker speaks for you in the future. UK embassy is now receiving applications for all visa categories. Good luck Mr. President.

Brightingsus:


The 15 working days is actually 3 weeks. Visa can be granted within or even outside of this window depending on the simplicity or complexity of the application. UKVI sometimes would email to inform the applicant if their application would not be decided within that 15 working days window.

I applied for a family member to visit and visa granted in 9 working days, though a second time traveller. Someone else here got visa in 10 working days.

27.07.20... Online Application
06.08.20... Biometrics at Ikeja TLS
11.08.20... Application received by DMC
19.08.20 (AM)... Application transferred to VAC
19.08.20 (PM)... Passport ready for collection email
20.08.20... Passport collected with visa.

Hello everyone. Please is there a way to know the available dates for biometrics appointment for UK visas before submitting your application? I’ve got an unused US visa that expires at the end of next month and I want to travel to the US next month for 2 weeks before the visa expires but I’m worried that when I submit my UK application online the biometrics dates will be too far like maybe 2 weeks ahead. Then before I add the time they’ll hold my passport my US visa will have expired. So please how can I see the available biometrics dates before clicking submit. Thank you.
