I was wondering how the 80k came about . I paid 34,393.14 for vfs service charges to get appointment and 68010 for visa fees . I didn't pay any for courier charges because of where I stay. They charge for courier based on location . quote author=goldenedem post=125081896] Hello , good day Please this 80k was it visa fee or what was it for ? I have my own appointment next week too , Please I would like to know . And also, exactly how much you paid for visa fee .[/quote] |

I agree with you , we can't even stay expressly that this is what she could have done better . quote author=Opeyemi007 post=125070728]I'm not sure they her bank statement. Even if they were going to refuse the application, they should have atleast said something about it.[/quote] |

I am really sorry about this .This looks like an error to me . Her statement would have shown her financial capacity , no mention of it at all . In time past they gave consideration to senior citizens even if they were retired and totally dependent on their children but it appears things are changing . quote author=Ufemia26 post=125070521]I am shattered 😭. My mom's visit visa application was refused today. I got the refusal mail this night. I submitted my payslip and husband's payslip, our account statements showing close to 11k pounds, my mom's account statement showing 1.5m, infact enough documentation from my end. Her reason for visit is to come see her first grand child as I put to bed 2 months ago.[/quote] |

Yes you can. I do that when applying for visas but I also do a break down of savings . I convert the dollars to naira using oanda rate of the date of application and add lit with the naira .in my cover letter . I decided to be doing this because a while ago I read that someone used a dollar acct and the ECO assumed it was in naira and thought she didn't have sufficient funds . I actually saw a copy of the refusal letter posted . I don't really know how he could have made that blunder . quote author=Tomisyn26 post=125046183]@emmafe Please can I use my USD account and naira account together as proof of funds, applying from Nigeria[/quote] 2 Likes |

Please if someone has paid the CA $85 biometrics fee, would you still need to pay the service charge at VFs Abuja that's Abt 33k . |

Congratulations, did you have valid visas to other countries ? Did you have to book an appointment for your biometrics or you just walked in . jesufifunmi: |

How did they go about to become British citizens ..were they born there ? If they were then it's not a problem . But I THINK if they went through study route or the highly skilled migration program they were doing years ago your friend may have a point . I recall someone in the US was denied because his brother went as a student and didn't come back but a citizen now and the VO denied him and said he won't come back as well and mentioned that was how his brother left too . That being said you may need to ensure you provide other ties apart from family that may help in convincing them that you will come back . Thewritingnerd: |

Hello everyone , i submitted my TRV application yesterday evening and I just got a mail to do my biometrics . My passport is at the France Embassy at the moment , I actually just submitted yesterday. I have a scanned copy of the BioData page of my passport , would that be acceptable or do I need to wait to collect my passport . Secondly, if I delay in doing the biometrics but within the 30 days specified , does it delay the processing of my application? |

You could have opted for their courier services instead of travelling to Lagos . If you didn't get a refusal in your inbox, spam or promotion mail ..it's likely to be approved . Also did you track it ? Did it move from DMC to VAC if it did , that's also a possibility that it was approved . I wish you the best . quote author=Arise01 post=124967748]Goodafternoon guys Can we say for sure that the 'Travel Document Ready for Collection' mail means visa is approved or do you need to pick up to confirm? Logistics and cost of travelling to Lagos twice means it is preferable to pick up passport on the way to making the actual trip. But need to be sure there is an approved visa.[/quote] |

Thank you .I used Ryanair for the other states. For my previous visas I used Airfrance to book the multicity routes , but that was France and Germany so I was thinking I would be able to do same for Spain and Rome . Next time I will just stick to France alone as earlier suggested . Will check travelstart out , thank you Blessedsteph: |

[I guess next time l will have that in mind , I already mentioned it in my form and submitted online I was able to use Ryanair for the other states . Thank you quote author=Africankel post=124932504]It is best to limit your itinerary to one country.
