YES OHHHH, HE Was my sponsor..

But the FOOLISH MISTAKE i made was, on my first application I did not state him as My Uncle in the form
..I used the term "Guardian" (i was thinking dat because i've lived with hin through out my life) and he also mistakenly used "Ward" as me, therefore I was rejected because I did not clearly state the our relationship which does not show his guardianship over me.

Thank God My uncle has realized his innocent mistake and decided to make a fresh application, and wrote a letter "Letter of Support for my nephew's UK visa's application"

In the letter he wrote in details, Our relationship, and how he promised my late dad some years back that he'll always support me and my education up to dis level and beyond

Apparently hes my Uncle and im hes nephew...

He has succeded in proofing hes my uncle according to what he wrote ooh,

The main issue now is how hes going to proof his origin of fund(He has gotten the letter of employment stating his salary) As a clergyman, though he has plenty money in his bank statement account (inflow& outflow of cash) which came from church members depending on need. Please what do you think?

Also I have heeded to your advice to take a step backward and rethink critically before I reapply, to dat effect, I have decided to postpone or change to the second session as d King's summer school has two sessions 27June to 15 July and July 18 to August 8.

I have accepted my fate to attend the second session.
Please what do you think??

Apart from that, I have changed my course from Greek to International business and I attached a convicing letter more like an essay stating reasons for choosing Inter business and its benefit and its relationship with my current course(econs)
.

what do you think again?

Lastly, I am considering writing a letter stating why I choose Greek Language in my first application which was not related to my current course(Econs) .BUT I PERCEIVED IT TO BE UNNECESSARY BRO..
A letter like....(Abeg no laff at me oooh, just tell me if it makes sense to add such and if its able to reflect why I change from Greek to inter Business)

Dear sir/madam

"At first, I believe everyone has their own reasons for wanting to attend summer school or summer enrichment programme, but for me I simply choose Greek Language in my first application because I simply want something to occupy myself over the summer holiday as stated on the Kings College Bronchure. However, I am reminded by my Home university to cease the summer opportunity of the summer school and study International Business(attached a letter from my University staing dat), as taking a summer school and studying the course, international busines prior to the next semester of my home university is a great way of familiarising myself with the subject and giving a headstart, thereby lightening my workload when I go back to my school(my home university)

JUST ADVISE ME SIR!!






Was he the person that sponsored your first application that was refused?

justwise:


Now you are confusing me...who is the applicant here? You or the passport?

justwise:


Exactly what you said here now ...salary and gift from church members. You can't manufacture source of income

fizzile:
My worry is of what relevance is Greek language to Nigeria? Even if u want to go into Academics,maybe to lecture Economics,which group of persons learn with greek in Nigeria. To me its not just relevant. Ok why UK when u could have possibly learnt greek from Greece. Why not go to greece and learn greek?

The whole thing does not add up, you are still a student but you want to travel to London for a summer course which is even lower than the level you are studying now?

I'm not going to discourage but if i were you i will take a step back and think this through carefully before reapplying.

diamondsare4eva:
I will advice you to stick with your previous program. There is nothing wrong in trying to take a summer class outside of your program, we have American's that come to Nigeria for a semester to study a foreign language (Yoruba, igbo etc). You know why you chose a study abroad program in Greek language, just explain that in writing to the ECO. Get an evidence from your sponsor and if you have records of all their transactions include in your next application. Just be truthful in your application, am sure you will be fine if your intentions are genuine.

imperialebony:
I did not respond to your earlier post because Justwise had said it all. Now that you have changed your course of study to International Business , in my opinion it's much better than the Greek stuff(LOL). The problem I have on this is the timing. June starts next week and the embassy could be busier from next week( info from a reliable source today). You may just mail your school to postpone the course, since you have already paid. This will also give you enough time to prepare for your next application with a considerable amount on your guardian's account to boost your chance. Anytime you wish to reapply, your guardians would need to produce legal documents to prove they're your legal guardians...pls seek a lawyer's advice on this.

Na waoo for you ooo.... You are currently studying economics and computing and you are applying to study Ancient Greek in London? How do they relate?

You are using a sponsor as your legal guardian without legal paper to prove that?

Well first off to be honest!

No one will understand why a Nigerian would want to spend money to study ancient Greek!
It looks just like a back door to get a visa to work illegally.

Then there is no reason for the people to sponsor you, no family relationship.
Also the bank statements were weak and did not show source of funds.

Re-applying without making MAJOR changes to these details is just a waste of money.
Also you look desperate for the visa which in itself is a BIG red flag.

You are making many mistakes.

Ok, you can write the embassy with the document but make sure that the document is genuine since the embassy contact the same organization and was told that your mum is not the business owner. Is the case of proving that she owns the business if that is the only reason for refusal

imperialebony:
Actually, it takes them between 3 and 15 working days to conclude their assessment of an application (depending on your case and documents submitted alongside your application). By my calculation, today makes it the 9th day since your application was submitted. It's still in order.
