Good day house: please I need to ask a very pressing question, is it possible for the ECO to issue a visit visa without making any formal contact?

Please I need experience here, has anyone received his/her visa, without the ECO contacting there sponsor, employer and so one... Please I need to know.... Many thanks

Please help with this...

Yes, that's possible

EasyMoney007:
Can someone really do answer me!

I need some assistance maybe a sample of a cover letter to add to my documents for submission please!

And I need clarification:
Is letter of Introduction, letter of intent and cover letter are they all thesame?

Or are they different letters or one is contained in the other?

Please your feedback is vital and greatly appreciated.

They're not the same thing. Letter of introduction is to be given you by your employer while cover letter is to state what you think ECO should know about, maybe your travel plan or you want to explain some funds that's not your salary.

Check google for template

Sparklescrib:
Pls house, a little clarification is needed. I was refused Canada Visa for misinterpretation. I have learnt my lesson the hard way never to use agents for application. How does this affect my application for a UK Visa. Though I declared I was refused Canada visa in my application.

Not sure it will affect your application as long as you've been truthful.

okposm:
Well to say the truth of don't really calculate but normally it should be in the range of 40 to 70k. An exception is when I am buying something for my house.

This looks pretty good.

okposm:
Justwise please come and help me out. I plan to visit my sister and other interesting site at the uk in October. I earn 378k per month but my housing is paid in advance and deducted monthly from my salary which makes me receive 238k. I have explained this in my cover letter and it is reflected on my payslip.

Now the problem is my budget is 241k for flight and 100k for transport making a total of 341k. I plan to stay for two weeks. My sister will be providing accommodation and feeding she has stated this on her letter. Does the budget look good? Cos I am worried that the embassy may take N238k x 2 as a measure of my spending. Thanks as always to respond to this.

What is your monthly expenses?

Thanks and Regards.

Include it in a cover letter
Flight reservation is not compulsory

Enick:
Hello guys,

I currently got my visa for a visit on the 17th of August to 27th August. Would there be a problem during renewal if I decided to do the visit later in the year?

Thanks for the reply.

That shouldn't be a problem as long as you don't stay too long as to avoid stories that touch.

marrywasiu:
Hello everyone, I will like know how someone with UK visitor's visa can stay in UK and have their citizenship.. pls I need an advice

That's not possible.

Enick:
Hi guys,

I just got a mail from the UK now that my application has been concluded and would be despatch soon. Surprisingly, they never called the person who sent me the invitation or my organization to confirm if documents emanated from him. This is very odd. Does this imply a denial ?

No, you have to receive your package first.

Dlaw6578:
Good day..... Please is it possible for me to walk-in without book an appointment with UK embassy? And secondly am the only one going to UK do I still need to submit my wedding certificate?

I don't know about the first one, but you should include your wedding certificate and pictures.

Hi, please what is the exchange rate used by TLS Abuja? I could not pay online and they billed in pounds to be paid during biometrics. [/quote

They use bank rate, your ATM card will be charged in Naira

TitilolaYusuf:
Good day house,

I applied and was refused visit visa in June because the ECO said he was not able to ascertain the sources of other deposits apart from my salary.

I reapplied again and did biometrics on the 19th of June attaching a letter of confirmation from my employers for the other lodgements as brokerage fees due to me with rent receipts issued to my tenants for the other lodgements too.

My cousin in the UK was called by the ECO on Monday 8th June and he confirmed he was expecting me and would be responsible for my accommodation and feeding for the period I'll be in UK and that he was sure I'll depart after my holiday.

It's over 18 working days now and I've not heard from the embassy and there was no mail too informing that my application is not straight forward. TLS portal just shows application is with DMC.

Any reasons to be concerned?

Just be patient, it will end in praise.

mybad:
Hello House,

I applied for six months visa last month and went for collection just yesterday.

Why do I feel the eco wasn’t fair in making a decision concerning my application?

I don’t think my documents were thoroughly checked.

See the reasons for refusal below:-
The credits and balances in your account are not consistent with your declared monthly income and I am not satisfied about the origins of the funds within your bank account.
On the evidence before me I am not satisfied that this statement is a true reflection of your financial circumstances or that your circumstances are as stated.[b][/b]

Please what should I do, when can I apply again?

Cc. Justwise

Sorry about that. What's your monthly salary and expenses? What was your opening balance and closing balance?

dustydee:
Good morning, I booked an appointment with TLS Abuja for someone but was told to pay at the centre. The bill was in pounds, will they accept naira? Will they accept cash as the person does not have a card.
If cash, what exchange rate will they use?
Thank you.

You will pay with your bank card at the centre, not sure if they accept cash.

mitchelle1989:
please please someone should please direct me to the link on TLS website where i can upload my documents. I have every document saved in my computer. I've filled the application, but I've been roaming around in TLS website, cant find where to upload documents. Please help

Long on to your email you will see a link in the payment successful from UK click on it and it will redirect you to TLS website

cerezo:

PDF

Thanks. Can i use my mobile phone scanner as my computer doesn't have PDF installed on it?

Hello gurus in the house,

I'm about uploading my documents on eDossier, does it have to be in PDF format?

Monmarri:
Not really . If you like u can add in the cover letter that some other small credit entries in your account are also money given as gift from family or friends OR anything the credit entries was meant for.

Okay. Thank you very much

Monmarri:
First explain your monthly salary .
My monthly income from my employment after tax is xxxxxx which the salary credits that enter my account usually end of the month paid by my employer. However, there are other details of genuine funds that come to my salary account or personal account ( Depending where there is irregularities of funds) which I find it necessary to explain.
On the 26th of June 2019 credit entry of N250 in my UBA account from my brother for family use
Keep listing the funds. U will also need to back it up with evidence.

Thanks, one more question, do i have to explain funds below #50k?

giselle237:
oh chimooooo. Oga, explain it in your own words as though you were speaking to a 3 year old and needed him to get your point of view.
Carefully list out dates, time with origin of funds amd then back up with your evidence for every of the said deposits.

Okay, thanks

Hello gurus,

Does anyone have a cover letter in explaining irregularities in bank account?

Abeg help me, I'm applying soon
