Hello everyone

A friend received an email stating a refusal for her visa application and the reason for that.

Just wondering what is going on as her passport is yet to be returned. She didn't even receive any mail about decision being made or anything. Just an email stating she was refused visit visa.

Please people, kindly shed light on this cause I have never heard such before.
She should be on the look out for another mail for passport pick up.

That's the new procedure.

Hoping someone answers this in detail.
If you own and register a business you are self employed despite the fact that you still have to pay yourself salary from the company's account. it's not expected of you to run your personal expenses from the company account but those people who you employ to work for you in the business are the ones who are employed.

Someone who is self employed is expected to submit the CAC, document showing allotment of shares and list of directors, introduction letter(which can be signed by anybody in the company) and other relevant documents.

Someone who is employed in the company is expected to submit an employment letter, promotion letter, letter of introduction, payslip and other relevant documents.

Hope you understand ?

Hello great ones. Pls help me out my son is going for students visa on the 15th and I also applied for a 2 years visa. My salary is 70k but I own a shop and earn more than 400k a month. I printed my 6 months bank statement with opening balance of 18m and closing bal of 298000. I stated my monthly expenses as 300k and I will be spending 3m.for my expenses. My husband is sponsoring me and my son. The account bal he used to get an admission for my son was 10m.
The question now is do I need to submit my statement of personal account and my salary account. In my salary account there is no much money.
Also, should my husband submit a new bank statement or we should use the one he used for CAS which is 10m bal.

Thank you
In addition to what my boss said:

The 3million is more than 2 months disposable income which will not fly. If your salary is 70k, do you pay your self from the money you earn from your shop ?

Let's assume your salary is 70k + 400k= 470k
Monthly expenses 300k
So you have 170k left per month and you want to spend 3million for a trip. It can't fly.

Is the statement of account with high balance for your business, salary or savings ?
If its savings how was it accumulated?
If it's for your business it doesn't have any effect on your application.

As for the statement of acct you used in getting your son's COS make sure it's a recent statement of account and the money has been there for 28 days.

Is this your first application to the UK ?

Giselle something confuses me...you know for individuals who have businesses but gets paid by thier business (submits personal account with clear monthly earnings from their business), when filling the form is it advisable to tick self employed (because u own a business) or tick employed (or because you re employed by yur business that pays you salary)huh
Self employed

TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Sego12345: 9:58am On Dec 02, 2020
mamaforsure:
ok done
At this stage you need to go back to the drawing board.

Are you sure you didn't make any mistake when filling the application form?

Is your monthly fixed income paid from your company account to your personal account?

In as much as it is your husband that is sponsoring you did you indicate this in your application form and did you attach is financial document and the budget for the trip ?
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Sego12345: 9:47am On Dec 02, 2020
kisibo:
that means business owners must starts paying themselves salary of the amount stated in their previous application and use the statement of account to reapply again without any other deposits except salary .. right?
Yes, that's better to avoid complicating issues.
Most importantly ensure the account is not stagnant, run your monthly expenses from the account.

You need to attach your own refusal letter for better understanding.

kisibo:
can someone that have been refused based on the amount deposited in his account is not fixed due to using personal account to run his business follow this procedure and start paying himself salary of the amount he mentioned in his application for it to be fixed and to be accurate.?
Yes and make sure it's only salary deposit for 6 months and don't forget to make monthly withdrawal for monthly expenses too ( you can use your atm card to make withdrawal, payment in supermarket etc).

Hope you understand?

I need help o.

I was deported from the US in 2017 at the Chicago POE. Wasn't banned but I know its kinda difficult to go back to the US. I have since travelled to Germany, France (twice), Turkey, South Africa, and Greece. I had no issues with any of these countries and I returned home at the right time.

Before my deportation, I travelled to the US in 2015 and returned without any issue. I also went to the UK in 2016 and returned home without any issues but economic wahala made me take that regrettable US trip that led to my deportation. Things are better for us now.

Right now, my wife has won a full PhD scholarship to study in the UK and we are about to apply to move to the UK with our two children. We plan to tell the truth in our VISA application but is there something else I can do to ensure we don't fail?

Please I know I made a mistake so you can ignore the deportation mess.

Can you guys please give me advice?
Why don't you let your wife apply and get her visa first before other members of the family apply.
When it's your turn to apply make sure you say the truth in your application.

Gurus in the house, i have been scared of applying for UK visa simply because of Tax Clearance certificate.Thats why i visit dubai often. I am an entrepreneur have a business venture registered in 2017 with a bank account.

Have a family member in UK who can send invitation and state that she will yake care of feeding and accommodation.

I have 3 accounts 1 which is the business which regularly have large deposits. Then another account which i usually transfer funds from the business account for out going transactions. This account also recieves huge deposits from the business account. The third account is my savings account which i transfer funds between 150,000-250,000 to from my second account.

At the moment business account has about 5,000,000 at the moment. The second account has about 1.5 and the savings has about 3,000,000.

Also have property valued at 16,000,000.

Now my challenge is that i want to state that the trip will cost me 500,000 since accommodation is take care of for 12 days. The issue of the total cost of the trip not being more than 2 times disposable income. So that means my disposable income should be 250 000 and monthly expenses is 50k. That means i earn 300k monthly after tax. So my total annual income should be about 3.9-4m.

Annual tax should be about 350k. And tax clearance is about 3-4 years back. Meaning u have to pay 350k X about 3 years= about 1.1m or more.

Do i pay this and get tax clearance to apply, or appy with only statements and property documentation without tax document?

Or should i build an account for 6months as an employee for someone.?
The ECO are not inquisitive about your tax clearance just make sure you pay yourself a fixed amount monthly from the company's account for six months to your personal account. No unnecessary deposit apart from salary and also ensure a particular amount for your expenses(set a standard) in such a way that your travel budget will not be more that 2 months your disposable income.

You will need just
1. Your salary statement of account of 6 months
2. Cac document
3. Document showing you are the ceo/md of the company and no. of allotted shares
4. ID card and other relevant document

What if I apply for tourist visa (where I would be staying in a hotel) would that make any difference? where by proving my father is in nigeria and I would not be staying with him because he is not in the UK, so i have to stay in a hotel
Follow what giselle237 rightly said and most importantly
work on the reason for refusal don't try to change what you filled in your application initially so as not to complicate issues or lead to a ban.
