Hope it's ok like this

Pls house I need advice at this point in time

Hope it's ok like this

TheExalted:


Please delete and remove your personal information before sharing it.

Ok thanks, am so confused

TheExalted:


I'm sorry to hear about your refusal. Please work on the reasons for the refusal and resubmit if you can or wait until your situation has changed then you re-apply. Whatever you do, just don't give up.

Thanks

This is the refusal mail

After waiting for so long , this refusal is heart breaking

Nchabuomo:

Sorry to hear. Please address whatever the issues given in the refusal letter and try again.

Thanks

Am so downcast, I just got a refusal mail

Nchabuomo:


Well, I think it's fine if the OP just "tampered" with it. As long as your account statement is clean and you still have enough to fund your trip then you shouldn't worry. Even if they decide to verify your documents you should still be fine. It's a bank account hence it's unrealistic for you not to be spending from the account until your visa is approved.

Well said @Nchabuomo, I hope he sees the light you have just shed on this.

Nchabuomo:


Simple answer there's no way for you to find out. It's not standard procedure for them to contact your bank. Honestly, it isn't your business if they do or do not. As long as the documents submitted are genuine then there's nothing to worry about.

Lol! Am sure the reason he wants to know is that , maybe he's tapered with the money in the account so much. So he's scared of the fact that If they find out it might affect the decision, because it happened to me too

evetyson:
Yes

Ok thanks

evetyson:
Before receiving the collection mail

Ok , that's to say your visa will most likely be approved if you get your collection mail without being previously sent a refusal mail ?

Please when do they normally send the refusal mail?, is it after collecting your passport at VAC or after they send you collection mail ?

Gentlesoul3268:
God is great, congratulations sus I pray by Monday you will get a collection mail and visa.

Did you sent them paid message and they reply back that decision has been made or they just email you?

Thanks, yes i sent them last week Thursday and they said and i quote: We are receiving an unprecedented volume of applications which has led to an increase in escalations. We are working as quickly as we can to get through these, we apologise for any inconvenience this is causing you. Then I sent them another one yesterday, I have been waiting for their reply before this mail dropped.

Gentlesoul3268:

Don't think negatively sus4,God is under control is not only you counting days ok relax and chill

Thanks @Gentlesoul , just got a mail decision has been made .hallelujah

AmeliaT:
You'll be fine, hun. You have done the ground work. They understand name changes.

Thanks @Amella i just got a mail that decision has been made, hallelujah �

leef2022:


Hello Sus4,

You should be fine, have you sent them paid mail? If yes, ring them if time given for wait after escalation has elapsed.

Thanks @leef2022 , I sent last week Thursday and another one yesterday. Glory be to God I just received an email from them now! now! saying decision has been made on my application. ��

Congrats to everyone that's gotten positive responses, I pray God will remember us too. When oct 27 received collection email some days ago, i doubled up my hope cos mine is oct 29. Now I don't know what's happening again oo.
Pls my people I have this to share with you , cos this afternoon a lot has gone thru my mind .
In the application i submitted, i made some changes. I added a middle name to my new passport so it can tally with the names on my NIN , which was not on my old passports that carry my expired 6 months and 2 years uk visas. I also told them about an additional source of income .
Note: I provided affidavit for the added middle name.

I was just thinking this afternoon that the delay could
be as a result of these changes. Perhaps they're trying to verify the changes

evetyson:
After DHL and wahala I finally got my passport this morning with my Visa. Thanks everyone for your love and support. Signed Evelyn

Congrats!

Congratulations to everyone who has received their visas, more to come this week Ijn Amen

Gentlesoul3268:



Your application is 48 WD today not 59 WD since you did your biometric on 29 oct may be you are counting festive holiday with it lol. Don't worry you will get your collection email today or this week ......

Nor mind me jare these people are over stretching one's patience. Thanks for the correction and the encouragement.

Good morning house, this is the response i got from the ukvi regarding my application status, please what should be my next step?
Today will make it 59 WD since i did my biometrics at ikeja.

i just checked , They don't reply on fridays Saturdays Sunday and uk public holidays.

Gentlesoul3268:


I thought they will ask your GWF when you are filling the form to send a paid enquiry? Bcoz I did it on Friday and got a response the same day

Ok , I didn't initially see anywhere on the form for GWF num though.

Hello house, I sent a paid enquiry on thur evening, Friday morning they asked me to send my GWF num and i did. I don't know if they will verify my application status and reply me over the weekend. Or is it until Monday ?

Enishit:




My best Advise go to Abuja I helped my aunty for a visitors visa she submitted on the 20th Dec did biometrics on the 22nd Dec
She got a picked up mail yesterday she’s got her visa today.

Standard or priority?

evetyson:
