@ dadamann have you finally gotten a response from them

My documents is ready for collection

dadamann:
So sorry about ur refusal. I remember u were about to cancel ur application as a result of a mistake.

Sponsorships can be very tricky. You have to prove why the person in question wants to sponsor you as u re not related in any way. The person will also have to write a convincing letter why they are sponsoring u, perhaps as a gift to u. My advice is that u plan well, exploring various possibilites before applying again. Plus, address whatever issues were stated in the refusal letter as well.




[Qquote author=Juddy2018 post=105845523]Please can someone give me advice on how someone that is not related to me, can be my sponsor for a visit visa. Thank you.

@ dadamann have you finally gotten a response from them

dadamann:
I'm so sorry about the refusal. As for me, I got a reply from the paid email to UKVI yesterday that a decision has been made on my application and that i will be contacted shortly. Fingers crossed!

I hope it will be a positive outcome.

dadamann:
It doesn't matter @unikbeing. What is more important is that you have the requisite financial capability to cater for urself during ur trip. Once you have ur visa, u may decide to travel at any other time within ur visa validity.

Thank you bro.
Have you gotten any feedback?

dadamann:
I'm also on the same boat as ur sister. I gave my biometrics on the same day. I only heard from DMC on the 6th of September (intended date of trip) that they had just received my application (like seriously after 19 working days) and that i will have to wait again within the service delivery timeframe (15 working days) for a decision. I was able to get their attention though by sending a paid email to them for a response that they would escalate my case to the relevant department. So, i suggest to send a paid email to them.

@dadamann and the whole house, what will happen if decision has not been made on your application as the date for the intended trip has passed or still counting?

@Dadaman and @unikbeing... You both and my Sister had your biometrics on 09/08/2021, and after Dadaman advised that I send a paid mail, they replied within 24hrs that it was at VAC. Just yesterday, she received another 'email' this time, asking for her details, and they were forwarded to the address. A REFUSAL LETTER WAS RECEIVED TODAY however, with refusal reason stated as:

•        You intend to visit the UK for 19 days for tourism. You state that you are employed earning 336,800 NGN (£590.63 at exchange rate £1 = 570.23 NGN). You state that you spend 150,000 NGN (£263.04) on the cost of living each month which leaves you with a monthly disposable income of £327.59.  You state that you alone are funding your trip and that you have £1,300 in total for your trip.  This equates to 4 times your monthly disposable income.  From the documents and information provided, I am not satisfied that the proposed trip is proportionate to your finances and is therefore credible. I consider this rather a large outlay on a tourism trip when viewed in light of your salary, which leads me to doubt the credibility of your trip and therefore your intentions for your visit.

PLEASE I NEED ADVICE ON THE WAY FORWARD EVERYONE AND ANYONE WITH AN IDEA OF WHAT'S GOING ON...���

NOTE: Money in her account at time of application was N1.8mill.

Also, monthly expenses does not total 150,000, basically. Just wrote it in the application like that cos last few months have seen her account depleting in that range for landed property she's building (all proofs were submitted).

No right of appeal.

So sorry about the refusal, I sent another mail today but am yet to get a response.

Juddy2018:

Really sorry about that, when did you apply? I mean the date.
