I'm happy this culture is fast dying out. Its too barbaric abeg! See the way that person is just tearing that poor child's face. For me o, I can't marry someone with tribal marks. The person you marry should be visually appealing to you and I find tribal marks offensive.
I'm with you

Yes the two months salary thing does not apply to such category of people.

Somebody with 5million in the account but earns 80K must be a money doubler
Lol, money doubler....
But what about those who are furtunate enough to inherit money or properties worth millions, what if they sold a property (let's say) 2 years ago?
Such people could be earning 50k monthly and yet have 5 million Naira in their account.

justwise:
Your salary will do if you will not spend more than 2months of it for the trip, so basically if the trip will cost you 280 in total then you may stand a chance.
This issue of "spending more than 2 months salaries" is usually when the applicant doesn't have much money as account balance, but if the applicant has substantial amount of verifiable sum in his account, he can actually get the visa even if the cost of the trip will take 10 months salaries: there are people who have 5 million in their account even though they earn 80k monthly

Hi justwise,

Well, you are absolutely right. But for me to be able to cross the border, spent a night and exited without staying back. Anyway what would you advice on my case on how I would be issued a visa again? I was a victim of a travel agent the landed me on 320, even tho back then I wrote to the embassy and got a reply that I can apply whenever I wish to do so but if the Eco isn't convinced I will be refused under paragraph 320 again.

Thank you
It is unwise to stubbornly apply for a visa knowing very well that you are banned for 10 years.
Now, this is how it works: Once you submit your application, and the moment they enter your name and DOB into their system, there will be a red allert with the warning that you have been banned, an Entry Clearance Officer does not have the power to proceed with your application as the computer system will not let him, therefore, it would take an Entry Clearance Manager to overrule it. So, your application would be automatically refused without any question

Hi @vicjustice @justwise and everyone in the house. I was banned for 10years in 2008, last month on my way to US via British airways my connecting flight departed before my arrival, so British airways arranged accommodation for me in london and scheduled me for a flight the following day. To my surprise the immigration just asked me a few questions,stamped my passport and said welcome to london. My question here is does that entry waives my 10yrs ban? Can I apply for a visa now? Or does the ban still stands?

Thank you
As a person traveling via a UK transit, there will be no red flag on your name and data since your ban is in relation to visa application, therefore, the immigration officer (at the airport) probably did not make extensive check of your record: in your situation, they are more interested in ensuring that you do not pose any threat.

I totally agree with u, her body, her clothes will be covered with the hair,sweat and other kinds of DNA of her evil killers, I am pretty sure under her fingernails there will be debris of skin and tissue from her killers, by just tracing her last whereabouts and examining the people and property(there is footprints, DNA on cups, spoons, traces of fabric of her clothes e.tc) she was last seen with and at, any competnet police force must be able to catch her killers, if she was dumped then it follows that a vehicle was used, look at the list of suspects and acquaintances, how many of them have access to a car, draw up a list, examine these vehicles, it will be full of scientific evidence, normally in a case like this the boyfriend (he should be examined for scraches to the arms, face and body) or whoever she had been dating or seeing is at the top of the list, the police should interview her friends, her neighbours, they should build a picture of what happened prior to her discovery
MY condolences to her family and friends
I'm glad you absolutely got it right, you analysis suggests to me that you're either abroad or you know how it is done in advanced countries: unlike those who mocked me for saying that the killer can not get away with this sort of murder.

Tnx for ur response bros .. I dont think my expenses for the trip can take more than 250k . Since my cousin going to host me over there , in terms of accomodation, feeding all are guaranteed .
I am positive that you will be refused the visa with this budget. Flight ticket alone will exhaust that amount...

hello guys, good job to you all, i'm a new user, i wish i had found out this forum earlier.. i have been reading from page 1 and still reading, but please i have some questions,
i have been recently refused a uk visa and i want to reapply. i found out that the box for reason for refusal is not enough to input the reason, please how do i go about it?
i also intend to attach a letter to address the previous reasons for my refusal, is there a particular format for this?.


I have a letter from my employer adressed to the ECO, british high commission, i hope that is the right address.

looking forward to your replies. God bless

thank you very much for your response, vicjustice, will do just that. i hope i can type the additional letter or should it be hand written?
One more thing please, the issue of the space given for reason for previous refusal, i was refused for not showing evidence of strong social and economic ties to Nigeria, and something about the cost of the trip being more than 3 times my monthly salary. the space provided is not enough to input these, please how should i go about it?
... thank you once again.
hercules906:
thanks a lot for taking time to write d lengthy reply... yes you are right i am a novice in this matter oh..lol
considering that i was refused just last month, and that i intend to address the 2 reasons for the refusal in the additional note, i dont think i'm allowed to write 'i cant recall' in the box. lol

i just thought i should pick the reasons one by one and explain why i think the ECO dat first refused me erred in reasoning
. i am also attaching a letter of leave from my employer which i didnt include in ny previous application. i hope that will serve as an evidence of ties to nigeria.
looking forward to your response, God bless.
I did not suggest that you write "i can't recall", i only said it is ok if someone writes that: it is not an infraction so, you can't be refused a visa because you can't remember the reasons for previous refusals.
Yes, the letter will be of help.

I know that many murder cases are left unsolved due to the inefficient and poor handling of the investigation , that is why i said "With a good team of forensic experts, a good medical team, a good police investigative team and a good cooperation from the public, there is no way, and i mean, no way that the culprit(s) will get away with this murder."

You can either type or hand-write the information, but if you chose to hand-write it, make sure your writing is legible.
Look, the question is only inspectional, they do not really need the information, they already know the reasons why your previous applications were refused, after-all, they were the one who refused them in the first place: so, i do not recommend that you write to much details regarding the purpose that you were refused, just KISS the script. KISS means: Keep It Short and Simple.
Note: You bother yourself about this particular issue because, you are a novice in this matter, the embassy is only using this very question to interogate naive applicants, you are not obliged to begin to dig out these information: it is very ok to write "I can't recall"

You can use additional paper, just write your reference number on the sheet and attach it to the printed form. There is no special format for this letter provided it is written with standard spellings.
Addressing the letter to the ECO is ok, but ensure that you deliver it by hand (not by post) along with your other documents

1) CAC ( notarized copy)
2) Company Sales Invoice and cutomer ledger
3)Letter of Franchise from Oando
4)Income Tax clearance
5) PAYE receipts for the last three months.
6) Company bank statement
7) Reference letter from Bank

Insurance Policy Documents
Tour itinerary and payment receipt from tour company
Cetificate of Occupancy
deed of agreements of Lands
National ID card
Travel Insurance
Flight reservation
Marriage certificate
Birth certificate of members of family (wife and 2 kids)

Challenges
In the section that states, Institution you will be visiting in Canada. is it alright to fill in the Tour companys details?
Applicants have been refused a study permit about 8 to 9 years ago but do not remember the specific year ( passport lost to thieves), is it alright to just say,was refused without stating the year of refusal?
Applicants has 2 step siblings in Canada Studying but do not have any details about their schools or what course they are taking ( polygamous family things)

Please advise.
It would be unreasonable for me to advice or suggest anything much based on your post alone as i don't know your personal situation or circumstances to work with especially regarding your occupation whether you are a employee or self-employed.
However, i find some of the mentioned documents to be irrelevant.
Observe the highlighted lines.

I read comments like this when age of senior citizens are mentioned. Don't be so sure that there was/is no record. And don't think our people have not been keeping records even in the early 1900s.

I didn't suggest that the age is not real, i was only concerned about the unfortunate circumstance that the ages of most Nigerians can not be verified as there is inefficient recording system, and no centralized database in the country.

The chance of you getting a visa under your dad's sponsorship is very slim.
Well, as for your numerous bank statements, it won't matter how many they are, what counts is the amount of money that is available for you: Money Lodgement is bad.
