Please yall, wanted your opinion or something, i was denied a Canada visa last 2 years because i applied late, and the passport wasnt stamped. Must i indicate that on this application because i planned to ignore it ooh considering how this people deny for flimsy excuses.
Also, do they really inquire from other embassies about status of an applicants visa history when there is no cause for it? Does the UKBA really do such enquires?
Thanks once again

daybell007: please I need your assistance about these. My company is sponsoring me for study visa and all document to attest the sponsorship was also given to me but was given a post dated cheque to confirm that the money in the company's is meant for my use. Please can a post dated cheque be used as a means of proof of support?please I need your response as soon as possible

esosa4real: Good day people, i opened a topic, no one replied, so i post this here:
I would appreciate the input of justwise, darkchild, vicjustice, londoncool and all travel experts on this.
Recently, i was given the impression by some colleagues who work in the business sector that Medical Doctors are no longer given that privilege and special preference as regards uk visa applications.
They claim they "Business men" even stand better chances getting visas due to their High monthly cash inflows and outflows, which of course i know is an important factor, and having researched the uk guidelines thread, i happen to see that a couple of doctors were actually denied on "low financial history" grounds.
I am an intern working in a Federal teaching hospital and was planning to attend a medical conference in Norwich come September. I might not have a robust income but my payslips though not a constant figure, show an average of at least N150,000.
So do i stand a chance of getting a UK visa with that financial history? My current balance is N600,000
Well as regards UK-ties, i have a cousin there but not going to live with her, since am attending a conference
About my Nigerian ties, well i am still working as an intern with an appointment letter showing a 1year contract that would end by October 28 2014.
My travel history is sparse, been to India in 2010 for a medical conference (WHO group). Also been to ghana few months ago while on leave.
So this time am travelling for a 2 day medical conference which i have paid for and have made both Hotel and flight reservations.
Also, already filling my Visa form and have stipulated that i plan to stay in UK for just 7 days because that's the allocated leave of absence i have.
SO my brothers and sisters what are my chances really? Would they consider me as a practicing Medical practitioner? or concentrate more on my financial history? what are the real requirements apart from what i already know?

daybell007: Thanks for your response to my previous question.I intend submitting my application fo study visa at the Italian embassy but I am confused/need clarification on it
I av BN nominated by the company I worked that they are going to sponsor me and cater for all my maintenace in Italy nd I av BN given a letter to confirm that nd as well company's account statement.the issue is nw d balance on d statement as at 14th of July is around 10m bt I av BN given appointment for submisson on 25th July.my fear now is that since it s a company account the balance might have reduced durn my submission and confirmation might be done on the account.pls kindly advise me as I am out of time nw.Pls

Godwilling: HELLO my people hope everyone is doing well .. please can anyone answer this question below. I saw it in the USA student section but no answer was given as am in a similar situation am wondering whether anyone can help answer this please. am new here so pardon any mistake I might have made in posting this.
Hi, fellow nairalanders, i need your assistance and input concerning my situation. I started my undergrad in the UK but missed my renewal date and tried to appeal it for over a year to no avail. I finally decided to come back to nigeria voluntarily and then transfer to the US this year. I applied for my student visa and then got rejected due to a silly error i made in filling my ds-160 - where it asked if you have any family in the us, i answered 'yes'. I truly don't have any family in the US. I guess that was the reason for my rejection because she didnt ask for any of my supporting documents. So here are my questions:
1. Would my previous overstayer status in the uk affect my entry into the us?
2. How do i prove that i have no ties in the us without getting done for misrepresentation?
3. How do i prove my ties at home with my family? (My father, who lives in nigeria is my sponsor)
4. Will my passport get stamped or my name get flagged if i get rejected a second time?

LondonCool: Greetings everyone!!

penfold: @vicjustice
Loooong time, I can see you've been keeping up the good work...Kudos
I'm sure you'll feel like conking me for this question, but I'll still ask sha..
I'm not so conversant with US Visa requirements again, pls do they take the concept of 'cash lodgement' the same way our darling UKBA takes it too,or do they have a different set of rules??
I know it's a rookie question but pls oblige me...

d2ddayo: good day, please i just want to ask this question, i was denied irish visa in 2010 after 5 different irish visas granted. reasons given were flimsy excuses. nways afterwards i had applied twice to schengen states visa which i was granted. i intend to renew my schengen again this august and afterwards apply for a uk visit visa. i want to know, what is the possibility of being granted and used without defaulting any immigration rule. all necessary documentations would be provided with a balance of bout 500hk. i am still single and never applied for a uk visa before except back when i was a young lad when my parents took me down. the major reason for my irish refusal was that the VO said i didnt disclose that my dad resides in ireland.... but the truth is that my dad was away when i was 12yrs and it was my stepfather who had been the one sponsoring all my trips from way back 2006 while i was in school. now i really want to apply for this countries by HIS grace, and i know the uk embassy will also ask if ever denied a visa within the last five years or so which i intend to state my reason. please i just want your candid advice on this. thank you.

d2ddayo: all what am saying is that i intend to apply for a uk visa and my last application to ireland was denied. the EO said i didnt write that my dad resides in ireland. well my biological father is in ireland but my stepdad stays in nigeria who had been the one sponsoring all my up keep, travel trips and all for 18 yrs before three years ago i and my dad reunited. i had 5 irish visas granted before the last one and afterwards ve collected 2 schengen visas and i intend to renew it by august before facing uk. so now whats ur advice?
