[quote author=dotcom_na_me_na_me]No no, not this one, i was thought u were referring to this one https://www.nairaland.com/823869/uk-visa-visa-appeal-process-part2/59

I think u sorted that out for me before...

Thanks for your efforts

I just want to know if a tourist visa applicant can use the same Point Based System (PBS) application form for Administrative Review of a refusal of an entry clearance? Thats all.

Thanks[/quote]Why would anyone use the point-based system for applying for a tourist visa?
That alone is a dead give-away that the applicant's true intention is not tourism but to migrate

[quote author=dotcom_na_me_na_me]Yes Vicjustice, i got the answer from another thread entirely. But i later discover that there is Point Based System on the Administrative Review form, so i would like to know if one can use the form for administrative review for a refusal of tourist visit visa.

Thank you.[/quote]I'm curious to know the "entirely different thread" in which you got the answer, I am interested because it took me a lot of efforts to address your query below:

[quote author=dotcom_na_me_na_me]Vicjustice, pls what do you think a friend can do in this case.

A friend was granted UK visa 6 month in 2012 September. In her application she stated she will spend 2 weeks and that she will stay in a hotel. She also claim she did not have relative and does not know anyone in the UK.

When she visited the UK she did not stay at the hotel but with another friend who is working full time and has residency and she spent 6 weeks with her instead of the 2 weeks she told them at the embassy during her first application.

She applied for renewal she was refused on this basis. She told them that since her visa is valid for 6 month she decided to spend more than 2 weeks, but she did not mention where she stay since they did not ask where she stayed for the 6 weeks. So the renewal application was refused.

She use her uncle as sponsor and she provided a landed property on her name, and she has a child in 9ja.

She reapply again and still she was refused and on the basis that she did not provided original school Id.card and letter from school did not clear.

She corrected it and reapply for the third time, they refused her again, they said because she stated in ehr first application that she will be spending 2 weeks but she spend 6 weeks, they said how did she survived the 6 weeks, indirectly where she stayed for he 6 weeks.

I wonder why where she stayed must be questioned since she did not overstay her visa?


Can she reapply or go for Administrative review?

I as thinking if she go for administrative review she wont be allowed to provide new document, and i believe that if she has to go for administrative review i think letter from the friend that accommodated her for the two weeks is needed and her immigration status and proof of what she's doing in the UK. Now she's saying she met the friend at airport when she was about to go to her hotel in London and her friend decided to accommodate her for 2 weeks and when the 2 weeks completed she herself decided to spend more than 6 weeks and her friend was happy with it.

What do you think she can at this stage?

Thank you[/quote]

white owl: Pure lover, just ping me 2a9b05a8!
Real hook up things!

At least, put your pic in your profile so that interested person may see what you look like. Doesn't that make sense?

Fulaman198: I am a Northerner I don't add English to my language. I come from the Fulani ethnic group. We are proud of our tradition. English is my third language

So, what do you call INTERNET in Fulani language? What is a Fulani word for VISA? How about TECHNOLOGY, Car-PLUG, LASER, HYDROGEN, NUCLEAR, ATOMIC, ENDOSCOPE etc?

By the way, are they still beating gongs or ringing bells during their active hours?

wishlolia: www.babefishing.com has a new facelift, looking better and better. Good job going on there

I trust the admin of babefishing.com, she never ceases to make improvement: it even has a avenues for members to create blog, vlog and picture gallary

wishlolia:

I'm impressed that you also know it's being used wrongly, i would have thought you too use it that way

wishlolia: I share your opinion.
Maybe the guy's browsing credit is out?

Well, this thread wasn't started because of him, so let let's let him be

wishlolia: How would a white person who happens to have no dealings whatsoever with a Nigerian know anything about pidgin english let alone to try and speak it?

I think we're saying the same thing

wishlolia: Evolution is a religion on its own. To me, it is an absolute lie theory

I agree with you, it is a religion for those who want to suppress the of evidence of creation in their conscience

[quote author=dotcom_na_me_na_me]Can someone pls help with the below question?

Must an applicant complete the PBS form for the Administrative Review of a general visit eg. tourist visit refusal? or the Administrative Review application must be in writing separately without using the PBS Administrative Review form?

Thank you.[/quote]You asked me a question (yesterday) and i spent a great deal of time answering and providing explanations, now you're asking an entirely different question showing no acknowledgement to our previous correspondence. Are you tthrough with previous issue?

wishlolia: This is not the dating site, go to www.babefishing.com and look for a lover there

Well done. More of that

wishlolia: That's true, but armed robbers that can rob a bank will not be deterred by such poorly organised vigilante

Yeah, but at least, they can make some noises even if it means shooting into the sky in order to announce their presence

wishlolia: My friend, you speak better english than your mother tongue, every educated Nigerian speaks better english than his own language. Get that right

Indeed, i will bet my money that he can't speak his language without adding English words, who can translate the word INTERNET in his own language?

nickson03: Sorry, my wife is in nigeria and she will be aplying from lagos embassy italy. Pls advice if she will need to provide that requirement as her personnal document. Like i said i have do some research on the internet there is no such requirement on Eu national family member accept my personnel document as her husband who is the sponsor to provide evidence that show i am residing in italy and exercising my Eu treaty right by been self employe in the state.

You should have stated that your wife is in Nigeria.
Well, she doesn't need to present any document except her own national passport and birth cirtificate, every other document and financial sponsorship details must come from you

nickson03: Good morning everyone, pls advice me. I have just receive text from a friend contain italy visiting requirement. But what i do not understand is that on the text my friend said my wife will need to provide(1) 6months bank statement (2) payslips (3) health insurance (4) employment letter (5) visa fee. Pls can anyone advice me on this?. Becos i am a british citizen and my son british and i am living and working in italy exercising my EU treaty right becos i understand very well that if an EU national live and work in an Eu country there is free movement for the family member of EU national who is exercising the treaty right. But it since to me my friend does not have understanding of EU national requirement. To what i know is that if i aply for italy vissa for my wife she will be issue with EEA family permit visa becos i reside and work there. Pls can you advice if my wife will need sure document from herself? It could am wrong pls advice?

If your wife is holding a UK residence permit that was issued for reason of her marriage to you, then, she DOES NOT need a visa to enter any Schengen country provided that she is travelling with you, or that she is travelling to meet/join you in the Schengen country.
But if her residence permit does not indicate her being a spouse of an EU citizen, then she is required to present her marriage certificate to the airline and she will be allowed to travel with you or to meet you: She needs to be at the check-in desk early to allow the airline staff enough time to make inquiry and verify your situation and location... She can visit you in Italy without a visa, but the Italian immigration officers would need to be assured that you are already in the country, a simple phone-call is sufficient to verify your presence.
If you want to save the stress, you can return to the UK and then travel with her to Italy, and she will have the same privilege with an EU citizen and be treated as such.
The Republic of Ireland and the UK are the only countries that require a visa from an EU spouse, and the visa (bearing the Eu Treaty Rights remark) is issued free of charge

superior1: @ Vicjustice
Do you know if schengene countries accept documents (academics) legalised by the embassy of a different schengene country?


Thanks

An Apostile is a special seal (in the form of Stamp or a Sticker) carrying the authorization of the ministry of foreign affair of an EU state, it is normally endorsed in the reverse side of a document as a seal of authentication making the document tenderable in every EU member state: this regulation was instituted by EU member states in the Hague convention.
Now, in order to use any document that is issued by an EU member state in another EU country, that document must be endorsed with apostile, and any document that carries apostile is recognised in every EU country

Or are you talking about a Nigerian document that has been legalised by a Schengen embassy, and you intend to use the document in another Schengen country?
If that is what you mean, there should be no problem because, any documentation that passes through, and is certified by a Schengen country is valid in every Schengen country

Thank you[/quote]Except her previous visa carried a remark that explicitly stated the number of days that she was allowed to stay in the country, in that case, her subsequent refusals are as results from the violations of the visa conditions: and this violation attracts a temporal ban.
But if the visa was issued with the standard terms and conditions, then she wasn't refused those subsequent visas because she stayed in the UK for more than (the declared) two weeks since in reality, she had not violated any rules nor did she breach her visa conditions by staying for six weeks. She was refused the visa because, she had not convincingly explained why she stayed in the UK for that long and what she was doing during the time; therefore, in absence of such explanation, the visa officers have reasons to suspect her intentions since they were not satisfied of her previous activities whilst in the UK.
Change of circumstance is an acceptable reason to stay in a country for longer than intended, but yet, embassy and Immigration officers reserve the rights to question the circumstance: Know that a Visa Officer works with a person's budget and measures it with the person's income and then weighs it with the balance in the person's account before making a decision. So, if an applicant who is not too rich is applying for a visa with the intention to stay (let's say) one week, the visa officer might consider approving the application, but if the person eventually stayed for (let's say) four weeks, it is reasonable for the visa officer to want to know what the person was doing in the UK with insufficient fund, this will definitely call for an investigation.

Another reason for her application refusal is the use of (uncle) sponsor who seemingly does not stand to profit anything by her leisure travel to the UK.

nickson03: Helo my people pls does anyone have an ideal about italy visa process. I am british citizen and my son is british citizen, i iam living in italy and exercise my EU treaty right by been self employer. The reason why i move to italy is becos of the 18600pounds. Pls i would like to know as a british (EU national) if am required to legalise our marriage certificate and i also understand that people do pay N110,000 to italy embassy for a lawyer to verify the marriage. I understand as an Eu national exercising thier EU treaty right there is a free movement for EU family member like spouse. Pls does anyone know if i will be paying That amount to italy embassy? becos i have check the EU treaty right for free movement there is no such requirement.

Is your marriage certificate from the UK or from Nigerian?
If it is from the UK, you don't need to "legalise" it, all you need to do is to have it endorsed with apostile and that will make it a valid tender in every EU state. But if it is from Nigeria, you have to also get it endorsed with the certificate of authentication from the ministry of foreign affair or a Nigerian Embassy before it can be used for international purpose: but i am not sure of the N100.000 fee or whether the fee is particular to the embassy of Italy

budwizer: Good day, my people. i am a first timer on this thread. i need some advice on the uk visa application. i intend to travel with my wife and infant son sometime in april next year for tourism, about 10 nights. we intend to stay in an hotel and apartment all through.none of us has been to the uk before. i am not a frequent traveler,just been to dubai twice with my wife in the last 3 years. my wife on the other hand has been to germany and poland on several business trips, but all her EU travel history is on her old passport. (she just renewed/changed to a fresh one due to her new marital name)
...would like to know if i should include the old one to show her travel history
...also i have a list of documents to send along, i want to be sure i have not omitted anything important, they include
1) two separate 6 months statement of account for each of us showing our income (total balance of about 1.5m naira)
2) two separate letters of identification from respective employees here in naija
3) two separate payslips to back up each account
4) hotel reservation from booking.com, with confirmation email and possibly a part payment
5) flight reservation (though not confirmed)
6) itenary showing the places we would love to visit in the uk
7) marriage certificate
birth certificate for my son
9)all 3 passports
please your feedback, suggestions and advice would be highly appreciated.

Your "total balance of N1.5m" doesn't look too great for an all family 10 days trip to the UK, that would most likely result in a refusal.
What will you live on after the trip, and what would you return home for if you have no money to sustain you in Nigeria?
I'm sorry if my opinion disappoints you.

babyspice: I would just like to add that if an invitation is made out to his wife its ok because i was in the same situation a few years ago. I was NOT employed at the time but my hubby was able to prove in our application that he would be able to foot the entire bill and proved we had ties to the UK. Even though i have family in the UK and on paper i would have been considered a flight risk. The onus is on the main Applicant to furnish enough genuine evidence that he has a stable, consistent and sustainable income to make the trip and for normal living expenses.

I meant "individual" visa as I highlighted with brackets: you need to be in an employment for at least one year in order to be eligible for (self sponsored) visa application.
And of course it is acceptable if your spouse is your sponsor

kdf3449: Thanks alot for your advise,its so much appreciated. I will work on getting my C of O as i have been advised it will be of great help too. I will come back to update the house when i start the process,for now,i will work on my statement of account and the C Of O. But meanwhile Bro, how long should i say my vacation is for? Since 3 months sounds too long

PhysicsQED: Ireland used to have a lot of fake Universities that gave out worthless, fake degrees for a small fee. The original 419ers. Or maybe that's the Spaniards, with their "Spanish Letters."



That's all for now.

When you end a comment with "that is all for now", it means that there would be more to come so, one would expect you to resume from where you stopped

wishlolia: so, because she said just one word in pidgin English you are impressed? I know white women who communicate perfectly with it, even there are those who speak our native languages

Well, at least, she even tried to say a word in pidgin, most white people won't even like to try

It is on the first page, i just checked it

Such a "brilliant artist" you mean.
So, how about finding him love in www.babefishing.com?

wishlolia: The word "flirting" does not go well with many people in Nigeria, they misunderstand it to mean "sleeping around" with men.

Another embarrassing one is the Nigerian understanding and usage of the word ROMANCE
