asiwaju: Dear brothers/sisters.

Please has anybody fly Turkish Airline to Nigeria?(experience,service etc).

Thank you all in Advance.

Asiwaju.

justwise: I totally understand where you are coming from, not stating that she was married in her application was a serious mistake and the ECO banned her which is not out of place.

If she can prove the legitimate of her marriage, proof of communication between her and her husband, met the financial requirement and come clean about her previous immigration offense(s) then she has a good chance of getting a visa, even 'if' the ECO refused her because of the previous offense...she will get right of appeal and its a winnable case.

demifunke: wao that is serious even when a child is involve .it was not intentional . i had the ban after the marriage, Is the child not a prove that we are married and the relationship still exist?

demifunke: @ justwise and vicjustice !!!!!Oh my God am just a bit confuse @ this junction. My hubby try to get his uk lawyer involve in the case but the lawyer said we cant win the case even when applying for the spousal visa since i have a ban base on deception - that i filled single while i was married and didn't disclose i was pregnant when applying for the visit visa. said i will be refuse base on 320(7c) or something not sure . its quite confusing and dont know what to do .please house kindly assist .

Signal81telecom: Thanks bro. Not the end of the road. i was only going to spend my hard earn cash in the
UK.

I'll give US a try, no need advising me. I'm going with 100% genuine documents. If they approve, fine, if not,business continues.

I have 5months left on my passport for it to expire, knowing fully well i can't apply with that, do i get another passport, or wait for it to expire in 5months time before i can apply for another. Please advise.

Signal81telecom: Thanks vjcjustice. Could you please explain further how to confirm if one has been ban.

In my second application, the decision was; ECO was not satisfied that the cost of the trip commensurate with my economic circumstances. ECO mentioned i had a wife and two kids to support.

Please advice what i should do as i intend to reapply this week.

Also please explain the below as it was included in both applications.

"Your right of appeal is limited to the grounds referred to in section 84(i)(c) of the National Immigration and Asylum Act 2002"


It doesn't look to me as a ban. No doubt i have sinned, but now i am going pure.

isabeth: My husband is Spanish citizen,but he does not know which application form I should fill here in Nigeria,please application form is for EU treaty rights
Thanks

Signal81telecom: My case is bit complicated. Two applications were rejected in two months. June and August 2012 to be precise.

I will not withhold any information. The two applications were false representation of my true self. Occupation and salary account were forged. But i was lucky enough to escape 10years ban.

Eco's decision/reasons for refusal

(a)"Closing balance is equivalent to more than 7months income. Not satisfied that the statement is true reflection of your financial circumstances"

(b) "i am not satisfied that the cost of this trip commensurate with your economic circumstances"

Truth is that i have genuine accounts both current and dom with enough funds, but i was advised by this agent and for the fear of having lump sums deposited several times i went with the agent advice. I have been doing business since 2005 when i graduated from uni., i own a big studio which folded up due to poor management, since then i have diversify into communication business, i sell gsm mobile phone which i buy directly from dubai and usa, also i have incorporated my company but hitherto it has no bank account. Just 2months old.

I intend to reapply in few weeks with my original documents, bank statement et al. Problem is how to convince the Eco with my current and dom account which have lump sums. I have some invoice from the warehouses i do business with both on dubai and usa. I have my wedding certificate, kids birth certs,

In the previous applications i used my bank statement of account (original) and salary account (fake) Only the fake was made reference of.

Now i intend to use the same original bank statement and dom account statement, but will write a cover letter that i have resigned my appointment with the forged company i used in previous applications. LOL

Please advise. I beg una

isabeth: Good day house,
Please I need your advice,my husband is an EEU citizen but he reside in the UK with a good job,have applied for family visa twice which was denied,please I want to join him in the UK which form will I fill - family permit form(VAT5) or family settlement form(VAT4)
Secondly is the family permit or family settlement application fee free during submission at d embassy.thanks

zill: Thanks vicjustice. It seems you don't want to talk much.

gabrielG: @VicJustice and @Justwise Thanks alot for your amazing response i have considered all that you have said. But from my earlier post, Do you reckon Plan A or Plan B would be better off?

gabrielG: Thank you for the those threads, they were very helpful, but none of them gave me an insight of a possible minimum financial amount requirement, as some people with both large and small account balance but met other requirements were denied. Here is my case:

Mom and Brother below 18, been invited for my Graduation, She will go with the following:
From Me:
Copy of Passport Data page and Visa copies.
Invitation for graduation with University letters (stating my academic details and 2 tickets for them as my guest in the graduation)
My Birth certificate (to prove she is my mom)
Hotel Reservation for the 2 of them
From Her:
Her Business name registration documents (Officially registered in February 2013, but has been in existence as a sole trader since 2012)
Her Saving account, with constant flow of funds since Jan 2012 (she has been using it for her business) of about 300K to 500K Naira turn over. Sometimes 800K balance sometime 250K
Company account (I have advised her to open one in her business name, and proceed with business transactions on that account from tomorrow till June when she shall do the application, this will mean she will have 2 to 3 months company account NOT 6 months)
Maybe Tax Documents if she can pay her taxes and obtain one *
Receipts and Invoice of ordered Goods since 2012 till date.
My Brothers Passport and his birth certificate (he is a minor so no other paper work for him, just birth certificate to prove it is his mom)

But on the other note, i am thinking of plan B (A bit complicated):
From Me:
Copy of Passport Data page and Visa copies.
Invitation for graduation with University letters (stating my academic details and 2 tickets for them as my guest in the graduation)
My Birth certificate (to prove she is my mom)
Hotel Reservation for the 2 of them
My Nigerian Saving bank statement, normal cash flow , Balance never gone below 1.8 Mil
My Company documents in Nigeria to prove how i get the money. NO COMPANY ACCOUNT FROM ME.
A Letter stating i intend to support her if the need be, even though she can support herself.
From Her:
Her Business name registration documents (Registered in February 2013, but has been in existence as a sole trader since 2012)
Her Saving account, with constant flow of funds since Jan 2012 (she has been using it for her business) of about 300K to 500K Naira turn over. Sometimes 800K balance sometime 250K
Receipts and Invoice of ordered Goods since 2012 till date.
My Brothers Passport and his birth certificate (he is a minor so no other paper work for him, just birth certificate to prove it is his mom)

I AM VERY SORRY FOR THIS LONG POST, BUT YOU MUST HAVE READ MORE POSTS THAN ME TO UNDERSTAND BETTER, KINDLY ADVICE FOR EITHER PLAN A OR PLAN B. I WOULD NOT HAVE ASKED THIS LENGTHY QUESTION IF I KNEW A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT THAT COULD BE CONSIDERED ENOUGH FOR ONE ADULT AND A DEPENDANT WHO INTEND TO VISIT THE UK.

gabrielG: Thanks for the reply Justwise, It's for my Mom and younger brother who is below 18. She is a business woman who runs a shop and will be sponsoring herself. I intend to send my Passport copy with Valid Student Visa page, Birth Certificate, Letter from my School to confirm my Graduation dates. I believe she can provide her bank statement, hotel reservations which i will make on her behalf. Please what is the current state of things? Any minimum financial obligation or specific set of documents that works?

Cheers M8

gabrieli: It is stated in French visa requirement as follows:

Confirmed reservation of return flight ticket(s). If applicable, detailed itinerary clearly showing the name of all visited countries and the dates of stay

robinsonemeka: Thanx a lot, starting out right away...

robinsonemeka: Ok, thanx... I have a sample of an invitation letter but when done, does it need a stamp or any additional thing?

robinsonemeka: Hi, this is my first time here and I would really appreciate answers... I have a girlfriend whom is young and wanting to visit nigeria really son for our wedding arrangements. Please, I would love to know what she would need in details. Like what kind of visa does she need, how much must she have in her account for visa approval and any other additional info, pleae

tkaylove: Please I need anyone with a valid response to this post. May GOD Bless U all. My Question is: Is Ireland(Republic Of Ireland) Linked to Uk in anyway when granting of Visa to the Uk or to Ireland. Do They work hand in hand? Let's say Someone whose Visa had been revoked in Ireland due to Insufficient funds makes an appeal of the decision but hasn't gotten back any response then decided to apply for a Uk visa in the meantime. Do U suppose the Uk Visa would be granted on the basis of the Ireland Visa initially granted and revoked and still awaiting a final decision? Thanks

gabrieli: Thanks for ur advise and guidance, pls one more question on the issue of confirmed flight reservation and hotel booking.because of the fear of using forged reservations unknowingly, I have been trying to book them myself. What do they mean by confirmed flight reservation? since I am not expected to pay for flight tickets until I get the visa and knowing fully well that the will automatically cancel all reservation if payment is not made after certain hours after booking.Also, is booking through sites like wakanow.com acceptable?

As for the hotel booking, I have gotten to the stage of paying deposit which I plan to pay even with cancellation insurance fee,but I just hope my GT bank debit mastercard is acceptable.

jprocdanaira: Thanks for the recommendation, I am familiar with what tax does to the society during my two years oversea. I already got my Personal Income Tax clearance for the year 2012, in January this year. I paid a quarter of a million as tax and it covers me till December 2013.

jprocdanaira: Hello people, I kindly need your critical advice on my situation to ensure success in my application. I am a self employed married woman with a 5yr old son. I intend to sponsor myself for a UK tourist visa.

Firstly, my husband is a businessman mostly overseas and all supporting documents I can obtain from him will be foreign, hence I decide to sponsor myself using my personal account in a bid not to attract questions on who will take care of my son when I am away for 2weeks since he will be home when I make the trip. Your advice and take on this.

Also, is there any negative impact in filling 4.14 of VAF1A that my spouse lives with us in the same address and not providing any supporting document from him for the application?

Secondly, I will like to discuss my personal bank statement. I am an event person, and started the business February 2012 after a two year postgraduate studies outside the country. I had a smooth start with a 1.8m turnover for the year 2012. I got my personal tax clearance with respect to this in January 2013. The issue with my account statement is that most clients prefer to pay cash for my services but I insisted that any payment above 200k should be to my personal savings account.

Due to this, if I am going to produce a 6 month statement starting from Oct 2012 to March 2013, the balance brought forward was 7.3m (pls note this). I withdrew 4.5m (early Oct) to purchase a van in the US and other party rental materials I bought to boost my event services ( I have the van's bill of laden which I later cleared in Nov 2012, with van pic and pic of the rental equipment too). My balance went to 2.7m which was followed by consistent ATM withdrawals for over a month.

Early Nov, I got a deposit of 3.5m for an event job out of which I had to withdraw 2.3m to execute the job leaving my bank balance to be 3.4m. After this, I had a consistent ATM withdrawal till the beginning of January 2013 with just a couple of bulk withdrawal for tithes and pledges. from Jan to march, had just a couple of deposits for jobs (520k & 200k), and after consistent ATM and cash withdrawals for maintenance of business outfit which prepares me for rest of the year, I am left with a balance of 1.4m. Do I have a suitable account statement to apply for a UK tourist visa? Your candid advice is needed.

How do I also calculate my monthly income after tax in this situation where income is not constant? Or will it be logical to use my income on my personal Income Tax clearance for 2012 to give an average? Using the average of the total income after tax for 2012 as stated in my tax clearance, my monthly income will be 134k, is it suitable?

I look forward to your critical assessment of my situation.

jprocdanaira: Thank you Vicjustice for the enlightenment.

Due to my monthly income which is not constant being self employed, will it be logical to use the average annual income on my personal Income Tax clearance for 2012 as my present monthly income after tax?
