Hello house Please help? We want to apply for tourist visa. I do have a number of questions. I have read nearly every page of this topic some of my questions have been answered. N thank you to all for your contributions n patience. How much on average would one spend on hotel accommodation so that the ECO dont raise questions or eyebrows. Like what percentage of your income or Savings. Spending ten days in london Can I book at budget hotel n then once I get visa book at a more expensive one? Do they check or confirm which hotel Is it better in terms of logistics n sightseeing to be within central London unlike staying out of London and having to commute 30 plus minutes to get into London. We would rather book a holiday apartment, think they are more flexible n not to mention cheaper than hotels, would the ECO frawn upon that. Our itinerary is just in London Hoping to visit other cities on other visits without packing everything in one trip. Is this ok for a tourist visa? Thank you |

Hello all, Great and helpful contributions by all.Thanks.

I changed work 5 months ago.Though with same salary as the last,but the location is more comfortable.Do i make this known in a seperate explanation,or do i just submit my new company's employment letter?Does the newness of the job(5 months) count against me? 2ndly,i am applying this time with my wife,do we submit a package or submit seperately?she's got her own job too but i am responsible for the whole trip financially I await all helpful contributions please. Thanks in advance |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by bamangatuk: 6:45pm On Jul 21, 2011 |
Fogman: Been waiting over 3 months for settlement Visa. Not too relevant, but I believe that the visa processing times have been increasing steadily over the last 3 months as I've noted from http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/processingtimes check your own centre and category. |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by Pamperme: 5:51pm On Jul 22, 2011 |
@ Justwise and Omo Tier 1 i asked earlier in the post about the form my friend (who wanted to apply for his Msc and his CAS was issued before April 2011) should fill. You advised that he should use the April 2011 form and write English language test. He didnt because he said it was expressly stated at UKBA website which form to use and there is no requirement for english language test in the form. His Study Visa came out today anyway! i just want to advise people to follow the instructions carefully because am sure he would have been refused for using a wrong form, if he had used the new form. Thanks. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 7:07pm On Jul 22, 2011 |
Pamperme:Congrat to your friend. Your friend got the visa cos he met the requirements not cos he did not use April form. I asked your friend to use April cos u said he was given CAS before April, i did not advice your friend to write English language test for Msc course. Since you knew the requirements, why then did u come here to ask for advice? You came back now to tell pple that i gave you wrong advice? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by damola1: 7:41pm On Jul 22, 2011 |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by vgbg88: 8:11pm On Jul 22, 2011 |
hi guys no one is trying to help me and i feel realy bad bout it, i thot people who know better will atleast suggest someting, you all have left my heart broken since morning, it has simply thought me a lesson not to rely on any one or anything, |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 8:51pm On Jul 22, 2011 |
vgbg88: Don't take it that way, i saw somebody answering ur questions b4 and i thought u got the answered to ur question then. Let me read ur post again. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 9:10pm On Jul 22, 2011 |
vgbg88: Are u still a student in Nigeria now? If yes then u need to get a letter from ur school, that letter will contain ur course details, ur progress report (could be ur last semester transcript). If you are using ur daddy's bank account then get a letter from him to proof that you are allowed to use that money and that the money will be available to u in the UK, include ur birth certificate. The most important thing here is to show tie to Nigeria,( proving to them that u be coming back to Nigeria if given a visa) You need to get documents from ur cousin in the UK as well if he is inviting u. IV, data page of her passport, tenancy agreement, payslip or bank statement, utility bills/mortgage. . etc |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 9:48pm On Jul 22, 2011 |
iiiyyyk:Yes they will accept IV from a graduating student, though it must be from her school, if your sister doesn't have a place for u then book a hotel, your bank statement will be ok since your hospital doesn't give payslip, don't forget to get a letter from your hospital too. Every other documents u listed there are ok. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by vgbg88: 6:12am On Jul 23, 2011 |
@justwise thanks i really want to know if my dad can make use of another acct stmt this time around, he used his current before, can i use his savings now |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 6:56am On Jul 23, 2011 |
vgbg88:You can use his savings account as long u get a letter from him and other documents i listed b4. Remember that as a student, getting a visa is harder than somebody who has a job, so u have to convince the ECO beyond every reasonable doubt. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by vgbg88: 7:16am On Jul 23, 2011 |
@just wise thanks a lot. Hmm am a postgraduate student and to be honest and wud be gainfully employed when am done by my dad and apart from my savings all i have is shares. What can i say to convince them and can some one stand as a guarantor that i'll come back--mayb like my cousin that is sending me invitation |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 8:02am On Jul 23, 2011 |
vgbg88: Its only about what u can say, its about showing hard evidences that u are just visiting and not intend to stay back in the UK. Look at all the reasons the ECO gave for refusing u visa in those 3 occasions and meet those requirements. E.g. ur daddy's source of income. . .address those points raised by the ECO, that is the best way to do it. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by worry246(m): 8:59am On Jul 23, 2011 |
Also try not to be desperate at your interview!. They are trained to look at people. If you are desperate or worried they may think you are not telling the truth. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by vgbg88: 9:05am On Jul 23, 2011 |
@justwise thankYou very much, they'll be fully addressed. my dad has a company and we will include the company papers and sorry pls does he have to use the company's letterhead cos we didn't use that before and its a private company. @worry 246 its a paper decision, no interview involved |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 9:12am On Jul 23, 2011 |
vgbg88: Yes using the company's letterhead is good. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by mass3002(m): 10:59am On Jul 23, 2011 |
Last week I got my Tier 1 dependent visa. My mother came back from UK on her holidays, I am her dependent. So i would like to go to UK to start my studies next month, but my mother goes back after 2 months(in September). Can I travel UK one month before she arrives there? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 11:14am On Jul 23, 2011 |
mass3002: As long as u are an adult then yes u can travel ahead of ur mum. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by vgbg88: 11:40am On Jul 23, 2011 |
@just wise thanks for ur replies, just to get you clearer, i shud address all the issues they complained about. using another account statement doesnt matter right? "the previous account stmt, the introduction letter from sch and the consent letter where held back, it doesnt matter right , i just have to represent another , pls am i correct? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by dappyboy: 12:15pm On Jul 23, 2011 |
Please guys i need your suggestions, i work with a company at ibadan and i intend going on a vacation in the UK for 2weeks i want to apply for a tourist visa and my Company wants to sponsor my trip!!! i have all my supporting documents ready but i have a virgin passport cuz i have never traveled out of Nigeria, what are my chances of getting the visa? please i need your urgent reply. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 2:12pm On Jul 23, 2011 |
dappyboy: Holding a virgin passport is not really the issue, the issue is meeting all the requirements. Every frequent traveler started with virgin passport. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by dappyboy: 3:04pm On Jul 23, 2011 |
Thanks JUSTWISE my fear about the virgin passport thing was because i was denied a Canadian Tourist Visa recently due to Travel History alone nothing else!! but i will file my application on Monday, |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by justwise(m): 5:18pm On Jul 23, 2011 |
vgbg88: Using another bank account shouldn't be a problem as long as its original with letter of consent from ur daddy. |
