Please help me with answers.

My uncle who has British passport wants to invite me to UK to visit him base on his health condition and my work here in Nigeria is a salary work of 46k. And again, the salary account has been receiving money like one million and something but not up to two million. And my uncle said he will send me his British passport for my application
My concern now is, is my salary of 46k and the money that my friend has been sending to my account which is sometimes more than one million and sometimes not up affect my Visa approval?
Pls advise me also on other things to do.
Thank u

who is sponsoring your trip to uk? 46k salary is no go area.....you need to save 1 year salary to be able to secure return flight ticket......you need a solid tie back home to secure a visit visa

Do I need to fill a passenger locator form for my accompanying kids ?

I also need the link to book my day 2 test.

Thanks guys

But my uncle is the one that will take care of all the expenses and his house in UK is where Iam going to stay and besides, I have more than one million in my other account.
With the above, am I good to go?

If it's Air France, he can pay directly into their own zenith bank account. Last I checked their exchange rate was at 444/1$.

Again, use wakanow, transfer naira to them and they will pay on your behalf.

My partner used them in September when he was leaving for the UK,

With 46k salary, there’s obviously no incentive to return to Nigeria. The chances are slim o…that’s £83 that you earn every month. Are you married and do you have properties in Nigeria? Your case isn’t very convincing. There is also the question of how someone who earns that amount is able to save up to 1 million naira. I was denied some years ago and at that time, I was earning 350k o. With about 3 million in savings. The ECO denied me saying that he doesn’t know the source of the money in my account lol! So these visa officers are looking for every possible reason to deny you. Try to get another job or start a business and register it in CAC. Then be paying yourself a good amount of money on a monthly basis as your salary.

No, you’re not good to go o. You need solid ties to show that you will return. Wife & children, a well paying job, properties/investment etc. It’s not about having 1 million naira in your account. People have been denied with N20 million in their accounts. The question is, “Why will you return to Nigeria to continue earning N46k on a monthly basis?”. The ECO won’t think twice before denying your visa because your case is not very convincing. There’s also the question of, is your uncle married with children? Why can’t his family take care of him? Everyone has a reason to go to the UK so your uncle not feeling well won’t move the ECO. These are people are not empathetic/emotional at all. They look at our applications as if we are liars until proven otherwise. So as they pick up our application, they are expecting lies and false stories.
There are just too many loopholes.

Iam not married but does it mean that even
that my uncle can not serve as sponsor assuming I don't have anything doing at all?

what they’re trying to let you understand is you don’t have strong income and tie to your home country. Forget about your uncle first your own circumstances determine 90% of the application

I don’t think so. A friend's own also took two months. I just pray they send it back this week.

Forget about it until your financial situation changes. Get a well paying job or start a lucrative business. Also try to travel to other countries before going to the Uk. Shortly visit Dubai & South Africa or something. Your application is too weak. Your uncle shouldn’t bother sending documents yet because it’ll be a waste. Unless he can sponsor you for student visa.

your chance of getting visit visa is slim........the problem is not your uncle....you can have 20million in your account and still be rejected visa. you need to show them something that will make you return back to Nigeria after your visit to uk........Example (Business, Wife, Kids, well Paying Job, Travel Histories, etc). the 1 Million you are talking about is just 1300 Pounds.

What he should do is clearly written in the email. Resend account statement he initially submitted (a clear version) to the email address provided in the email sent to him before the deadline.
He can download from the app if he uses GTBank(GTBank comes stamped when you download)

He did his biometric 5th of this very month and the message was sent on 18th of this month and every required documents had been uploaded before now,
Please gurus in the house to throw more light

The instructions are clear. He is lucky they even gave him this chance.

@giselle237 Thank you very much for the response.
I’m a business analyst and after savings and expenses, I have about 200k disposable cash monthly. Based on this, can I say my budget is about 400k, to apply the x2 disposable income rule. That way, I’m not declaring all my savings for the trip. Is this budget enough?
The savings account is liquid, but to avoid too much explanation, should I just move the 400k to my salary account and explain that?
I have a previous trip to Dubai and a visa refusal to South Africa due to funds (I can’t remember how exactly this was worded and I don’t have it anymore)
Ties to Nigeria: aged parents dependent on me, one landed property in my name and majorly my job, I’m not sure I would get a leave letter from office, can I add a screenshot of my leave approval email?

giselle237:
@27autumn how much do you earn and what do you do for a living?
Even if u have 2m for the trip, u cnt decalre tht u want to use all ur savings fot a trip, what happens to you when u come back from the trip?
Present two accts to show the source of your funds.
U also should also write in the additional info section of the form this explanation u wrote above .
Add ur payslips it will also certify your earnings.
What other ties do u have to Nigeria including aged parents
Do u have any travel hx?
Where exactly is this 2m? Can u get a letter + loquidate d funds if they are not liquid. Mind u tht u will need a cery comprehensive letter with receipts to show how this money has been accummulated

bbclue:



1.Travel intinery
2.letter from your staff that they are aware of your vacation and will see to the affairs of the company
3.hotel and flight booking.... don't pay oooo

6.Then i attached my personal saving account where I pay myself 200k monthly..
7.Then I also attach invoices of my business

Hello brother
This invoice you attach is it everything or you selected some to upload.

Respectful

It just means they’ve forwarded your application to the decision making center. I guess you submitted outside Nigeria. I also got the same email when I applied. You’ll still get a message from ukhubvisainfo stating your visa is under processing by visits Uk

Oneweek1010:
My people , please help me o

I submitted my application online oct 11,
Biometric oct 28,

November 4th: Email that my application has been received and is under processing.

November 18th: The processed visa application for GWf………. Was forwarded to UK visa and immigration.

Please I don’t understand the email, who does it means? ( “The Processed visa application”)

Please someone should explain to me.

@faz,
Did you get yours?
It already close to a month now and It’s surprising that it was just forwarded on Thursday, that means the application has been at the visa application centre?

When they said “the processed application “ I was thinking they have already process my visa application�

Good morning. Wishing everyone expecting the collection mail positive news.
