Arise01: You need to pay for flexi. It means you can walk in any time from 10am to get your biometric done. If you want a free slot, watch out for the boxes not greyed out. 1 Like 1 Share |

[quote author=Moonie post=129769662][/quote] Good morning. She must include her own statements of account - regardless of the sponsorship. The low statement might be an issue. The logic is simple. The visa officers always want to be sure that an individual can afford the trip - in the unlikely event the sponsor disappoints for any reason. Therefore, even with a sponsor, it is preferable for an individual to have more than enough funds to sponsor the trip him/herself. I hope I make sense. 2 Likes |

atm0147: Don't try it. It will look like "account padding" |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Cashmadam: 12:09pm On May 04 |
Moonie: 1. Her salary is low but should not be an issue really. If she presents her case very well 2. She must include her statement(s) of account + payslips 3. She must demonstrate her ties to Nigeria - partner? children? aged parent? property? school? Anything to prove that she will come back to Nigeria 4. The major reason for the denial is that she did not say much about herself . She focused on presenting documents about her company. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Moonie: 12:17pm On May 04 |
Cashmadam: okay. Thanks. Any suggestions what she can do? If the company puts the money in the account will it move the needle? When filling the form do I tick she is going to be using her own personal savings? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Cashmadam: 12:29pm On May 04 |
Moonie: That will look suspicious. The company does not need to put any money in her account. She will tick sponsored. She should just provide her account statement and prove her ties to Nigeria. Very simple really. 1 Like |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Moonie: 12:33pm On May 04 |
Cashmadam: Thank you so much. I put in that she has children and parents. Do I need to write it as a separate letter? Then the account statement should be how many months? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Cashmadam: 1:37pm On May 04 |
Moonie: She can include a cover letter. Or additional information section. State the details of her children (names, DOB, schooling etc) and include copies of their birth certificates. Provide some information about her parents and emphasis their ages and the fact that she takes care of them. Her ties will be her children and aged parents - who she takes care of and cannot abandon to stay in the UK illegally. Her write up needs to be convincing as we have seen / heard of people abandoning spouse, children and parents in Nigeria (a very familiar story to visa officers). 6 months statement of account. |

TobyTreasure: Please when did they do the biometrics? And which center? |

@cashmadam can a student dependent be classified as new entrant if any of the conditions is reached ? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Arise01: 4:19pm On May 04 |
Cashmadam: Thank you ma, pls i don’t know if you can share your email or your phone number ma. Plssssss |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Nnekkyneks: 4:43pm On May 04 |
I think ECO is trying to say they need to see her financial standing eg her bank statement She also need to show other ties They basically want her to proof ties that will bring her back. They company can either increase her pay? She can include other savings or investments. If you read through the thread , you will get the gist. You need to proof she has alot to bring her back to Nigeria( like family, property and she travelled before? Just read up there is alot to glen from here. Moonie: |

I tracked my application yesterday, and it's showing that the application has been transferred to the VAC. I haven't received an email from UKVI yet. Does this mean a decision has been made?

Hello all, had biometrics on 22nd April, now I got collection email on 3rd of May, no other email. 3rd of May was a Friday and I got the email around 4pm (close of business), so I can't collect the passport until Monday. The suspense is killing me guys, should I expect another email stating the UKVI's decision? because all I got was the collection email so far. The application was for standard visitor visa |

Lumzeee:Is biometric money different from the visa fee please |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Lumzeee: 11:08pm On May 04 |
Yes it is, depending on the service, fast track or standard. I think Ikeja has free service. |

TobyTreasure: There is no way around it. Go to your pharmacy and get a Xanax. And Be patient |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by godslead(f): 5:03am On May 05 |
Lumzeee: This is the reason I came here to get answers "PAYMENT UNAVAILABLE: The online payment processing solution is currently unavailable; please wait before attempting to pay for "Mandatory User Pay", "Priority Visa", or "Super Priority Visa". This is the message on their page so I didn't bother to click to pay. I don't know what step to take |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Thegamingorca(m): 5:05am On May 05 |
Arise01: These kind of questions you need to be wary of for your safety. If dey eventually send you mails make sure it is to a dummy email completely different from your original one. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by TobyTreasure: 6:02am On May 05 |
Bacteria8: Are you in the UK, if yes, then you can use your UK bank statement and pay slips as the sponsor if she's not working in Nigeria. And also depending on your own visa status in the UK. Add other supporting documents eg if you are inviting her for your graduation ceremony, then you add the invitation letter from your University. 1 Like 1 Share |

What's the process of application for health care visa after getting COS with maintenance? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Bacteria8: 8:07am On May 05 |
TobyTreasure: Ok thanks so much. I'm not on a Student visa. I'm on COS. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by TobyTreasure: 9:25am On May 05 |
Bacteria8: I'm on COS too and I used my pay slips and uk bank statement with 2k closing balance. I wrote a good sponsorship letter and explanation letter for them backed up with my tenancy agreement and council tax receipts. |
