A quick clarification pls, my wife is a school teacher and already have a valid UK Visa including I and the kids and the idea is just to visit Disneyland for 2 days with a train from London as part of their Easter trip, but I won't be going with them due to work at the time, so I won't be applying for the French Visa. I will only be serving as full sponsor of the trip. Hope this won't lead to a denial for them since I won't be applying with them, but will attach copies of my past Visas to Shengen, US and UK, account Statement, accommodation booking, Insurance for them, cover letter to explain why I won't come with prove of work documents, Disneyland tour booking, train or flight booking from London, Business Documents CAC, Employment letter from her school and my place of work, pension statement, Investment statement, Landed Documents, the Kids school related documents, etc??

What other documents do I need to add to prevent denial as all she has is her employment and confirmation letter from the school, letter of introduction to the French Embassy, and Mutual Fund Account.

I will appreciate a solid feed back as I intend applying by next week. Would have applied with them, but need my passport for work before the 14th March and not comfortable if the passport will be out before the said date.

Thanks in Advance.

My wife only and the kids 5 and 2. I will not be going to France with them due to work. But will be the sponsor of the trip, hope that will serve as family tie with other documents

Will the Kids need Biometrics also or just my wife?

Nice one! Giving biometrics depends on age however.

Thanks a lot David. You have answered all my questions. All I need to do is filled the form online for all family members individually and print all out. Then sort the questionnaires for each at VFS.

Submission will be at VFS with all supporting document I believe?

Thanks a lot

davide470:
I will answer this to the best of my knowledge:

1. Yes, you all need to be present

2. Yes, as long as you are submitting a passport, you will do biometrics

3. Walk in

4. It is "safer" to take your passport inside VFS though it is more expensive.

What do you mean by submission process? Online or submitting at VFS?

Please can someone help me answer this question as it's vital before I submit my application.

1. I am applying for a Family of 4, do we all need to be present at Lagos for Submission?

2. Will biometric be done for all 4 ?

3. Do I need to book an appointment to submit or just walk in any day and submit my application?

4. Do all family members require to take a passport photo of the require spec for submission?

I have all stated documents required, but my issue is about submission. Can someone put me through submission process. I am sorry if my questions isn't asked properly.

Thanks in advance to anyone that will help me through this.

Hi Guys,

Family application (study permit for myself, SOWP for wifey and TRV for my boy) on 28 Dec, upfront medical and Biometrics (on 31st).

Approval on Jan 22 for myself. Waiting for madam and my boy's approvals.

Question is, does it mean that until the primary applicant gets his passport stamped before other applications get approved or what?
