How i wish i can send you an email, so we can talk better.
i travelled for a course in the uk with a 6 months visa, but stayed for 3months
travelled 25th of january and came back may 14th.

fees for 2years UK Visa processed in VI

USD 458 = NGN 168089 Regular charge
USD 75 = NGN 27525 VI Charges
USD 533 = NGN 196345 Total

I have document for the loan from my office, and the purpose stated there.
i am being payed 300k monthly and i am due for vacation for 21days which has been granted.
and i have been promoted with extra 200k on my previous salary effect from 1st of november.
i intend travelling october.
with this months salary making almost 900k on my account. the loan is for partly my course fee for next year and to repair part of my house that was damaged by the heavy down pour of july.

if i apply for 6months i will probably need to apply again for 6 months next year.

i really appreciate your assistance and explanation.
the last time i travelled to the uk, travel agent handled everything apart from my document i provided.
i just wanted to do this one myself.

I have only been to scotland and i have never been to London. thats why i am going to london now. My friend is ther who is going to accomodate me for my 12 days visit. All am paying for is my visa fees and my flight ticket and some few change for transportation etc. he is a citizen and sent me invitation twice and all necesarry document.

thank you very much Sir for your Understanding.

Sir,
Please don't forget that with truecaller app, or biometrics submitted for sim registration, you should be more wary of personal info submitted to the public.
@bolded: what of flight tickets.
@your bank balance; unless you have a good history of travelling and/or good turnover on your bank accounts, or other circumstances to explain the need for a two year visa, I will suggest you stick to six months visa.
I suppose the entry and exit of the N1m are clear in your bank statement: you can include comments on it in a letter of introduction; read back. Think of the mind of the ECO and don't give room for them to deny you based on some unexplained cashflow. It is up to you demonstrate the sincerity of your visa application.

i had N900k on my account then i took a loan from the company i work. i have been to the uk 2014 to 2015. i am going for a vacation and visiting a friend. and by early next year lets say march i will be going for a course in the uk like i did 2014 and 2015. i was hoping i apply for a 2 years visa application so that i wont have to reapply again.
i have 1.7m in my account.

my problem now is how am going to pay for my visa application?
and if its okay to apply for a 2 years uk visa
and if my account is okay to do so.

thank you...
I intend spending from the 1m on my account, flight and my visa fees and the 7ook is for next yyear...

Vicjustice:
Your request indeed suggests that you have the perfect Username.

Vicjustice:
So, you also need someone to help you in making calculation of your own budgets, to make your own list for you and to give you an estimate figure of how much you would be spending, yes?

justwise:



Transferring money from your business account to salary account because of this trip is not going to do your application any good. Money in your other account supposed to be your profit from the business and not your business capital transferred purposely for the trip.

The point is this...this trip should not affect the running of your business financially, you should be able to proof that you can afford to visit the UK from your savings without touching your actual business capital.

The problem you have now is that you don't have tax certificate because that piece of document will state your gross and net profit.

Make a budget of how much this trip will cost you then that will help you determine how much to feel in the form.

I was in similar situation as u when I applied for family visit to d UK. I addressed myself as a business man because I hv a business name registered, my business name was registered April this year and I applied around August this same year.
Here are lists of documents below I attached with my application:

1.completed and duly signed uk visa application form
2.my e passport
3.original and copy of cert. Of registration of my business name
4. Original print out n copy of individual tax registration (U Can also get this if u dont already have a tax registration number at the nearest firs office..it's free and takes less than 5 mins to generate if they have network in their pc )
5.my personal savings bank statement covering a period of 6 months
6.2 photos showing me and my sister who invited me
7 . Transcripts of past msgs exchanged tru email n facebook to sister n my nephew to support family relationship n communication claim
8. P60 end of year certificate for my sister in uk
9 . Copies of utility bills.(electricity, gas, water) of inviter

12. Copy of data page of int'l passport of inviter

I had to explain to em why I am using my savings acct as my business acct as I dont hv a business acct ..I also stated briefly about my business operations, nature of business n how payments are made to me for most transactions

I hope it works out for u too as it did for me.
