What visa type did you apply for

Iamajala:
Exactly 7 weeks after biometric today. Reply from paid mail “Application still under consideration” UK una no try at all ooo, and I need my passport back so bad.

Vicki2020:

Visit visa.

I think they concentrate mostly on the students and those that paid for priority. From what I have come to understand if you like call or send them paid mail a million times, they will only process your application when they are ready to. Just like someone said here before. And it takes up-to 8 weeks now. But the most important thing is the visa should be approved. You can’t waste peoples time, withhold their passport and at the end story.

Standard visitor visa

This your own case is unusual Priority??

Since 5th of October yet no mail


It is well ooooooooooo

Hello house ,
Did my biometric 2nd of November I just got my refusal mail today (priority).
However i am perplexed by the reason for my refusal. Firstly, i stated that I am self employed, attached all the necessary documents to prove this (Business reg certificate, Tax clearance, corporate account statement,etc).
I also stated that my personal account was used for business before I created my corporate/business account, so all huge deposit were strictly for business (I attached so many invoices and receipts) .
I also stated that I intend to spend N1,150,000 on my trip.
It is just as if the ECO didn’t go through my application at all (saying I declared N1,150,000 as extra income) , and also complained about my credits when I already clarified that with proofs (receipt and invoices).
The last part that threw me off was where the ECO highlighted a deposit of N1,100,000 on the 28th of October which I already stated as my monthly salary and came directly from my corporate account, yet the ECO wrote “the source of fund is unknown”.

I’m very confused at this point cos the mail says I don’t have a right of appeal. Please advise on next step to take.

I sent a follow up email today and this is response I got. They're a waste of time honestly, their emails don't give anything away.

Dear ****,

I feel you bro, I guess the volume of application they receive this year is too much that the ECO don’t have enough time to go through your application abi the ECO get eyes problem?. This is really unfair.

Best thing you can do is to re-apply immediately and explain in details, point out ECO’s misinterpretation in your cover letter and I bet your visa will be issued, this has happened to few people back and it worked, it’s like UK need another visa fee and priority money from you

This is the email I received on Monday after 32 working days ooo. (35 working days TODAY) and still counting.


Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for your enquiry.

We apologise for the delay in processing your application.

Please note that your visa application is still under consideration.

We will be in contact with you as soon as your case is concluded.

Your patience is much appreciated.

Hello,
I am super sad as this my first time applying to UK, I did my biometric 29th of October and I got a refusal mail on the 2nd of Novemeber(priority).
However i feel upset as the consuler did not go through my supporting document infact he made a mistake in his explanation.I clearly stated that I was going to spend 1,200,000 for my trip and in his response he wrote 2,000,000 which I clearly and obviously dint write.I also stated that my husband was going to support with 1m which he transferred to my account and he attached a letter with his signature and stamp.
I also attached my salary account as well as piggyvest and investment account.
I would like to know the next step to take as I even typing this I am yet to get a collection mail from Tls.
I would like for the critics to help look at my information and let me know where i went wrong.

Hi
I'm sorry about your refusal.
Along with your documents, did you submit a “letter of leave” from your employer or any letter at all from your employer to establish employment ties to the country?

First of all, I’m sorry about this refusal.

I just went through the attached document now and I think the issue is from the breakdown of the money part.
Total amount of money you want to spend in two weeks is almost your per annum salary if I’m not mistaken, did you use oanda to calculate while filing your forms ?
Savings of £5000 and additional annual income of 5 million Naira do these two reflect in the activities of the account?

I don’t think the ECo had a problem with your husband supporting you , I think the problem is from the breakdown of funds you gave.

Please everyone add your two cents and corrections to my remarks.

Thank you so much however,the 5 million naira are documented in my piggyvest account as well as my investment account
Please how do I use the oanda to calculate for future purpose.
