Hello �, I have been following the thread here
I applied for a business visa first timer
My company is in France and I work remotely. I was invited for an offisite meeting, I got my passport today but was rejected.

These are the documents I submitted
My passport
The completed Visa Application Form
My Bank statement
My Payslips
Invitation letter from my company(Mindee)
Confirmation letter/ Employee agreement
Appointment letter
Employees Directory
Certificates relating to my occupation
Cover letter with travel itinerary explaining purpose of my trip
Letter explaining the previous rejection
Travel Medical Insurance policy
Proof of Hotel reservation
My Flight Reservation
Covid Vaccination Card

And I was rejected with these reason
Information justifying the purpose and condition of intended travel

And

There are reasonable doubts of your intention to leave the member state .....

I need to reapply again as this travel is urgent and essential for me.

What do you think I can do differently in my new application

Do I get my company is to send the embassy an email directly, would that be beneficial to me.

Please I need advice.

Been Single isn't a Criteria for visa rejection.

Remote jobs have their Pros and Cons. In this scenario, the notion you can work efficiently from anywhere has to be overcomed considering you have no travel history even though in some cases can be overlooked.

If your Company can do a Guarantee that you will definitely return after the offsite meeting then you stand a better chance.

They may ask why you cant Zoom in for this meeting.
Again this depends on your Capacity and your Level.

Its all in the Hands of the Employers in France to do the needful with a strong worded Letter sighting the utmost need for your presence. Evidence of official Correspondences

Are they sponsoring the trip? Was the first form properly filled ?


quote author=Marybeth262728 post=110866420]@Beverlyhills I have sent this reply to my company. They will modify the invitation letter and send a letter to the embassy as well on my behalf.

Is there anything else aside this i can use to aid my application.

Hi Marybeth,
Its One Pointer

1. Your Company is in France and you work remotely- the Visa officer has unanswered questions as to why you can work remotely but need to be physically present to engage in an Offsite meeting.

This is the Doubt he or she has.

In this invitation letter, what was written? Duration of this offsite meeting and why your physical presence is of utmost importance to your growth as well as the company?
Was a copy of this Invitation letter sent to the Embassy as well as OR its just the copy they sent you?
Your Company should also guarantee that after this offsite meeting you will definitely return back to Nigeria .

Someone should please recommend another country to visit with ease for vacation from Nigeria. Dubai has some age restrictions now and My husband is younger that 30years.

Dont let it bother you...

You can pick Single or Multiple entry. Usually they look at your itinerary to decide.

Totally at their discretion.

Okay thank you

Hello good evening , please I’m confused because I’m getting different responses, when filing the form , do I put 1 entry or multiple entry ?

I got a job with a tech company that sponsored my work permit.

meljoe:
Plesse is there a section to upload documents in the site or it’s done at the embassy ?
The last time I did with that agent I didn’t take bank statements inside the embassy oh , but I can’t see where to upload it here

mialate:
You dont upload anything. Everything you need to submit should be neatly seperated and submitted on the day of your Appointment.

Print out your Bank statement before you go for submission.

Congratulations, can you please inquire from him if he booked his appointment together with his children's own on one appointment or he booked their own separately since he is a frequent traveller and they are not.

My uncle got 1year tourist visa this morning together with his 2 kids under short stay. He scheduled 10days trip for Easter and requested for multiple entries. Though he’s a frequent traveler to Schengen countries and his last France visa was 6 month. The children are first time traveler.
So it’s possible to get 1 year tourist visa under short stay.

meljoe:


Oh wow , the last time I did it , the agent said he uploaded my bank statement, I didn’t go in with anything except the insurance and marriage certificate, no wonder other people had big files with them
Na wa oh

mialate:
LOL.... Uploaded what? That individual did you Dirty!

meljoe:

That’s what he told me oh , I went in with only travel insurance , the girl inside didn’t even let me add my previous visa that I scanned
