Good morning house,

I am applying for my first UK visa. I have a letter of introduction and sponsorship from my employer. But I added that I have some amount in savings; Can I use my Account statement from my investment app to prove that?

Even though this trip is work-related, you should still provide your own payslips/bank statements, in addition to the introduction and sponsorship letter from your company. Depending on where you work, your company may not necessarily give you their bank statements for visa purposes. Smaller companies and one-man businesses might but if you don't work for those, they will only give a letter stating that they would sponsor the trip + any other business verification docs.

Use your account statement + savings/investment statement to buttress your application. This also shows proof of employment as your statement would show that you are actually employed at said company and receive consistent monthly payments.

Yimi4real:
I need some help please. I am not able to get my tax clearance from my employer. Being trying to chase up with them. Has anyone applied without it and got the visit visa?. Is it mandatory to provide it?

I've gotten at least six visas without tax clearance. Just print your monthly payslip. The tax you pay should be there. That's enough.

Good day house
pls for those that have been fully vaccinated and want to travel to uk, do they need PCR test


Is there any body that have recent travelled with Turkish Airline, do they need PCR test?? pls need ugent answer. Thank you

Good afternoon everyone, I submitted my application yesterday and just realized today that I made a mistake on the hotel reservation. Instead of check in date in 2022, I mistakenly selected 2023. Please, is there a way to correct this error? ��‍♀️

This has been covered here multiple times in the last few days/pages, whether you are vaccinated or not you do NOT need to take any test prior to flying to the UK, it doesn’t matter which airline you are on. It doesn’t matter where you transit to.

I am sure they would know it’s a typo. But have you actually reserved the hotel booking for 2023?

Please for those that used keep my passport option, how long did it take to get your passport back after submitting passport to TLS. Also if they ask to submit your passport is that a positive sign for approval?

Thank you for your response. Yes, I have. That’s what I used for the application. Every other document bear same travel dates but in 2022. I don’t know if I should modify the booking to 2022. What do you advise, please?

Dependent visa

If you have submitted the application maybe you can send them a paid email? Maybe that would put your mind at ease.

HRprof:

No embassy have access to applicant bank account they can only confirm the authenticity of the statement of account you provided from the bank and work with the inflows shown on the statement . Is against bank rule to disclose transactions or give third party access to their customers bank account. Is only EFCC with government authority can have access to request bank statement from bank for investigation and must bring Authorized letter from government.

This is not true, leef2022 is right, lets stop misleading people about this

How many days after receiving the response that a decision has been made, should one go to TLS?

Sent a paid mail yesteday and they replied a decision has been made

Just curious as the tracking still shows application with DMC

This is not a Keep your passport option pls, hence the need for clarification

Also, has anyone received a refusal without getting the email?


Thank you

I have read from so many people here over the years who claimed to be a bankers with the same argument you are making here still that doesn't change the fact that the embassy will find out if an applicants using fake bank statement or removed the money after submitting the application.

ha… nobody here works with UKVI.. it is impossible for us to know

tytmed:

Ok thank you. So in a situation where a decision was made since last week and the passport has not been given to TLS what can I do please? Travel date is tomorrow .

Never buy a ticket or book accommodation until you get your passport. This instruction is from UKVI. Thus providing confirmed accommodation booking or flight reservation documents is no longer considered important in Standard Visitor Visa application. I got my decision email supposedly 5 days into in my UK trip. Picked up my passport with visa on day 7 into my UK trip. I am still in Nigeria chilling out, as there no point traveling again.

Yes the UKVI can go to length to authenticate a document depending on the type of visa been applied for.

It should not take long (maximum of 5 days) as your passport will be sent to BHC Lagos or Abuja for visa sticker if approved or embassy stamp if refused. Submitting your passport (keep my passport option) is not a sign of approval in my own opinion.

Cashmadam:

Can you please show me a sample of a monthly payslip.

If you have got the mail from UKVI. Print it out and take it with you to TLS. Chances is that your passport is available for collection. Mails from TLS are inconsistent. I paid for SMS notification and did not get any.

tintall:
Hello house. I want to reply for a UK visitor visa after being refused in 2021.
I made mistake in the application as I did not explain the inflows in my bank statement(‘cos the inflows where more than my salary for the period as I stated that I did not have any other source of income apart from my salary). This will be rectified in the next application.

I have never traveled out of Nigerian, should I be worried about the my immigration history?

I would greatly appreciate any help/advice on what to do on my next application.


Attached is the previous refusal letter.

Next time provide a detailed response letter with a table and explain every inflow in you bank statement. Who paid the money and what was it for? If you have savings, that is considered as additional income. Tick that box. The ECO assumed that you will not return as you have a guaranteed accommodation in the UK provided by your brother. Your immigration history will be considered too. However, if you have a detail financial layout and plan of daily activities to undertake while in the UK, your lack of immigration history will be overlooked. In summary it is your response to the refusal letter showing that your circumstances have change significantly that matters.

This your question shows that either you do not have pay slip or not under PAYE (Pay As You Earn) tax

Good morning house please it's an urgent ��� can someone who don't have any credentials e.g o level but have care certificate, can he/she apply for care Jobs?

You are wrong at the bolded
Yes they will find out fake statements of account. There are things not supposed to be said here but To bust you bubble justwise I have gotten visas after removing money from my bank account in the same bank statement of account submitted which will show that the current balance will not be same when check by embassy at the time of processing my application. They only confirm the authenticity of the statement they don’t expect applicant not to make use of their money in the bank after submitted visa application and bank will not disclose the current bank but only confirm the authenticity of the statement.
