Ririmichael:
Good day all, please I applied for UK visitors visit although I indicated that I traveled to Dubai some years but I forgot to add that China denied me visa a few years ago. I can’t amend it now since I’ve already submitted it.
Please do you think it will be a problem? Is there any other way to tell them?

Good morning Ririmichael,

I now assume that in the section where you were asked Have you ever been refused a visa for any country you replied No?.If this is what happened then you did not forget you lied.

As to your questions,China is one of the big 5 alongside France,Russia,US, and the UK and have a network so it’s a game of chance.

If it is discovered that offence carries up to 10year travel ban,if it is not then on your subsequent application to make the disclosure is between you and your conscience.

If you now feel the need to tell them then you would have to withdraw your application and fill a new form if it’s been less than 24hrs.

I only say 24hrs as the probability your application has been moved for vetting to start after then is high.

Breathe.

Please how much is uk priority visa
Newsolutions:



For Tourist Visa. It is advisable to use hotel booking for your application, you can always stay with anybody when you arrive. 2) The person might have issues with government (credit or child support issues) this you don't know and it will be used against you. I can help you with names of hotel if you tell me the location you are going to

It takes a week or 2 days, if paid for super-priority to get a decision on your application.
But it might take longer for applicants with a refusal history.

Good afternoon fam, pls I need answers pls .
Passport expires same date or almost same date as visa expires, can the person renew her visa a month to the expiration of her passport?
Note - she is in Uk already.
Secondly, how does it takes to renew passport in Uk?

She would have renewed her passport since but was told there was no need to if she applied before it expires but she is so confused now.

I didn’t lie. My brother filled the application for me and I didn’t notice the error before he submitted and it’s been over 24hrs. I’m supposed to go for biometrics on Monday.
Please is there any other thing I can do?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Newbiein2016: 6:12pm On Mar 18, 2023
It's better to declare all rejections and so, I'll advise you cancel and resubmit your application.

If you wish to take the risk, you could upload an additional cover letter stating this rejection, the rejection reason and why it was omitted in your application form. You will have to pay to use the assisted service however (its about NGN47,000 or thereabout - double check the exact cost on TLS site).

I already paid for the assisted service. Could you please give me a little guideline on how to write the cover letter.

Simply apply with the expired passport and write a cover letter explaining your reasons . You are inside the UK and applying for COS . Your passport does not get taken in the UK even if it was not expired so just write the cover letter. It will be accepted
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Newbiein2016: 7:59am On Mar 19, 2023
There are samples that have been shared on the thread. Just use those and adapt for your specific scenario.

Be advised this might not work or the visa officer might choose not to look at the cover letter. So note again that the better option is to cancel and reapply for your peace of mind.

Hello

To add to this,if you have your Nigerian NI please include that as your official document, you may wish to include evidence of your passport renewal application/delivery slip to show this has been done

Cheers

Congratulations dear.
Was it superior or priority



Hi guys,

I got my passport delivered to me today (i paid for courier service at the biometric center) with my visa stamped on it ooo ge ge!

Thank you all for your input on all my questions (especially on my 11 page cover letter which i eventually reduced to 8 pages grin ).

I believe the cover letter made the ECO grant me the visa, because, the only Major thing that has changed between 2019 when i got a refusal and now, is that my savings increased by 50%, every other detail remains constant.

Biometric Date: 28th February 2023 (Application was transferred to UKVI on the same day)

Venue: Ikeja Lagos

"Visa application currently under consideration" mail: 2nd March 2023

"Shipment out for delivery" mail from DHL: 13th March 2023

Passport delivery/Receipt : Today, 14thMarch 2023

"Travel document ready for collection" & "Travel document returned by courier" mail: Came in after i had received my passport (obviously smiley )


Thank you all.



Hello, wonderful people @duchess, justwise and co I have a burning concern, please. I am about to apply for a UK sponsorship visa. I was refused a visa in 2006 at the Republic of Ireland high commission in Abuja. The problem is that I don't have the refusal letter with me anymore and cannot really remember the reason why I was refused because I never knew this data would come. But I think it was due to poor proof of funds. This happened 16 years ago. So should I fill out the UK application form stating that I haven't been refused a visa to other countries before? I still have the refusal stamp and reference number on my old non-Epassort. I am confused here and don't know the best thing to do. Please help a brother in need here. Thanks.

List the documents you used in your previous application.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Newbiein2016: 1:38pm On Mar 19, 2023
No reason to be confused or dishonest.

16years is a long time and circumstances have changed so complete your application truthfully with all supporting documents.

Hi @sylvialucy. How are you? DHL sent you a message but not TLS? Wow. From my understanding, that's likely to be an approval as no refusal notice. Congratulations!

You stated that you have no savings. I think your refusal is crystal clear.

Also they feel you don’t have ties like properties or assets of your own.

@giselle237 kindly come in on this.

Since he paid for self assisted service already, i feel he should just write a cover letter stating that he erroneously omitted the visa refusal from China, then state the refusal date. Then submit at TLS as part of documents to be uploaded with his application. I see no point in cancelling his application for that reason, honestly.

There is no maximum amount,the rule of thumb for minimum is can it cover your bills without you seeking recourse to public funds and still have savings left.Cost everything and therein lies your answer.

Also if someone outside your immediate family is sponsoring Acc/feeding /travel and you are an adult it does not seem straightforward.

Do the maths.
