What does your situation allow? It is not about what's more preferable but what's more realistic. If you live in Nigeria, the logical thing is to apply from Nigeria, If you live in the UK on a visa that allows you to live/work in the UK, then you apply in the UK.
If you live in Nigeria and want to apply in the UK outside these two scenarios, then you need to be unmarried and apply for a fiance visa to the UK, get married within 6 months of getting to the UK and apply immediately after - this is more expensive as you'll be pay more in visa fees.

but which is more preferable? applying in UK or Nigeria?

No one can give you a timeline for this because it is outside the regular visa processing times.

I will advise you to wait a little bit so you don’t waste your time going to Ikeja for nothing, it’s just 6 working days since you submitted your passport, at least wait till the end of the week.

The man being a UK citizen, doesn't he has the right to go back to his country and apply after the wedding in Nigeria. or it must be where the lady lives?

It isn't the man that wants to come to the UK, it is the lady and if the lady doesn't have a visa that allows her to live/work in the UK, she can't make an application in and from the UK. If she lives in Nigeria, she has to apply in Nigeria.

Good morning guys, please I have something I wanna be sure about and I need an answer ASAP..... The letter head of the letter from the sponsor's employer is addressed to which Embassy (Nigeria or UK)?
Because my wife showed me the letter she got from her employer and it has the address of her place of work (which is correct) and this " To whom it may concern
Nigeria High Commission
9 Northemberland Avenue
London,
WC2N 5BX
(Not sure if the Embassy address is the right one to use since I'm the one going to the UK)
Hi, the letter is usually addressed to the UK embassy. As at the time we applied, we used the address in Lagos cos we didn’t know the uk address, I think it should be the Sheffield one. Either way, it should be addressed to the UK embassy.

I think priority visa application has resumed. For further information, go to TLContact website(the centre for submission of Nigerian visa application. I read there, that it costs £573 for priority(takes 30 days) while super priority costs £956 (decision by end of next working day).
As per the bills, I’m not quite sure of that as I only submitted 1 council tax, tenancy agreement, pictures of apartment, and no bills. Only 6 months bank statements , 6 months payslips, employment letter as well as correspondence etc. It’s 6 months of bank statements & payslip if the sponsor has been working in the same company for at least 6 months. Otherwise, it is 12months.

Yes, you can apply for a spouse visa. However, you need to provide the genuineness of your relationship up until the marriage. Check the link for more information.

Good evening house, here on behalf of my sister, she was refused because she wrote the wrong IELTS test even after getting band 7. Her husband is applying through a firm in the uk and she was told to write the a1 English test. She already booked the test, Checked out the exam past questions and I think she should be good. Hope she will be approved if she passes the test cos am worried for her

Once she passes the test and also meets the other requirements stated on the gov.uk website. She’s good to go.

This is regarding the finance aspect. My husband who is on spouse visa (2nd half of the 5yrs) is currently apply for his last child to join him.
My salary is enough to cover the financial requirements (after adding all other children) but his is below.
Is it sufficient if I provide only my financial evidence for this application, or does he need to provide his too?

We can provide his but it is too tedious going to get a letter from his previous employers as they need 12months evidence.

My question is: the child in question is dependent on him not me but since we are married, Can we only provide my payslips and bank statements for this application or do we need his too?

Thanks

@mamaeee please mama, I need your advice here urgently. So my partner and I got married early this year. Prior to that, we have been in an off and on relationship before she decided to divorce in order for us to make our Union official. My concern now is that the marriage certificate will bear my surname, but her passport bears her surname from her previous marriage, of which she just got it November last year and our wedding was in January. Please will this have any effect towards our visa application? If yes, kindly advise what to do accordingly. Thank you
