Good day All,


I did biometric on 31st January, 2024 at Ikeja TLS. I received my passwport today with no vignette. However. I did not
receive any refusal email.
How do I go about this please?

Please house, advise me on this. Me and my husband are in UK as skilled worker visa, I am the main applicant, my husband is the dependent. My daughter and my step son are still in Nigeria, So we applied for visa for my daughter and my step son(my husband had a son when he was still much younger).Today, we were sent a mail from UKVI that we should send additional documents below:
1. The parent with permission it’s a skilled worker is the sole surviving parent or
2. The parent with permission as a skilled worker has sole responsibility for the child’s upbringing or
3. The decision maker is satisfied that there are serious and compelling reasons to grant the child entry clearance or permission to stay with the parent who has permission as a skilled worker.

Please what can we do now. The son lives with her mother grandma but my husband takes full responsibility of him. I will appreciate your contribution. Thanks

I am guessing this was sent only for the step son right?
Your husband is a dependent and not the skilled worker and so ordinarily his child is not linked to you the skilled worker. Does your husband have full custody and sole responsibility by way of court documentation stating this with proof of all their financial and domestic payments in the child’s life. Or is the biological mother dead with proof? If he doesn’t have these, forget it.

Yes, only for the step son. He has financial statement of him sending schools fees and monthly feeding also for occasions as birthday. No court document and the mother is in the picture.

Neyotee:

If the mother is in the picture, she can write a letter of consent backed by law that she allows without objection the child to migrate with his father to the UK.

no she cannot. It does not work that way.
If the mother is in the picture then UKVI expects that the child can stay back with the mother.
Only court documents stating that father has sole responsibility and sole custody rights of child is all that will be accepted. Anything short of this and mother is not dead, O.Y.O

Which visa did you apply?

Hello Gurus,
I am trying to book an appointment with TLS Ikeja for biometrics. According to what I heard, it is free in Ikeja. However, each time I try, it doesn't take me to the proceed to checkout. But if I pick one of the paid services, it gives me a checkout option. What am I doing wrong? Is it a must to pay when choosing Ikeja?

You won't get a full refund since you've done biometrics, and in the event that they have begun processing your application then you won't get anything back.

They’ve not taken any decisions yet. Should I try and see if I can get?

You can, there’s nothing wrong In trying. You will need to cancel the application first, then request for a refund.

Once you have done biometrics, no one is refunding you anything.

Gurus in the house, please help me out here. Blow his my refusal letter. Please I need your candy advice because i will be re-applying in 6months time. Thanks


I've refused your application for a vising visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of paragraph.

• You have declared that you are an executive Manger for Multi purpose services earning 600.000NGN(£616)per month, plus additional 3,000.000NGN(£3,081)per year from other sources of which you spend 100,000NGN(£102)per month. You further state that you will travel to the UK for a 13 days holiday at a personal cost of £2000, and that your employer will contribute a further £1,200 towards the visit.

• Whlist, I acknowledge the importance of family visits and am aware that you have stated your Sister resides in the UK and submitted supporting documents in her name. I must take into account your personal circumstances when coming to my decision. Furthermore. I have been unable to establish any previous contact with her/him or establish that you're in fact related as stated

I do not find it credible that with a partner to support in Nigeria, would you now chosen to spend over 3 times this available monthly income and all of your available funds on a 13days visit, nor that your employer would sponsor your holiday, having never previously sought the same sponsor in the 4 years since she has been in the UK

• From the information provided, I have not been able to establish that your current employment or financial circumstances are as stated. How you are supported on a daily basis and how you will finance your visit, nor whether you have family members currently in Nigeria currently in Nigeria.

• I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the meet the requirements of paragraph (s) 4.2(a)(c)(e) and V4 .3 (a) of appendix V because am not satisfied that you will leave the UK at the end of the visit are genuinely seeking entry for a purpose that is permitted by the visa routes and that you have sufficient funds to cover all reasonable cost in relation to their visit without working or accessing public funds, including the cost of return or onward journey, any costs relating to dependants and cost of planned activities such as private medical treatment.
