degelinglacis: Omoh you must have a good reason why you are sponsoring her to the UK instead of her using her money. If she has no business or income or savings this application might be hard |

EmirOfBodija: Some ppl advice to use 0 pound. But I can't really advice you on what to do as this is an aspect to visit applications I detest and frankly know nothing about for now. As it puts an applicant at the mercy of the ECOs ![]() |

crackcrack: That's not strong home ties. That's good travel history. Thats a big plus that you've been to alot of countries especially the USA. The home ties come to play when you disclose the nature of your job to them, how much you earn, your disposable income in every month and the reason why you can't possibly leave your work to go and overstay in the UK. I just hope you don't intend to leave that 11 million sitting in that account and expect red carpet to roll out for you from the ECO ![]() |

Thegamingorca: Thanks for your response. I don’t exactly understand what you mean by “you'll be in for a rude awakening when the time difference between when you started your current job that pays you and now cannot be able to account for that sum of money.” I’ve been working for the same company for five years, and I’ve been in my current position for about a year. I have no lump sums or additional credits to my account except my salary. So I don’t think the ECO should have any issues with my finances or how the money was accumulated. I’m more worried I’ll get denied over ties to Nigeria. Given all this, do you think my employment is sufficient home/economic ties? Thank you. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Thegamingorca(m): 6:44pm On Mar 12 |
crackcrack: Oh your employment looks good. If all the money came from this job you have, demonstrable by your bank statement then you have nothing to worry about |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by giselle237: 6:46pm On Mar 12 |
crackcrack:Economic ties are part of home ties. In this case seems like the job you have in Nigeria is well paid and been with them for 5 years is a +. Shows some stability. Stop been scared. Just fill the financial part of the form well. |

Hi Pls can I travel twice with 6 Months visit visa? I travelled in December for 8 days visit. I intend to go back in April for another 8 days which was not stated in my application. Thank you. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Thegamingorca(m): 3:31pm On Mar 13 |
jimcykhan: Your visa is multiple entry. As long as the stipulated validity doesn't expire whilst you are in the UK you won't be in violation of your application 2 Likes |

crackcrack: Fill the online form carefully. Ensure your salary account is "clean". Avoid "account padding". Your savings (N11m) isn't a lot when converted to Pounds as the exchange rate is really high now. If you don't have any dependant and your monthly disposable income is reasonable, you should be fine. Your travel history (especially to the US) will help. Good luck! 1 Like |

Hi Guys, I’m currently an international student in Canada and I’ll be going on a month break, I plan to visit the UK for just two weeks. I’m currently working in Canada as a part time worker and I get paid. Do I have good chances to visit the UK? Thanks . |

Hello everyone, I’ve been reading silently. I want to apply for a visitors visa later this year, right now I have about NGN 8.1M in my bank, i get paid well. I also have other source of income, I have 3 buses that pay me weekly and every month the tenants in my late dad’s house also send me their rent. So I want to know how do I make this understandable to the ECO that I make money from those buses and rent, if I need to explain it on my financial cover letters. I’ve been to few African countries. Please if someone can elucidate more thank you. In January my cousin was given a Standard Visitors Visa. I went to his house over the weekend and we were talking about it and he showed me the bank statement he used, I was shocked, his opening balance was N874,472 and the closing balance was about N5.2M. He said he didn’t explain the transaction in it, but what I observed was that he really had a lot of transactions, there’s no ECO that would see that history and doubt if he doesn’t have access to that funds..he will be visiting for the Easter season. My cousin doesn’t know anything about travels, he doesn’t have any travel history, just his job, not married. But for me I think it was his rich financial life that made it. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by davodyguy: 11:03am On Mar 15 |
davodyguy: Passport picked up Visa granted. Shocked that it took exactly 5 working days without paying any priority. May be cos my mum once lived in the UK, worked there and gave birth there, before voluntarily returning to Nigeria. It's just a visit visa and 6 months multiple entry visa granted 1 Like |

Good morning everyone, please can a couple living in different countries apply for Tier 2 visa and dependant visa sametime? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Jolene474(f): 4:14pm On Mar 15 |
davodyguy: From what I’ve been reading here I thought it was impossible to get a visa with such low amount, he even sent me his visa sticker so I can him look at it and be sure lol. I guess it really depends on the individual handling it. You can even be denied with a NGN 20M statement. Doesn’t matter. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by TravelOutNig: 5:04pm On Mar 15 |
If I was you, I wouldn't compare your case with your cousin's, as there are so many factors in play e.g the case officer interpretations of their bank statement, company they are employed, their type of job, ties to Nigeria etc. Ideally, the Embassy prefers you separate your incomes into Personal bank account (for your employment) and Business bank account (rental and transportation income). If you can't do this, explain and itemize all the incomes clearly e.g. listing the account numbers, income and frequency of payment either in a letter and/or in the visa application. Jolene474: |
