They said I I spent more than what I wrote for my monthly expenses I wrote 200,000 but they said on my account statement that I spend more than 200k monthly

But how do they expect U to know the exact amount you spend monthly?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Jerry1997: 1:18pm
Good day house. Please does anyone knows how to appeal UK Visitors VISA refusal?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Moomm123: 1:24pm
I don't even know I don't even understand them but I just showed the letter to my big brother and he said that they just don't want to give me you get because sometimes I spent more than 200 and sometimes in a full month i dont even spend upto 100k

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Jerry1997: 1:50pm
Can I reapply immediately and address the bank statement issue...proof other sources of income....

Or what do you advise?

Is this a real job? Or it was ‘calculated’
Any firm paying HR 1million naira monthly should be a large one as if Hr alone collects 1m then the rest of the staff… so in essence should be a big company. The presence alone on the web would have been able to cancel all their doubts.. so I doubt your job is real. Sorry to say.
Why do you intend to spend 8.5million for 10 days trip? What was the rationale behind this?

I strongly doubt if the visa officer really read the explanation letter I submitted because I explained how the money entered the account there. And some transactions on the account statement were from te company account. I AM TIRED!!!
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Jerry1997: 2:28pm

your budget is too high! Same thing happened to me . My family and I have to reduce our budget apply immediately and we got it . For 10days accommodation £400-500
Flight £550
Feeding £150
Attractions and transportation £ 150
Others £250
Total 🟰 £1600 - 1700
That is ok and that around 3plusmillion
When you get there u can decide to spend all ur savings ! Cos they wonder why will you spend that kind of money just for 10 days . Also is better you print like 1 year statement so that they can see that u have been saving for a while . But if is not saving show documents to support how u get the fund . Explain in ur your cover letter.

Ops! Thank you for this. So do you suggest I reduce the amount I plan to spend for 10 days? If yes, how much do you recommend with the current exchange rate? Then what if the hotel reservation and flight booking amount are more than that or I won't have to submit hotel reservations?

Please note that I am sponsoring myself. I have 12m balance in my account.

So if you have truly 12 million in your account, then you would blow 8.5 million in 10 days on central london? No one who is truly earning money will do that in 10 days especially as your disposable income is 400k monthly….
The unexplained large deposits in your account were also a factor that worked against you.

Aside reducing budgeted amount for the 10 days trip, which other things do you suggest I work on? Because I even explained the source of income of the bank statement in a letter I submitted with the documents but I don't think the visa officer read it...

I did explain those deposits in the letter but I don't think they read the letter.

The hotel reservation I used for the refused application was from Booking.com

Perhaps I may just need to search for cheaper ones.

Do you suggest I reduce the balance I have in the account?

I didn't add my savings evidence. I only talked about it in the explanation letter. Can I add some other sources of income like sales of property in the new application?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by aderemi166: 7:29pm
Reduce your budget as advised
Calculate your monthly expenses again using your account statement… if possible, reduce it, N600k is high.
Address the reasons of the previous refusal on a separate cover letter carefully with evidence.

Sorry about the refusal.

1. Your living cost is high compared to your salary.

2. Your estimate for the trip is too high! Regardless of the exchange rate. Your estimate should not be more than N4M in my estimate

3. Paying for priority screamed desperate! You wasted money!

4. Your N12m account balance does not add much value as far as UK visa goes. Your account balance mucst make sense - it's not just about having a lot of money

5. I won't advise you to reapply this year. Build up your savings by cutting down your monthly expenses.

6. Next time, please ask for guidance and avoid wasting money in this economy.

Good luck!

I have to be blunt here. You are too desperate. If someone is truly earning 1million naira monthly, why are you bringing up sales of property and so on… it is obvious so much is going on underneath ad you are trying too hard to prove a financial status that is non existent… if I can smell it from a mile away, how much more a visa officer who is seeing all your documents… they can see through all of this.
Take it easy.
You do not even communicate like a HR manager nor like a HR manager earning such amount of money monthly in Nigeria … it is hard to explain but if this is true, a visa officer would smell it as true.
