folajoseph: tzetzefly: tzetzefly: tzetzefly please note that my business account has more funds in it but i intend to apply with my personal bank statement, Please let me know if its enough to be considered for the visa or should i use my business account? Thank you |

folajoseph: This is a better clarification than what you wrote in your previous post. However, you still need to convince the ECO on how your business will be run while you're away. Separate your personal account from your business account and put both documents together in your application. France is one of those countries that base their judgement on previous travel history. If you have one, then go on ahead and apply. Else, try someplace else for tourism. |

Hi tzetzefly, Ok please bare with my explanation Myself and three other friends plan to go to France or spain in June. Three of us are celebrating our bday and one graduation so we want to take a holiday. Three of us live on the UK and are all British or eu citizens so we know we won't have a problem. The last friend is the one am worried about because he is in Nigeria and would need a visa. I just want u tell us our chances on getting into both countries. Firstly, he is 23 years old and we all are similar in age with the holiest being 24. He finished university last year and only got the job he is currently at in January this year. He is an architect and they work on contract and don't have a fixed monthly salary, he gets paid 100k plus any commission on any contract. in February he was rarely busy but for the next three months he is going to be very very busy with a lot of work and and would be expecting about 300-400k Would his income be good enough? His dad is going to contribute 200,000 towards his trip for flight ticket, while we in d uk are going to book the apartment we plan on staying for the length of our stay. We think we definitely need a letter and statement from his dad but do we as friends include a letter of invitation and bank statement? We plan to do the usual, see Paris, and potentially watch Psg play if the season is not over. We don't know anyone in France. How can we build a reasonable case For his visa. And do we truthfully have a chance. |

busodude: To put it mildly not to sound too pessimistic, his case with French Embassy will be a tough nut to crack. People who have a better long term job schedules have been denied France visa. However not to sound pessimistic again, his case might be different. I do not know if he has any form of travel experience, this will sincerely be a case for consideration by the ECO. He can also try from this angle: Pay for the four of you for the same PSG games. Pay for any concert(s) in Paris. Show evidence of all of you together at some point. He needs to arrange his documents efficiently for the ECO He must be able to show his source of income till date. He can draft a little "summary" of his plan for the trip Send copies of PP data page 2 him for his application. Nothing wrong with his dad helping with sponsor. His dad will need to write a letter authorising his trip. |
Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by busodude: 12:42pm On Mar 08, 2015 |
tzetzefly: Thank you for your advice. So we just need to sit down and come up with a solid activities we plan to do in France. So he can look for a seminar of some sort related to architecture right? If he has any assets would it work? Originally we wanted to go spain, but looking it, since he only has income for three months cause he was in university up until late last year..we were worried we might get declined. Also every money that came into his account was for exam fees etc. So my question is that, Can we use a letter from his university and his dad's income to go with the Spanish embassy? And how do u think we can about it? Which would do you think we should go for France or spain? |
Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by tzetzefly(m): 2:42pm On Mar 08, 2015 |
busodude: Either France or Spain, they are both Schengen. A reason for travel which i mentioned previously. A reason to return back home. Work and family ties. Financial means verifiable and sufficient to fall back on after the trip. |

Hi guys, I am going to Netherlands next month and I will apply through the French VSF centre. I plan to visit Germany after I'm done with the program I'm going for at The Hague, meanwhile, my return flight is from Amsterdam so I need to return to Amsterdam after Germany spend a day then catch my flight back home. My question now is do I need multiple entry Schengen visa to go to Germany and return to Amsterdam or will my Schengen single entry visa grant me reentry into Amsterdam after visiting Germany. Thank you in anticipation of your urgent response as I'm filling the visa form tonight and submitting tomorrow morning cc: justi4jesu and tzetzefly, |

iguita: The ECO will issue you any of the visa types below according to his/her discretion and according to the purpose of travel. The Uniform Schengen Visa (USV) applies to all of the three categories, “A”, “B” and “C” and for your information, we will concerntrate on "C". “C” category stands for a Short-term visa which allows its holder to reside in a Schengen Country for a certain period of time depending on the visa validity. This particular category, according to the holder’s purpos of the travel can be obtained in a form of: Single-entry visa allows its holder to enter a Schengen country only once for the certain period of time. Once you leave the certain Schengen country you entered the visa validity expires even if the time period allowed to stay in the country is not over yet. Double-entry visa applies for the same policy as above mentioned however you are allowed to enter the Schengen country twice meaning that for the certain period of time permitted by your visa you can enter the Schengen country, leave and enter again without any problems. Once you are out of the country for the second time the visa expires. Multiple-entry visa allows its holder to go in and out of the Schengen country as pleased. However this visa allows its holder to stay in a Schengen Zone for maximum 90 days within half the year, starting from the day one crosses the border between a Schengen member country and the non-Schengen member country. Limited Territorial Validity Visa (LTV) : This type of visa obtained allows you to travel only in the Schengen State that has issued the visa or in some other cases, in the certain Schengen States specifically mentioned when applying for the visa. Apart from these Schengen countries, this specific visa is invalid to any other Schengen country not specified prior. The holder of this type of visa cannot enter or transit through any other Schengen country that is not the first and final destination target. |

Thank you for your response. That means I need a double entry visa to visit Germany and return to Amsterdam for my return flight. Thanks tzetzefly: |

Greetings to everyone, please i need your advise; i and my cousin are about to apply for French visa, for him he has travel history and works in a multinational French company and for me i lost a job, i'm not working for now. Our uncle in France is about to send a single invitation for us as we intend to travel together, my cousin is also ready to bear all the cost because of my financial status. NOTE: I intend to mention him in my application as my sponsor. My question now is, how best do you think we can package this application to prevent me from being denied. Thanks in anticipation.

Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by tzetzefly(m): 7:22pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
phymeon: For the Embassy/Consulate of France, the fact that you are unemployed, is a no no. Do not waste your visa fees. Having a travel experience currently counts towards a Schengen visa. Even with a job tie to Nigeria, it still does not guarantee visa issuance. If refusal would not affect you psyche, then you should apply as it is. Nothing to lose. |

onajoy: I'm quite sure when you booked the hotel they provided you with options of cancellation charge if you cancel on a particular date and another option for cancellation before your travel date free of charge/no charge. Check the Hotel's cancellation policy before you can make any changes to your reservation because you may have booked for a Non-refundable room. Room specific cancellation information can be found next to the room type under the "Conditions" column on the hotel's page. You can usually cancel or change your booking up to 24 hours before your planned arrival time. So you may or may not be charged for cancellation. |
