wallg123: Looks like you have broken most of the rules in the book. I would not be surprised if you were looking at a long ban. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by justwise(m): 6:47pm On Feb 26, 2016 |
wallg123: Wow! Dude you went all out to break every possible immigration rule. Damm! You have to start rebuilding your credibility now but it's going to take months if not years. Go with the appeal but not to argue against their judgment but to plead for forgiveness |

@ justwise thanks for your advice ... Yes out of ignorance and really solely on my then solicitors I made few mistakes .. But that's on my part. I returned to Nigeria voluntarily after my masters. My wife is 8 months pregnant so we expecting our baby soon ., she works and earns over £38,000 annually . We bought a property together. And she has never been to African prior to our wedding ... Besides I Recide in ph which as u know is the capital city of kidnapping and militancy .. So advice me pls .. An appeal has been filed and our MP has been notified .. Hopefully our child should be 3 months b4 the hearing of they don't have a change of heart b4 then. 1 Like 1 Share |

wallg123: Your appeal must well submitted with great sense of professionalism. You might want to seek advice from a sound immigration lawyer because honestly you're in the bad book of the UKBA. Trust can be rebuilt, but the process of building and rebuilding trust doesn't just happen. It takes significant inner work. |

justwise: What will be the effect if I asked my cooperative to pay the pay the money into my account and request for a covering letter indication that the money is my savings for some time. |

kuchikau1:Its true. These are all part of the scholarship value inclusion. Full tuition fee, monthly allowance, etc... go to their official website and see for yourself |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by wallg123: 10:53pm On Feb 26, 2016 |
Thanks frontpage layer.. Advice much appreciated... |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by justwise(m): 11:58pm On Feb 26, 2016 |
kuchikau1: You are not automatically qualified for visa because you hold commonwealth scholarship, you still have to apply for visa, pay the visa fees and present your scholarship letter. The ECO will make that decision and you are not entitled to it. |

I am applying for a visa to write an exam in 2 weeks time. I have all the necessary supporting documents. I have however had to raise money from friends and family(various sources) to fund the trip. Do I need some official documentation, apart from my bank statements, to prove the identity of those who sent money to me? In other words, do I need official proof from my benefactors as per the lodgement in my account? I have had money deposited in my account over a week and I am applying a month later, which is 3 months away from the test. The money is really for the exam and other expenses and not only for the purpose of getting a visa. Do I have to explain this apparent transfer to the ECO (NB...I work with a state government agency and have only been paid up till October, hence the paucity of money in my account prior to booking for the exam). Helpful answers will be appreciated justwise, FrontPageLawyer and other seasoned contributors, your opinions and advice will be welcome Thanks |

Good day to all the gurus in the house,pls I would like an advice on how to go about my UK visa application cos of the bad experience I have in the past...I applied sometimes in 2007 for UK visa by an agent which was denied and I didn't see the refusal letter cos it was arrange by a friend of my mom,my mum has a resident permit in the UK and my Lil brother hold a red passport and they both live there for almost 17yrs but they do visit nigeria every year for the ileya festival..after my 1st visa was refuse in 2007 I decided to further my education since I just finish my ND then so I got admission to a private University and graduated in 2010 went for NYSC and came back so when I couldn't secured a job my mum decided she invite me so we begin another processing in Feb 2012 and I handle it myself but unfortunately I was refuse based on 3 reason,firstly I didn't state it that have been refuse a UK visa in the past 10yrs my reason was I didn't know so my fault,secondly I change my date of birth in my passport from 1984 to 1986,lastly my mum name was changed as she uses another name on her resident permit..I was allow to appeal so I got a lawyer to check into it and he defended my very well with reasonable point and valid evidence.my mom attended the hearing in court 3 times cos we opted for oral hearing...so on the day of the final judgement my mom said the jury were worried that if they allow the ECO to issue my visa they are in doubt that I will return back to nigeria and she try to convince them but they said I should apply a fresh application now or in the future cos I don't have any thing to tie me back home....so now am working with financial firm in Victoria island for 2 years and a month now and am on a salary of 70k monthly,married with a kid and living together...so I want to go on a vacation to visit my mom especially my Lil bro cos he was the one who insisted I should go and apply for a fresh visa,my mom works and she will be the one to sponsor my trip to and fro and accommodate me for 10 days while all I need to just do is source for my BTA of 350Gbp to do some shopping for myself,kid and wife....so please kindly advice me on what to do and what are my chances to secure the visa cos I don't want to be refuse again...though am going to explain all what happen with my 1st and 2nd visa refusal..tanx and looking forward to your great advice.justwise am waiting to read from you |

wallg123: Fortunately or unfortunately the appeal has been sent already so nothing that will be said here now will make much of a difference however, getting your MP involved is a good thing and your wife's pregnancy will all play a positive part. Please don't listen to people who will encourage you to fight the case on human right or right to family life ground because your chances of winning it on those grounds are limited and it will take years. Obviously your first marriage was a sham one and that is one of the sticking point which I guess you addressed in the appeal. Another issue is living illegally and studying even when you got no right to remain in the UK. Keep a close contact with your MP because he will make a difference in this case. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by justwise(m): 12:17am On Feb 27, 2016 |
RetroBoy: You have to, it's very important that you do that, you have to explain why they are contributing to your trip. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by justwise(m): 12:27am On Feb 27, 2016 |
abbey1986: Doing the section in bold is very important. Will your mom be sending you any document? |

justwise: Yes for sure am going to add it for enough evidence and after getting all that will they consider me the visa base on past experience with them. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by justwise(m): 12:57am On Feb 27, 2016 |
abbey1986: That is entirely up to ECO to decide, nobody here can answer that with any degree of authority |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by RetroBoy: 6:44am On Feb 27, 2016 |
justwise:Thanks. I will do that. Does the ECO need proof of the identity or my relationship of who transferred money to my account? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by FrontPageLawyer(m): 7:04am On Feb 27, 2016 |
RetroBoy: Sponsor's identity is inconsequential, but a signed sponsorship letter is important. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by justwise(m): 11:08am On Feb 27, 2016 |
RetroBoy: If they family members yes you have to but if the opposite is the case then no. |

abbey1986:70,000 ngn salary? Do you have any property etc? The way I see it, you have no solid ties here and can easily not return. Maybe you hold on until you start earning more? |

kuchikau1:You don't pay anytin. That's what i'm saying...its a full scholarship |
