crossbonehelped: First. Your dad is not a home tie. Your work and career is more of a home tie than your dad. Having said that. If you do not want the money paid into your bank account now to avoid inflating your bank balance. You should consider including copies of your cooperatives pass book in your documentation. Then declared in the application form that you have N800K savings. Then include a cover note highlighting the deduction from your payslips and corrobate it with same entries into your cooperative pass book. By this way the ECO will actually see your savings in the pass book supported by a letter from your cooperative chairman written on the cooperative letter head that the money is available to you on request. |

oloolo: If you go ahead with this story, I am sure you will have a big problem at the POE. This is why many people are turned back from the POE because of incoherent stories from the application purpose of visit. I will advise you to maintain what you have in your application to avoid having issues. You can still defend the changes in your arrival date but if you should go ahead with this stories of yours, I am sure you could find yourself in naija with the next available flight. Your visa is just a privilege not a right, so your fate will be decided at the point of entry but to avoid having issues, forget your story. |

phraoh: The issue there is that if you to use Ikeja, be ready to pay handling charges of $$$. You should consider sending them an email for them to change your submission centre to VI. All documents either original or otherwise must be photocopy into A4 size. Your original documents will be return back to you. I advise you copy all your documents including your international passport pages to avoid making these copies at exhorbitant price at the centre. 1 Like |

oloolo: Yes you can change your traveling plan. The question is do you have an Irish visa. Without valid Irish visa, going from London to Dublin even by bus is illegal. The POE will only ask you some few questions about your visit to the UK. If you decide to stay one night, fine. Beside you may be unlucky to be check at the border between U.K and Ireland. |

KEYSERSOZE: Only the ECO can determine that. You previous visit and immigration history to the UK will count here. Be honest and tell the ECO about your salary payments. |

ekpotek: Thanks, But my appointment and submission is for VI centre and not Ikeja. I just didnt realise that they have different website when i was registering with TLC after payment on the Visa4Uk site. So i registered at the Ikeja own and not VI. Is that a problem? Cos i would assume that TLC is same regardless. |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 2:03pm On Mar 31, 2017 |
phraoh: No problem only that you will pay handling fee if you decide to submit at Ikeja, regardless of your choice. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 2:07pm On Mar 31, 2017 |
lexyj123: Use a dollar ATM card. If you do not have one too bad. Or ask someone with such a card to pay for you. |

Thanks for the help so far. Need help in filling some parts of my application. There's this particular part I'm asked how much I earn monthly after tax. Parts of my salary however go towards a loan repayment and my cooperative savings. Wondering if I should add all together or just put in what enters my bank account alone? Would be submitting my payslips to show how much I'm being paid, tax deducted and other deductions too. Would appreciate the help. Thanks. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by shessyfavour: 7:49am On Apr 01, 2017 |
Please, is the extra $70 going to be paid online with the visa fee or would be paid separately at the centre? Thanks |

Captgb: @captgb How are you doing? Congratulations on your family permit. Please just wanted to ask. Did you send all original documents to Sheffield or you submitted everything in Nigeria. Thanks |

Good day house, Please what's the minimum I can have in my bank account when applying for a UK visa. Just want to visit for a week. Thanks. 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 2:15pm On Apr 01, 2017 |
crossbonehelped: Deduct just the tax to arrived at what you earn monthly. Savings and loan repayments are temporary deductions which are part of your monthly earning. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 2:18pm On Apr 01, 2017 |
smilz: There is no minimum or maximum amount. What matters is your home ties and sufficient funds to cover your trip without stress. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 2:20pm On Apr 01, 2017 |
shessyfavour: You pay the $70 online with the visa fee. |

lexyj123: I used paga to pay for uk visa fees. It was easy, I just upgraded the accout type to tier 3 (by submitting some documetation). To my surprise the rate they even used was 314 and the amount was debited from my naira account. You can check them out online. 2 Likes |

Thanks Ekpotek. Last Questions: Pension is deducted from my monthly salary and I have been contributing since 2012 I started working using my previous company name. I spoke with Stanbic way back on changing details on thw company name but they said I could continue using same account. Please can I include my Pension Registration Certificate OR just leave off to avoid contradictions or include an explanation in my cover letter.also is there any need to explain like a 300k debit on my account ekpotek: |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by dcutey: 5:38pm On Apr 01, 2017 |
mialate: Mialate, in my opinion I don't think it matters what company is on your pension account since it's a retirement savings account but you can state that you started your career and opened the account while still with your former employer. I'm planning to submit six months statement of my retirement savings account as an economic tie. You can explain the 300k debit if it will strengthen your application. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by mialate: 6:34pm On Apr 01, 2017 |
Thanks dcutey. I will explain the debit as it was made to my sister as a loan. dcutey: |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 7:19am On Apr 02, 2017 |
dcutey:. @Mialate, @dcutey. This is very good and smart move in my opinion. A lot of applicants do not know that a pensionable job is a very strong home and economic ties, as it demonstrates to the ECO that you're not likely to overstay by AWOL. Besides you can only access your retirement saving after retirement at 60-65 years. However, there must substantial amount in your retirement savings to satisfy the ECO. Go ahead and include your retirement saving account documentation. |

However, applicants who wish to submit their applications at the Victoria Island Centre will now be subject to the User Pay fee. |
