MadameKofo:When are you starting the job? When will you be in uk, when is the baby due? Best bet is to apply first and sort out the baby when he/she is here |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by MadameKofo: 11:06pm On Jul 16, 2017 |
Advisory: Thank you for your response. My husband is starting work in September so we'd be in UK around that time, baby is due in October. Are you suggesting we all apply together now, then apply for baby alone later? Or do we apply for both kids at the same time. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 5:05am On Jul 17, 2017 |
MadameKofo: Baby is not yet born. So the unborn child cannot be included in the application now. Apply with existing family members and get into UK and delivery there. Just hold enough fund for child delivery and associated expenses that will arise. If the child is born in the UK, the child will be permitted to stay as long as the parents have valid work permit visas. If you want take this option, I will advise that you read up on rights of a child born in the UK to non-permanent resident parents. Alternatively you can wait to delivery in Nigeria and apply later with the baby to join your husband and kid. Note the UK immigration laws can change anytime, so seize the time now to get into the UK. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 5:27am On Jul 17, 2017 |
castiello: Your chances are very limited. The ECO suspected that you used your previous visa for other purposes and not for the training. Secondly your intention to visit London because you where in Leicester and not able to during your last visit did not convinced the ECO. You are most likely to be denied again unless you can addressed the issues raised by the ECO. What you need to do in your next application is show documentation that you indeed attended the training. This will require a letter from the previous training organizers detailing every aspect and steps of the training and why it took 25 days instead of initial numbers of days applied for. If the training did not last for 25 days, you will need to explain to ECO what businesses you carried out from the remaining number days. |

ekpotek:Child (baby born in the uk)will be allowed to live in the without visa provided you guys aren't travelling and when you ILR can register the child as a citizen. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by castiello(m): 8:31am On Jul 17, 2017 |
ekpotek: Thanks for your reply, the trip took a wrong turn due to Nigerian wahala of placing limit on international transactions could not get a flight that suit my budget so I need to be flexible on my dates of return to get a good price after the training I also attend a leadership course which I have handouts, as prove and this my next trip I will show prove ofbtraning payment and invitation I can't pay 2000£ just to go gain entry at least I left the uk the last time that's what matters I have details this reason in a separate letter |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by MadameKofo: 9:11am On Jul 17, 2017 |
Advisory and Ekpotek thank you for your responses. The issue now is that i intend having my baby in the US. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Nobody: 10:06am On Jul 17, 2017 |
MadameKofo:Why the US? If you going to the UK on tier 2, in five years the kid will be British when you become Permanent resident. The hospital Bill will be free for you in the UK on a tier 2 Visa and you will spend lots of money in America. Your Kid being American does not give him any special right in the UK at all and you will still have to apply for a visa for him. Double cost But in the UK it is free NHS for delivery and if you do not have any plans of leaving the country for the next 5 years, you will not need to apply for a visa for your baby provided you deliver in the UK. But if you end up delivering in the US, you will need to apply for a VISA for the baby. But my advise is do your VISA now and do the baby's when he/she arrives. NOTE: Child care in UK is expensive as per Nursery school 46-53 pounds per day. So you need all the money you can save. 1 Like |

senn:Did they take payment over the phone for the call? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Sagamaje(m): 10:15am On Jul 17, 2017 |
@Senn I called Sheffield this morning about my wife's application and was told decision not yet made. The only surprising thing is the £20 that was removed from the card but only spoke with them for 1.23 minutes (when d call was picked). Is this what you experienced as well? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Nobody: 10:24am On Jul 17, 2017 |
Sagamaje:When did your wife apply again? what centre? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by MadameKofo: 10:35am On Jul 17, 2017 |
Thank you for the insightful reply Advisory. God bless you sir |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Sagamaje(m): 11:20am On Jul 17, 2017 |
@ Advisory my wife applied on 5th of June (standard visa) |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by senn: 1:24pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
Yes, they took £20 pounds at first but they will only charge you for the amount of minutes you speak to the agent. Not that they will take the whole £20. They just took it as like down payment to be sure you actually have money in the card Sagamaje: |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Sagamaje(m): 1:52pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
@Senn thanks . Though I called twice cus they did not pick the first time and I had to call the second time. It was the second time that the call was picked. Though they removed £20 the first time and did again the second time making £40 total. At the end of the day the lady said not yet decided after my wife told her her GWF number. UK is a big time shit in visa application delay |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Austine2020: 5:07pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
Advisory:Its not true, if the baby is born in the USA, the baby automatically becomes a US Citizen,therefore the Baby doesn't need a UK visa to visit Uk. Infact U have 6months duration of stay anytime u visit the UK once u are a US Citizen. 1 Like |

Thanks Mr. Justwise, we plan to do hotel reservation for my mother because it won't be easy to get letter from landlord. Will it makes sense to do hotel reservation for her since we are inviting her over. justwise: |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by veleta: 5:57pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
@Austin2020,yeah,the baby is entitled to six months visa by virtue of being an American citizen but before the expiration of the six months visa,the baby needs to apply for Uk visa under the category which I presume is Tier 2 that the child's parents are on.Upon entry in Uk,the baby can stay for six months without visa but before the 6 months visa expires,he/she needs to get a visa in UK in the category which the parents are otherwise the child would be staying illegally. Its expensive to deliver in US but then if the parents can afford it then they should go for it atleast the child would have dual citizenship. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 7:07pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
McGibson: No! |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 7:31pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
castiello: Well take my advise and provide documentation to show and detailed all your activities for the 25 days. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 7:35pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
MadameKofo: Having the baby in the US is okay. The child will have US citizenship and can travel to the UK without visa. However, the child will need a visa to stay in the UK beyond 180 days. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by McGibson(m): 7:57pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
ekpotek: OK thanks boss |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Nobody: 10:30pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
ekpotek:People this woman is going to uk as a Tier 2 worker, the us citizenship does not mean anything in this case. She enters for 6 months and still need to apply for a Tier 2 visa so what's the advantage of the 6 months ? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Nobody: 10:32pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
Austine2020:Remember we aren't talking about visiting visas unless if you saying the baby can be returning every six months from America to visit the parents in uk. They will have to apply for a visa for the baby if delivered in US so that the kid can be in the uk beyond the six months. But if delivered in the UK baby won't need visa if you guys aren't travelling during the 5 years. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Austine2020: 4:08am On Jul 18, 2017 |
Advisory:Ok, i can understand u better now. |
