ekpotek: He might not be able to clear that as this might be a hefty sum for him to pay,For instance if he start his business say about 5yrs ago for argument purposes,he will have to pay 5% of his turn over in that 5yrs, let's assume the turn over is #50 million,it means he will pay #2.5 in taxes for those periods before they can now allow him to start on a clean note. Company Tax clearance is just for added value when making visa application,it is not cast in concrete that he must present one,though advisable,let him try out and give us a feedback,who knows he might get it |

I didnt remember saying I have not been paying tax or that i plan to evade it. I just asked if UK visa can be approved without the tax clearance. I know people get canadian visa without it and just want to confirm if its like that with UK. ekpotek: 1 Like |

Hi guys, Can I use a bank statement with july 18 as closing date for an application am submitting first week of September ? Thanks for quick responses |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 7:42pm On Aug 29, 2017 |
eyilore2014: Okay, Sorry I misunderstood your post. Anyway, Note that UK visa processing rely heavily on the documents you submitted. Ask yourself what will the ECO says if you provided company documents and a company bank account balance of 10M without tax clearance. Pls check the UKVI website for list of documents require for visit visa! |

Monthly salary of 100k and want to visit wife and kid in the uk as kid Nigerian passport (with British passport though) is being delayed for how how many months now. I can transfer upto 500k in my account from a business though buh the biz not in my name. Wife not yet working but living on child benefit and others.. what is my chances of getting a uk visit visa if I apply. I will have all necessary letter from work to back it up that am on leave and my recent promotion letter to manager with more increment soon even. Please advise,,, thanks |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Nobody: 8:12pm On Aug 29, 2017 |
Thanks for your response. Should I go ahead and apply with only the coy account, tax clearance and other docs or i should build a personal account by transferring money from my coy account monthly as salary to my personal account for 4months before applying? . ekpotek: |

AbdulKola: Moving funds into your account from some business not in your name is risky as you can't give a befitting explanation for this. If you are planning to stay with your wife in the UK, then it is an automatic refusal as your wife is relying on public funds. I don't think this is the right time to apply... 1 Like |

Hi everyone, I need some advice. I'm traveling to UK to join my father on a family reunion visa, will i experience any shortcomings if I use a one way ticket. Many thanks. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 4:12am On Aug 30, 2017 |
eyilore2014: You may wish to try. However you must have documents to convince the ECO on the following 1. How does your company operate? 2. How do you make profit? 3. What % of your profit goes to home keeping and family expenses? 4. Do you have employee? How many? Are they on salary? Who would manage the company in your absence? 5. Do you have 6 months of receipts of purchases and sales? Payments for services? Book keeping documents? 6. How is payment made into your company bank account? Copies of Cheques? Bank transfers? 7. Letter from other shareholder authorizing you to use company funds for vacation. 8. Wife documentation eg marriage certificate, change of name, if wife is workiing, letter of introduction, payslips, bank statement, etc. If wife is into business same documentation as hubby. 9. Kid birth certificate 10. Proof of properties/residence eg NEPA bill If you have documentation to back these up, go ahead. If not, you may start thinking of separating your business acccount from personal account. |

Event20: Depend on the type of visa stamp you have. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 4:20am On Aug 30, 2017 |
AbdulKola: Dude you cannot visit your family living on benefit� You will not be able to convince the ECO that you can support yourself and would not recourse to public fund as your family is already on public fund. Wait till they exit benefit before applying. 1 Like |

mokikeoj: Thank you. I went to TLS to withdraw my passport yesterday. I didn't get any mail. Hopefully, I will be asked to come get it today. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Event20: 7:54am On Aug 30, 2017 |
ekpotek:What do you mean by " type of visa stamp you have". As I had said its a family reunion visa stamp. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 8:23am On Aug 30, 2017 |
Event20: Never heard of a UK family reunion visa. It is either visitor visa, work visa, study visa, entrepreneurship/investor visa or dependent visa. Only the visitor visa require a return airline ticket. Hope this help. 1 Like |

Brightingsus: Pls could you take us through your documentation maybe there are things we could learn from it.....I know all situations are different but we could learn. How old was she. Did she a good bank statement or was she working. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Event20: 10:05am On Aug 30, 2017 |
ekpotek:Thanks for the help, and its a dependent visa. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 10:18am On Aug 30, 2017 |
Event20: Okay. Trouble is convincing the airline to carry you. Most airlines flying from Nigeria will still demand a return ticket for a dependent visa. You will need to be prepared to argue this out, or they will not allow you to board. So I suggest that you check first with your preferred airline before going ahead to buy a one-way ticket. Cheers |

oloolo: Age is 64. Bank statement had a closing balance of roughly 150k naira. She has never been in employment as she's supported by family. No pension or anything like that. I explained everything that defines her circumstances. If you have more specific questions I am always here. |

Hello All, Please I have decided to contact UKVI by phone to demand they make a decision on my application and return my passport. I applied with my mum and sister whom have collected their passport with their visa and the already booked their flight. Bcosz of me they had to postpone, as today was suppose to be our travelling date. why do UKVI hold on to people's pp without making a decision, mostly for a visit visa? I mean it is just a visit for crying out loud, nothing so serious. If they are not convince on giving a visa, they should just refuse with reason in reasonable time. Coz I dont know why you will hold someone's pp for a tourist visa, not like I wanna go visit my ancestor o or my family, just tourist. And not like I wrote on my form I must visit, dont know why they are holding my pp hostage. This UKVI really need to chill on this atitude o. I will never go to their front again for a visa, If not that I will not be able to get my money back, I would have just withdrawn the application. But becoz they wont refund, I cannot let my money go like that, them go do the work wey I pay them to do. I will tell them blantly on the phone that I do not care whether you are investigating shit or not, make a decision right now, either you approve or refuse, just decide and return my pp before next week runs out. RUBBISH sORRY ALL O, that I am lamenting here, I just need to vent somewhere. My question is like how much recharge card should I buy, to call them on the phone that will be enough to speak their head off. 4 Likes |
