Hello gurus... please help...
1. I don't understand what the ECO meant by saying your salary is transferred into your gtbank saving account. Salary is not by cash but transfer from my employers company's account to my savings account... is it a crime ?

2. No regular withdrawals- on this account within 6 months I have 179 debits and 15credits... the 9 other credits on my salary savings account is not up to 50K.. it's just mere refunds

3. 160 unspecified currency- this is the money I personally spend and give my siblings... on my personal letter I specified that 160ponds.

4. I have a business I run... I have the CAC docs and tax... I make an average of 50K per month... the 5deposits are for clients I have orders from. They pay into my biz account and I run their transactions from there... I used it in purchasing goods... I didnt even stated that I'm using my business account for my trip... I have enough balance in my saving account about 2m and 600K on biz account.

Please where did I get it wrong. I want to reapply and fill forms today.

Sorry for the refusal bro...i think this boils down to your cover letter...i think you didnt explain most things like how much you spend per month, because the ECO wrote "160 (unspecified currency)" which means you didnt state if its 160 naira or pounds per month...and there were irregular deposits which you didnt explain in your cover letter...i just think this might be the problem but gurus in the house should be able to analyse this better...all the best in your next application

Sorry for the refusal. Me think this refusal is a typical an example where the ECO is confused and unable to determine your financial ties. Basically, the ECO was worried that you earn over 400K per month. This income level is good for a visa visa. Why then did you have to complicate issue by adding a side business of N50K per month that does not significantly change your financial ties. This give an impression either you do not take your employment seriously permitting you to run a business. When ECO talk of no regular withdrawal, it meant that the ECO did not see withdrawal after salary payment each month to meet monthly expenses. In short the ECO is not clear how you are spending your salary including giving out £160 to family member. To re apply you will to explain thoroughly how you save over N2M within 6 months in line with your monthly income and expenses. This must be supported by documents. These are my thoughts.

The refusal letter stated that purpose was to enter the UK as a tourist. Not business visit.

Thank you guru ekpotek... yes I'm going to the U.K. as a tourist... I added my business profile because that's another tie to my homeland. You know no matter how comfortable you're, you want to make more money. That's my intent for my business to have a side income.

Are you advising me to remove my business entirely or add it as an added advantage?

Good Morning, How come you own a company and you still issued ur self payslip? you even submitted an employment letter , Who emplyed who? How come a company that was established in 2017 paid tax already, how much tax did you pay and how did you evaluate ur tax ? did you aswell deduct tax on ur payslips? I want to believe you got the Eco confused with ur application, An introduction letter from your company will do, tax cert is good , cover letter is important, a companys account and savings account would be perfect for you, all companys documents, like invoices, rec3ipts article of memorandum would be fine .

solaiphones:

Any evidence of strong social and economic tie to home country

Olugerm:

@olugerm, what type of visa did you apply for and what are the document you submitted.

Hi house
My visa application has not been decided on since l did my biometrics on June 12. The date of entry l put on my application is 21st of August.
Can a visa, which has been delayed, still be issued even after the date on your application for entry into UK has passed?
