Veacon: If you are getting married in a local registry, I don't think they'd ask you for your fiance nationality (as long as your fiance is Nigerian by blood - And does not physically look white). Just apply to get married in a local registry. You will get a marriage certificate. That is all the UK govt want to proof you are married.ANd yes, you can get married in october and apply for a visa in November. I know this because I have been though this. But that was 8 years ago, not sure if the process has changed though. Just my 2 cent. |

edmasta01: Hello ekpotek, EndlessGrace, churockng, justwise, blza and everyone else that contributed to my post above. I want to sincerely thank you all for all your advice/suggestions. My Mum was FINALLY granted a 6 months Visa by following all your suggestions as a result of my post above. Here's what I did (for the benefit of others who might have this same issue): 1. She wrote a cover letter stating that she has travelled before, and never defaulted on her travel history. She also stated that she is a home maker and even though she stated that she was unemployed, it's because she does not collect an official salary with pay slip. 2. I sent her £1,100 towards the cost of flight (flights in august were expensive when we reapplied, so I sent enough) through worldremit and included the receipt in the application. 3. I transferred some £3,000 from my savings account into my current account and wrote in my letter of invitation to that effect. I also collected a letter from my UK bank to show that the funds in my savings and current account are available to me to spend. 4. I included a flight itinerary to show the cost of flight and that the amount transferred will cover it. And with lots of prayers (i know...sometimes, it takes that) voila! Thank you everyone!!!! 7 Likes |

Flaame: You've been denied, right? That one is even better because you will see your VO face to face. However, with the UK processing, you only submit your application. If you qualify, you get. If you don't, you won't. Meanwhie, you will still need to say the truth that you were denied US visa before. Good luck! |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 7:11am On Aug 25, 2018 |
edmasta01: Congratulations. I happy to hear that your mum got the visa. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Flaame(m): 8:00am On Aug 25, 2018 |
folmus:Provided u know what u wrote there. How much is the total visa fee? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Veacon: 10:00am On Aug 25, 2018 |
edmasta01: Thank you so much for your advice, and No, he doesn't physically look white...lol. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Veacon: 10:03am On Aug 25, 2018 |
edmasta01: Your 2 cent is very informative and helpful, thank you so much, I appreciate it. And No, he's doesn't look physically white...lol |

ekpotek:I have an issue that borders me... I intend applying for a tourist visa any time soon but I discover that my marriage certificate shows my date of birth as 1981 instead of 1985. hope it will not affect my chances. though my age declaration is 1985 same as my passport |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Flaame(m): 8:26am On Aug 26, 2018 |
galazito:Hmmmm....it will surely deny you a visa if you do not correct it now. It denied my friend a visa this month. Correct it now! |

jennyhumphrey: Hello, do you have any updates about your situation, I also applied for my daughter on the same 27th. Same problem. I've contacted UKVI by phone and email. They said a decision was made 2 Fridays ago and I should have received the passport long ago. They've escalated to Home office. They say I'll get a response in 10 working days. Just waiting |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by jennyhumphrey(f): 12:04pm On Aug 26, 2018 |
No update yet, was discouraged from contacting them because everyone that have contacted them so far are still waiting so I guess it is another money making venture for them oviedike: |

Good Afternoon House, Would it be possible if someone could shed more light on how i can effectively show financial/economic/family ties for my mother in law as i am planning to apply for a 6 month UK visit visa for her? Background information about her - No travel history - Full time house wife - "depends on her husband" - Presently no huge saving in her account. "less than 100k" - I will be taking full responsibilities of her expenses e.g accommodation, flight, feeding. - Would it be advisable to send some money to her account for like 6 months so she can show this or my account only would be sufficient? - What other documents can help to show ties? Thanks |

solaiphones:oga and I received mail for pickup on a normal day 15 working days but it didn't favor me ![]() |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Olugerm(m): 6:10pm On Aug 26, 2018 |
Pls I want to reapply and I need format on how to write cover letter abt my personal and economic circumstances |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by galazito: 10:59pm On Aug 26, 2018 |
Flaame:please do you have idea how I will go about correcting it... or I should go to court and declare it as a mistake what do you think? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Scottiemi(f): 11:12pm On Aug 26, 2018 |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by edmasta01: 11:41pm On Aug 26, 2018 |
fumat: I am not an expert, but from my own little experience of applying on behalf of my mum, the following documents will support/help: 1. Her marriage certificate (if she and your FIL have one) 2. A letter of authorization (written by your FIL giving permission for his wife to visit the UK) 3. Your FIL passport photo page attached to the letter above + his bank statement (if he sends money to your MIL account regularly). 4. Any assets such as landed property or house with their name on (e.g. C of O, Land Deeds) 5. ANy circumstances that will show she will remain in Nigeria e.g. Does she take care of anyone? Is there proof of it? I am sure some of the gurus in the house will give further insight too. Just my 2 cent ![]() |

Scottiemi: Did you track your at tlscontact website, what is the current status there. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by alert20: 8:11am On Aug 27, 2018 |
funlad26: i did biometric same day with you a tls ikeja... 15 working days has passed on 24th, i think their is too much application because of the summer rush. i think if your application is delay for more than the normal 15 working days and you did not get the not straightforward mail , i believe your visa will be issue... reason i receive my first application exactly 15working days and was denied, but today makes it the 16working days and i am feeling positive about this.. lets wait for the pick up mail i am sure they have issue the visa already... meanwhile did you get the not straightforward email?? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by fumat: 8:16am On Aug 27, 2018 |
edmasta01: Thank you edmasta01 for the info and guidance. Will try to see if I can get the above as advised. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by MollyBank: 9:07am On Aug 27, 2018 |
galazito: Or they may not notice it. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by galazito: 12:22pm On Aug 27, 2018 |
MollyBank:hnnnmm...i think is risky for that gamble. maybe I should use high court affidavit of marriage to back it up? |

jennyhumphrey: My daughter's own visa renewal application just changed to decision made after staying on awaiting decision for over 3 weeks. Next step is ready for collection. You may want to track yours. Does anyone know how many days from decision made to ready for collection? |

I finally called ukvi on my Son's application and I was informed a decision has been made. Immediately after the call, I tracked the application on the tls website and the decision made column has been ticked. So hopeful at this stage. |
